    One scary thing is that our scores are on plays we're unlikely to repeat
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    Toki getting some play the last two series
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    They were pushing us around and then changed. We’re so lucky the score is still close.

    I think they don’t want to comment on anyone’s health status. That fits nicely with their default closed mouth approach.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    Will we see five* quarterbacks again? Is that a team record?

    * Gilliam is the fifth quarterback as he took several direct snaps from center. I don’t see how he can not be considered the quarterback on those plays. He was alone behind center.

    It’s not just the game notes that don’t list king as a starter in the first two games, it’s the box scores for those games.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    garbage in garbage out I guess. I don’t see why they would list starters if they can’t do it right. This isn’t the depth chart it is the listing of who started the prior games.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    comment based on list of game by game starters in game notes. I assume correct.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    Jordan Perryman has been sharing one CB position with Devon King, starting the first two games this season. Devon started for the first time against Cal Poly. Perryman started all but one game at corner last year. Jaylin White has started every game this season at the other corner
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    I think it was Devon King, His substitute Budgett left after something wrong with his calf, hopefully a cramp but it happened during a collision
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    In regards to tackling let’s recognize Jaylin White, probably the smallest guy out there for some great tackles, including flipping a running back, and for regaining the starting role he had as a sophomore before his head injury. While we’re at it let’s commend another guy whose main contributions in years past was as a kick returner, now also having a starting role Isaiah Thomas.

    Amazing that we’ve opened two games with horrible field position. That’s got to be a rare occurrence with the kickoff rules the way they are.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    I knew that. You and I agree we should beat them and think they will.

    My comment was focused on the Weber game, where the score was embarrassing for them but they showed some strength in the first half.

    I also think Southern Utah isn’t that bad, again because I watched the first half of the NAU game, and was surprised they ended up losing. And then Southern Utah blew Poly out in the first half, essentially ending that game.

    Bottom line is I think it will look like a contest this week, with us winning.
  • Week 4: Idaho state at UC Davis
    Idaho State hung with Weber for most the first half. They moved the ball against Weber. Weber broke open the game by exploiting a freshman defensive back. I only watched the first half of that game so my impression is based on them giving Weber a challenge early.
    So I wouldn’t discount ISU totally. Sagarin’s ratings have them more than a couple of touchdown underdog. But they aren’t like Cal Poly.
  • Week 3: Cal Poly @ #21 UC Davis
    We have more healthy experienced depth than ever. I think it is unappreciated how lack of depth contributed to our 2019 disappointments. Guys got health and we added some great freshmen.
    With the number of weapons we have on offense, the opposing defense really has to have their act together. They can’t have anyone who can’t cover and they can’t focus on just stopping the run or the pass. Cal Poly not sound enough to deal with us. I think a team has to be more physical than we are to beat us, and that’s getting harder.
  • Week 3: Cal Poly @ #21 UC Davis
    Poly’s line had some injuries last week.
    This game reminds me of when we scored 50 against Portland State in the seventies. Portland State had a new coach, moving up from high school, Mouse Davis with the run and shoot offense. We blew them out at home, but then they got their program in gear started sending QBs to the pros, and won the next four times we played them if I recall correctly
  • Week 3: Cal Poly @ #21 UC Davis
    A guy drafted ahead of Marino vs a free agent
  • Week 3: Cal Poly @ #21 UC Davis
    Have to factor in Pro careers and not classify someone as D2
  • Week 3: Cal Poly @ #21 UC Davis
    We still have a lot of talent in our subs. Love Hutton, he runs like a running back and catches like a reciever.

    It looks like it’s been 1000 games since someone painted the water tower. Time for the legacy logo on there.
