  • Quarterfinals Week 16: UC Davis (11-2) @ South Dakota (10-2)
    Just stopped in to say that I am cheering for you this weekend and hoping for a Big Sky rematch in the Semifinals. I think Davis is the toughest team we have played this year and I know your team has a chip on its shoulder with the way Lan has been disrespected in the post season awards.

    I didn't make this trip but I heard about a charter about 3 weeks ago, the Alumni association does it and I think it was down and back same day.
    Usually we have charters for away playoffs games, this is the first one I remember being for a BSC game. Cats usually have pretty good turn out for CA games, we have a lot of alum and former players from CA

    I don't see USD beating NDSU even in Vermillion. If you drop to #5 today I think Next week the selection committee will put you at #4. If you hadn't rallied late in the game I think you might have dropped a few spots.

    All I can say is that I think UC Davis should keep their #4 ranking. Definitely a top 4 team.

    My final thoughts on this matchup. I think this will me a really good game for football fans that don't have allegiances to either team. The matchup of MSU's #1 offense against a defense that is playing at a very high level should make for a good game. Likewise the matchup of your highly rated Offense and our no-name defense will be interesting, how doesn't MSU contain Lan and and a very efficient passing offense.
    Both sides of the ball will be an interesting game.

    Finally, you guys have been great to talk with and I am happy that you have a top level team and hope that you can continue in future years, regardless of how this season ends. I have always viewed Davis and a high class team and am glad your program is where it is.

    If winner today loses next week and loser today wins next week then co-champions but winner today gets autobid.

    Winner today is at minimum conference co-champion so they get a trophy and hold the autobid tie-breaker.

    Was in Calgary a few years ago (2021) for work and went to a game there, not sure if Jake was on the team then, Bo Levi was the QB, Cant remember now but the QB from the other team was FCS too. Lot of FCS and Big Sky players in the CFL.

    Pretty much; no FBS schools and you have to go 2 states away to find a pro team of any type. So this is all we got.

    In 2005 one of the all time MSU great QB's Travis Lulay had graduated. We went into the season with a lot of transfers and pretty much not knowing what we had. Our first game we beat FBS Colorado under new head coach Dan Hawkins (who you know). Our second game we came home and lost to DII Chadron State on the legs of future NFL star Danny Woodhead. Our third game was the loss to UC Davis. Then we rattled off 6 straight wins followed by a loss in Missoula. We made the playoffs and had our first playoff win in many years and followed it up with a loss to Appalachia State who went on to win it all that year.
    We had a lot of off field problems and the coach was fired.
    Like I said that year was a rollercoaster ride of emotions.

    Yeah, I'm really liking your coach, He was on the 2006 UCD team that we played and lost to. That was a rollercoaster of a ride for the Cats that year.

    Mellott, Hastings and Chachere all pretty good Sr QB's this year.
    Seems like I am forgetting another BSC Sr QB.
    Add in Gronowski and Miller top Sr QB's in the FCS

    Next year its going to be interesting who rebuilds. Cats will lose a lot off of Defense, but Offense will be about the same but without Mellott.

    Mellott has only been running 6-10 times a game, a couple in each game are just scrambles, the rest a pulls from a zone read or RPO. I think I have only seen 1 or 2 designed QB runs all year.

    Our MO is to run the back right at you and force the safeties up and get their eyes in the box. then move to various short passes mixed with the run. Once your secondary is fully stressed, Tommy will pull it and take the yards himself. He still has that ability but they will put you to sleep thinking that we are not going to run the QB, then he will take off on a big run.

    Chambers is on the staff as an offensive analysist and is usually the one Tommy talks with as they look over the plays on the Ipad.
