UC Davis' Meyer ranks second in the Big Sky with 104 tackles on this season, with 63 solos. The Aggie linebacker has also made an impact on defense with 6.5 tackles for loss, a half sack, four interceptions and one defensive touchdown this year.

The Buck Buchanan Award, which was first presented in 1995, was last won by a Big Sky school in 2019 following Dante Olson winning the honor after his season with Montana. The Big Sky has won the award a total of seven times in the award's 29-year history.

The winner, to be selected by a national voting panel, will be announced at the Stats Perform FCS National Awards Banquet on Jan. 4 in Frisco, Texas.

The Cats alumni center chartered a flight and buses to bring their fans out to Davis. Its just a conversation at this point. But should we win on 12/7, I’m not so sure it could be implemented in 5 days.

No way was that stadium 75% full.

I ended up leaving early. The Spartans were throwing a lot of elbows. We’re missing big guys.

Poor Niko is the only big guy we have. He’s not getting much rest

TY is back and working out.

He was pounding his hand on the court in frustration, as though he knew it was a bad injury. He was keeled over as he went up the stairs.

Not to worry, he’s chill.

My son in laws dad is a SEMO football alum. They will have my seats for our first round. They are actually predicting that Illinois State wins.

As Baseball said, students get into regular season games free but have to pay for the playoffs. I guess the NCAA wants their cut.

No, your regular lot 56 parking pass will not be honored. You have to buy a $25 parking pass for your lot 56 parking.

Just what Mike said. The confusing part is that they give you multiple ticket options. Maybe thats for extra tickets. I clicked the option at the top and it automatically added my regular seats. At the bottom is the option to buy student tickets.

Just shows up in your shopping cart. You put in the number. I’m assuming you never get them and athletics distributes them.

When you buy your tickets be sure to buy some student tickets. Students have to pay to get in. We want to fill up that side. They're only $5/ea.

In the auditorium at the training facility

Watch party was fun. Great crowd

Athletics will send out an email this afternoon to season ticket holders with the option to buy playoff tickets.
