Is there a scenario involving a 5 way tie? Long Beach wins out. Fullerton loses only to the Beach. UCI loses to UCD, but beats UCSB, who also has lost to Long Beach and the Aggies somehow lose to Hawaii or UCR. I think I go that right and it would make all teams 11-5. Highly unlikely but it might make Sports Center if it does. I'd prefer the same scenario without the Ags losing another game and finishing in first. That seems less improbable.

BlueGold Ag, I was able to watch the video on BigWestTV. I totally agree with your reply to eastbayaggie. UC Davis played excellent man-to-man defense. This was especially impressive coming off a triple OT game on Thursday. Plus they clearly have adjusted to being without Moneke. At the same time, the Aggie offense was aggressive and found some nice lanes inside, although the Gaucho defense was kind of lagging most times, committing hard fouls a few times when they let an Aggie get by them. Ironic that UCD ended UCSB's 12 game home win streak after UCSB ended UCD's 19 game streak. Nothing like sibling rivalry.

Thanks eastbay, I see ESPN has changed the box score.

I get 50 lashes. I totally missed the time the game was on, but if the fact that my video stream will not replay is any indication, it probably froze out here again. (Only thing in Hawaii that freezes outside of a refrigerator. ) But a HUGE win for the Aggies! Based on the box score it was a real team effort but with Shorts standing tall again. (Box score suggests he didn't start. Is that correct?)

If we assume that Moneke did not break a team rule (which would have been a coach's decision to suspend him) but a violation of the student conduct code, I do not think this will be over soon. Having been a college administrator for some time, I can add that they will not say anything about Chima's situation to protect his privacy. I am no longer familiar with the student code at UC Davis, but I would think it specifies not only the different steps that must be taken but the time requirements for each. It is unlikely that they will accelerate the process for a student athlete but will treat him as they would any other student going through a disciplinary hearing.

The main thing is that the Ags won in multiple OT again. Grit. I sure hope Chima comes back soon. The Hawaii commentator noted that UC Davis is "just an average team" without him. He had a point but UCD won two tough games. Meanwhile since beating the Ags in Hawaii, the Warriors had lost 5 straight before edging UCI tonight in Irvine.

#@!^& BigWestTV. Wish I'd been able to see it. Ags finally making 3s.

My stream is frozen out here in Hawaii too, UCD up 27-18 at halftime according to ESPN.

ESPN gives the Aggies a 73.2% chance of beating Cal Poly.

Two odd statistics from the game. Fullerton got 7 blocks on Aggie shots. That seems about right. On the other hand, UC Davis only made 7 turnovers to the Titans 19. That difference was not enough to off-set the discrepancy in shooting percentage.

Allman and Ahmad went for 52, same as the game in Fullerton, but we would have won this if Moneke was playing. Tough loss.

Aggies not shooting well. At the half, 0 for 8 from 3. 12/31 overall. Fullerton shot 5 for 9 from 3.

The fact that the team did not fold when down so far is a very good sign for not only the rest of this season but for next year.

UCSB was 0 for 2 since I posted that. On BigWestTV, the commentator said they need to make half time adjustments, but you don't wait until half time. Les seems to have stopped trying to force the ball inside to Russell who is no Moneke in there. They've also gone to a man to man to defend the perimeter but the Gauchos have been abel to get some easy shots inside due to some good play by their offense. Ags can still pull this out if they continue to play tight defense to create turnovers, but they also need to be more efficient on offense. They're not doing badly hitting 6 for 11 from 3 but 7 for 19 from closer to the hoop.

Gauchos very hot from beyond the arc. 8/11 at this point. Even with Moneke their 19 game home winning streak would be in trouble.

Goaags, this is really funny. You should write for comedy shows.

This story is from the Davis Enterprise: https://www.davisenterprise.com/sports/reason-for-moneke-suspension-remains-a-mystery/ . It states that the University has not disclosed what Chima did, but the article does note that Coach Les made the decision to suspend him. It was not the result of any University action. Finally, the story states that the University's Judicial Affairs Office in handling the situation and that they are trying to talk to people in Southern California. I presume that means the staff of Warner Center Marriott where the team was staying.

Assuming that the Aggies can make the tournament (huge assumption, I know), anything would be better than a 16 seed, especially as a play-in team.

UC Davis' RPI rating is now 83. Time to start wondering what their seed might be if they make it into the NCAA tournament?

The video shows Monson at the very end then cuts to a different one of Shorts final drive and shot. I am grateful for the highlight video but the Long Beach interview was not there. I'll find it on YouTube, but wanted you to know.
