I'm hoping we never see home whites again - Tahoe Blue all the way!

Oh - no band this afternoon. I guess they stayed home to watch football?

Just before the National Anthem Nico suggested they were staying in them until they lose. I'd say it's a good call.

New school colors?? If only we had an in with Nike like a certain university to the north of us.

I saw the score. ICK! Double ICK. The watch later tonight will be painful.

Toke I agree. I suppose they were worried that if Irvine missed the 2nd shot intentionally after making the first they'd have a shot at the rebound and score with maybe another foul. It's all 4D chess to me at the end, though.

It was a good win by the Ags. I'm sure the Anteaters will be VERY grumpy about it. They made some crucial mistakes. Now if the Ags could reliably shoot free throws I'd be happier. Sheesh. Take a lesson from Poly!

Nico played a strong game and Sevilla played a hard defense. Just a fine team effort by the Aggies. And a good game to watch.

I admit I'd like to strangle Turner though. I guess his players are used to him.

The Ags will need to be on target from the 3pt range, I think, and their D will definitely need to be at the highest level. If everyone is healthy and not croaking from the flu then I think we have a pretty good shot at a really good game.

What has happened to Hawai'i in conference?

There was an interesting interaction between an official and the UCD cheer squad who were sitting along the baseline in the blue area. He chased them off - telling them they needed to be behind the white line. He threatened to stop play unless they moved, which they did. I saw them talking with Rocko about it. In the 2nd half they moved to the other end of the court but eventually left before the end of the game.

So I looked up the rule. There's supposed to be "restraining line" 6' back from the baseline. During play no one is to be between that restraining line and the baseline. The backboard's support structure's leading edge is 6' from the baseline. I'm watching the women's game and the restraining line clearly marked on the court at Fullerton.

I've never seen this called before. Maybe it's becoming a player safety thing.

Sevilla was wearing his ankle braces again tonight. He hasn't in the past couple of games, I think.

Someone remind me why we want to go BCS. It makes no sense. None of it makes sense. We're in the business of making talent for the big guys. We can enjoy being competitive on the FCS landscape. But the huge fundraising requirement of FCS? Really? This is a Good Thing? Why? Let's live within our means not chase money where we will always be minor players in a small market.

If UC Davis' reputation comes from football then I don't want any part of an association with the university. Our rep comes from academics and outcomes. Graduating student athletes not semi-pro athletes - or even professional athletes.

Good win for the Aggie women. Bennett seems to have returned her 3pt shot back to form. All five starters were in double figures. Norris had 11 rebounds in the first half!

A quiet 925: no band, no cheer squad and no Woodstocks until midway through the 1st half.

I'm firmly of the opinion that children should not be allowed to be the floor moppers. Putting athlete safety in the hands of children makes no sense. It should be a trained adult who takes the job seriously and knows the details of how and when to do their job. I've seen some of our adults who could hardly stay away and who didn't appear to know their task.

The TV feed was bad in the 2nd half - and there were no 2nd half stats for . . . Reasons.

With about 6:18 left in the 2nd half Rawlings was on a break and made a move to pass to a player in the corner - but with an amazing fake took the ball to the hoop. It was right in front of me and it was just amazing - got oohs and aahs from the crowd. The video picks up again just before it happens. not as dramatic in the video as it was from courtside. My son and I ate it up with a spoon.

The first half was enh but the Ags’ intensity was much better after the break.

Now for the stuff that counts.

That is more poetic but spot on with what we felt. UNC played a very physical game.

I also think that Norris might not be 100%. The way she was moving and shooting free throws didn't look comfortable.

It has screamed up to 43 degrees here about a mile from the stadium. I'm not believing we'll come close to 50 today.

There was not tule fog here in Davis during game time. I'm guessing there won't be any tonight, either. But it'll be cold and damp.

That must have been some 4th quarter. The replay isn't available yet on ESPN+ but I'll rack it up when it is.

Great to see the big Sony cameras and box lenses in place to cover the game, camera operators out testing the field of view, huge production truck hooking up to the electronic infrastructure. I’ve never seen this much great equipment at an Aggie game.

I wonder how well they’ll cover a football disappearing into the descending fog….

No band - they went to the tree lighting downtown. I guess they got paid for that so they blew off the game? Bet they show up for football though so they can be on national TV.

I'm deeply angry that "Bob Hamilton Court" is written beneath the announcers and not where it can be read. When the court is repainted this MUST be fixed.

I understand that there are no indoor restrooms at the Sac State basketball facilities - it's porta potties outside.

What????
