that is the rule now whether the coach leaves or not, correct. Used to be that for grad transfers, now it’s for anyone via transfer portal.

‘ Transferring -- and using the portal, which launched in the fall of 2018 -- has become a staple of college football, even more so after the NCAA eliminated a rule in April 2021 that required transfers to sit out a year at their new university. The rule granted them a one-time waiver to transfer without penalty and with immediate eligibility, and it opened the floodgates of player movement: 1,695 FBS players entered the portal in the 2019-20 cycle, and that number increased to 3,085 in 2021-22.’

Sac 41-10 over Colorado St. Rams are down but that’s still very impressive

Sac 41-10 over Colorado State! Rams are down BUT that’s still impressive

home team has an advantage that we can suit up more guys, maybe get some guys out on special teams. But I think it’s marginal. They will enjoy playing at sea level even if air is warmer

i haven't seen a 'vegas' type spread, but Sagarin has them by 1.5 points. There is a another national guy, Bill Conelly at ESPN, that has it 22.6 to 22.1, us. so a toss up. DRatings has them at 60% chance of winning. I have no clue how accurate these algorithms are at this level, this early in the season.

she was down a section or so to the left of us, but far enough we couldn’t mss add me out what she said. She stood with that cowbell and screeched most the game!

No replays either, if I remember correctly

i believe it was Veteran's Day weekend. I remember going downtown on the Friday (pre basketball game) and it was dead.

referees mic cut out a little. Seemed like our standard scoreboard operator issues persist

the PA? New announcers this year who is a huge upgrade over the past couple yesrs

should be able to see replay on ESPN+

no choice on that one - Big Sky schedule.

I didn’t realize Buchanan was out. No wonder they attacked the edge. Nick Eaton was very active last night. Tedeye is a difference maker

he was moving around okay on the sideline, looked like he was testing something with his leg. Nobody seemed overly concerned. I think he kept his helmet on the whole game

her voice was more annoying than the cow bell! There was a lot of security around, but not the normal ushers. We had students popping in and out of our section throughout the night.

I also liked that they turned the stadium club into a merchandise shop (and beer stand). It was pretty full once they got their card reader working.

I miss the old outlet by the team room (NE concourse)

it was way behind the student section. We could barely hear it. I don’t think there’s any steam, either.

I was looking at USD roster. They show 95 players, 35 from out of state. 11 different states. We have 105 listed with 8 from out of state.


Speaking of out of state, Rex Connors sat the last 2/3 of the game. Didn’t look serious; maybe a muscle pull

I’m always impressed with USD’s offense. Beside the wildcat, they never seem to run the same play twice.

In Gomez’ defense, that kick last night was into the teeth of a stiff wind. From our seats, it looked like it got pushed at the end.
