The rumor I posted earlier was that after surgery, he'll prepare for his professional career.

BigSky TV had the links up around 11 or 11:30 a.m. last weekend.

I need to know this stuff since I don't know if I can make the next two home games.

#3 UC Davis playing against the winner of South Dakota State and Idaho State

I'm not a fan of playing against Idaho State again though.

That will likely change after the Eastern Washington - UC Davis game.

Should I revive this thread again?

#4 UC Davis playing the winner of McNeese and San Diego

I'm looking at Northern Arizona's stats at the Cal Poly game:
here

Brandon Porter is their leading rusher, second leading receiver, and second leading quarterback.

I'm most impressed with North Dakota State at #23.
That school is really in a different tier for FCS.
I just hope that we stay away from playing against them in the playoffs unless if it's the championships.

Does anyone know how serious the key injuries are for Northern Arizona?

Here's an update to the Massey rankings related to our schedule;

https://www.masseyratings.com/cf2018/ncaa-d1/ratings

Current - School - (Previous)

#30 Stanford (#24)
#86 UC Davis (#98)
#97 Eastern Washington (#105)
#126 Idaho State (#130)
#137 San Jose State (#154) Up 2
#157 Montana (#147) Down 1
#159 Idaho (#152) Down 1
#179 Cal Poly (#187) Up 1
#184 Northern Arizona (#172) Down 1
#192 San Diego (#189)
#197 Northern Colorado (#206) Up 1
#209 Sacramento State (#199) Down 1

I personally prefer to rank it this way since it's easier to have an idea of what we can expect from future competition given the history of who we played against.

Our win against San Jose State is now looking more impressive since they've finally won.

I'll ask in the Northern Arizona thread about the status on their injuries.

I believe it was because one of the Montana players was twisting an Aggie ankle after the play was over. The coach and the Aggie receiver were angry about that.

i think it was 46 points in about 18 minutes.

I don't want to start an Eastern Washington thread unless it's a week before game time.
However, rumor has it that Gage Gubrud's college career is over. He'll have surgery and get ready for his pro career.

It's in this thread below;

What type of a defense do the Aggies play? I want to watch some YouTube tutorial videos on it.

That Oakland place looks huge!

This is my cynical view of AnyGivenSaturday:

Saturday: Posts on game score updates
Sunday: Posts expressing shock on various top 25 upsets
Monday: Negative reactions to various FCS polls
Tuesday to Friday: Posts on why your poll sucks and why my team should be ranked higher

Rinse and repeat for about twelve weeks.

Since I'm killing time until the bay area traffic dies down, I'm currently interested in how Massey ranks all of our opponents in our schedule.

https://www.masseyratings.com/cf2018/ncaa-d1/ratings

Stanford #24
UC Davis #98
Eastern Washington #105
Idaho State #130
Montana #147
Idaho #152
San Jose State #154
Northern Arizona #172
Cal Poly #187
San Diego #189
Sacramento State #199
Northern Colorado #206

If i were to believe these ratings, of which I sort of do, Montana is really equivalent to the talent of Idaho and San Jose State. However, since they're good at home, it will be as competitive as our Idaho State game.

Looking at the rest of the season, we are probably a slight underdog at Eastern Washington if their team is healthy. If their quarterback and other key players are still out, then i definitely like our chances.

We should obviously be favorites against Northern Arizona and especially against Sacramento State.

Damn traffic! I'll just surf the web at Starbucks until traffic dies down.

Someone please post something to read! :)

I'm too lazy to confirm Montana/Montana State's historical schedules, but my impression is that they generally have six home games and they stay away from FBS schools.

If true, then that's one thing I'm jealous about the Montanas or similar schools.That's because that's just a big advantage for playoff implications. You don't get an automatic loss for playing an FBS, and you get an extra game at home.

That's like getting a bonus 1.5 wins every year over a typical FCS school.

Any thoughts?

Hmmm. Santa Rosa is almost two hours from my home. That's a tad too far for me.

I wish there was a cool regular spot in the San Francisco/peninsula/south bay/east bay area for Aggie fans to watch Aggie sports games. Are there any? Or are there potential spots? It just seems reasonable that there should be one eventually.

How quickly can i watch a replay of this game? Will the replay be on BigSky TV or Pluto?
