That was an overall pretty sad exhibition of basketball but a win is a win. Thank goodness for Conner Sevilla, although he only made one field goal, his free throw shots held off a bad loss to the surging Titans.

De Luna, #24 is hitting only 4 of 25 (16%) of his free throws this season. If it comes down to it, he'd be the one to foul.

This game is hardly marked by proficiency by either team. The Titans are less proficient, though. The two teams have combined to make just 4 of 20 treys only 1 of 7 from Fullerton. Both team are under 70% from the line. They've combined for 25 turnovers. The winning features for UC Davis are great defense, a big rebounding edge and hitting 467% from the inside the arc. My one fear for the second half is that Fullerton's offense will explode the way Cal Poly's did last week. A team that scores almost 90 points a game is not going to be held to 24 points for another full half.

Rocak making up for lost minutes down in SLO. He already has 7 of the Ags 9 points. Aggie's D has been solid so far.

Yes, thanks I just realized that I was getting confused between the Fullerton game and the Irvine game. I mean, they're both in Orange County, right?

Curse the NFL scheduling. I just found out that the 49ers play at the same time as the Aggies this Saturday. Unfortunately, the 49ers game is a bigger deal, so I'll have to watch a replay later or on Sunday.

I hate having been right about Cal Poly and Mousa getting their offense going. Credit to them going 26 of 28 from the charity stripe.

Sevilla fouled on a 3-point attempt. Big mistake.

Seems like the Ags are missing a lot of shots in the paint. Cooper, for one, is forcing his shots. At least the Ags still have a 9 point lead about half way through the second period.

Cal Poly has played horribly so far. Statistically, UCD is beating them in every category except steals and turnovers. With their offense, look out for the Mustangs to explode in the second half. Look for Mousa to go off, although he had a reasonabe 10 points in the first half. I don't think Rocak is going to get into the game. I saw him on the bench and his sweatshirt was still on. Maybe he's a little dinged up.

Aggie's defense has been great. Cal Poly has only hit 1 of 8 from beyond the arc.

Odd that Suljanovic went in and not Rocak.

Seemed pretty standard, no?

That makes sense.

Rocak not starting. Hope he's okay.

Plus, there are a lot of folks whom I used to see here who no longer post, but I hope they are at least watching.

Ags are a 2.5 point favorite in this one and the over/under is 165.5. If Northridge can get 95 against Cal Poly, the century mark is in sight for UC Davis which is no presumption of a victory.

Checking back, I did notice that there were a lot more posts for Aggie men's basketball back in the 2017-19 era. Had mostly to do with winning. If you win it, they will come.

It's kind of disappointing to me that the men's basketball team has only had a fraction of the interest on this talk group that the football team does. Or for that matter, as much as they got in past years. I can certainly appreciate the strong interest in Aggie football, as well as the team has done for decades, but it's not a zero sum game.Not sure what has happened to the basketball fans. Are they out there and just not posting or has their record of late kept the fans away?

Always to get a road game win, but especially in the Thunder Dome. Good team play by the Ags. They had 6 players in double figures and all 8 players who got in the game had at least one rebound. Most importantly, the team defense was really solid after the first five minutes or so. Seems like Coach les has settled into an 8 man rotation of guys who can play that kind of D?
