Always the sleeping giant. Always much potential.

Sleepy opening drive.

I already miss the gold helmets. My fave is the gold with the blue Cal Aggie logo.

Viks using lots of RBs so far. Looks like they are trying to keep the Aggie D off balance.

Looks like about 400 on TV. Yikes

Any active PSU board? The one linked on AST hasn't had a post since April...and that was the first one since 2022

Cal looking beautiful on Gameday this morning. The Stanford Steve banter is pretty good. Lynch is definitely going to entertain....
"Puff puff pass" during his picks :D

Man, getting off that plane today from hot af Davis must have been nice for the boys......

Perhaps laziness....
Cal Poly and Sac State don't seem to have a problem selling Adidas gear....

They must have run out of Deschutes!

Legend......Barnum buys $14k worth of beers for fans who showed up during a pandemic game in 2021.

I agree.
We got our upgrade-to-modern stadium (with a little capacity bump) 17 years ago.

They just announced their upgrade-to-modern stadium (with a little capacity bump). We may have them beat by 20 years by the time it opens.

After Sac's announcement, our AD's Tweet, and today's AD email, this is my view of what has transpired over the past few weeks......

UCD Athletics saw Sac's plans on X, felt it had to do something, threw out a weird hail mary Tweet, and waited for a phone call.
We definitely haven't gotten one....and honestly, I wouldn't be so sure Sac has really gotten one either.
These conferences seem to be exhausting every last possible option before turning to an FCS program.

The Athletics Department and University obviously isn't ready, or planning to be in the near future, and that's fine! There is LOTS of work to be done where we are at.
The only mistake here was the Tweet by the AD. It was reckless.

Yes! I remember being blown away by how many fans they brought.

I just read the UC Davis Athletics email: "A Historic September & What's Next For Aggie Sports"

Basically.....AD says "Moving up is complicated and expensive. Please buy season tickets and donate."

No plan. No announcement. Yet.

They were a 1st year football program, playing an FCS-heavy schedule while transitioning to FBS (someone correct me if I'm wrong)
By 2013 they were FBS Conference USA. They miracle of $ (and football in Texas)...Having the Alamodome just sitting there helped a little too.

Wait did I miss something, like did somebody just walk up to the Aggie Pack and start telling them what to do? — Zander

It sounds to me like several people went over to offer help.....

Anytime I hear "funding secured" my first reaction is to roll my eyes.....
I asked this a little while back, but what happens if there is no FBS conference invite? Is there actually $35 million in the bank? No FBS, no Stadium/Arena? My hunch is it all goes away if Sac remains in the FCS.

And, of course, we've never beaten them :D (0-11 since 2005....ouch. This is a D1 stat, I'm not sure if we played them as D2 https://ucdavisaggies.com/sports/football/opponent-history)

Being 2-25 vs. Montana, Montana State and Eastern Washington since going D1 is rough.
But times are a changin!

If the Aggie defense contains Chacere, then this game is over. Point blank. — CA Forever

Agree. Spy the QB, dominate on D. Looking for some nice offensive numbers- Lan needs to (and deserves to) start racking it up.

I also agree with DrMike that Coombs is going to have this one dialed in.

Additionally, margin of victory absolutely matters to the playoff committee. The next 4 games need to be CONVINCING (vs. PSU, CP, EWU & UNC). I'm talking 21+ point wins against the weakest conference teams.

UCD 41 - PSU 17
Viks score 2 rushing TDs and kick a late FG.
