:lol:

seemed good to me?

this is amazing. Please let’s make this a thing

First time since 1973 to beat them! MASSIVE win! I cant wait for these MW matchups! Great to restart a rivalry with NV

best win in a while.

So class got out early.. WOWZA!

I have class during the game but am SO curious how it goes! Big game against a future conference member.

Listen, I would like to play Sac year in and year out too, and I think Stetson is a goofy level of competition to be playing (with no regional relevancy), but it is not a UC Davis problem that Sac State left a conference that solidified the rivalry year in and year out without a plan to join a conference/scheduling agreement that would provide stability for future schedules. Davis had scheduling figured out and planning ahead while the Sac admin rushed to leave a conference and try to move up without any confirmation they would be able to fill out a schedule. Realistically Davis and Sac will probably both be in the FBS in the future, and maybe they can figure out scheduling in the future even if Sac is FBS and Davis is still FCS (like we did when Davis was d2 and Sac was d1-aa) but acting like its a Davis problem that Sac made rash decisions that screwed up their scheduling enough that they cant fill out a schedule in the next year doesn't make sense to me.

I do have to say that this Causeway is one of the most exciting in a while no matter the future of it... looking forward to seeing the matchup of a Coombs defense and a Marion offense!

Ticket sales are going really fast. Other than pockets of premium seating on the home side, the visitor side has like 50 seats left.

MSU fans seem to be giving high praise to plough and Pinnick, as deserved. Insane production for a freshman and a 2nd year coach.

that Idaho one was just a goofy, downright bad situation. Def have improved in some ways but still think penalties are a big issue for sac. Run game has improved a ton

Release stadium and other facility improvement plans this week to build up talk about the school before the causeway classic, market the crap out of the game and get Davis fans the most optimistic and rocking as possible before next weekend. I feel like having the tower light up after wins (of any sport) increases visibility for the teams on campus, great addition. Football stadium stuff (suites, closing the bowl a bit/potential future seating addition drawings, concession/bathroom improvements) but also need to hopefully address basketball concession and bathroom issues + potentially make it feel less wide upon above the lower seating areas.

I think we are a really good matchup against this sac team. Obviously it will be a high stakes and 100% on each side endeavor but I believe we can pull it out. Would be a great way to move into the post season (and maybe just maybe get some folks back?)

HUGE game and potentially the last successive causeway classic. Not only big for 2 programs that are getting more attention than ever nationally, but both need the win. Even bigger of a game as a rivalry. Hoping for a huge crowd and a huge bounce back win at home.

Bummer. Real bummer especially with so many opportunities. This game was winnable. I don’t know if it’s the lack of depth or just pressure on the passing but damn. Fire the team up for next week and get into the playoffs.

Beat sac. In front of a roaring crowd. Perfect weather coming up. This should be a game.

The crowd next weekend might be insane.

They have time if they make this fg but the tempo needs to go up.
