Starting to look like a trap game. Aggies seem kind of confused tonight at both ends. Being out shot, out-rebounded, out-assisted and out-hustled.

Zero= the amount of attention I've paid to the FBS playoffs.

Do students have to pay for regular season games, too? How long has this been going on? When I was there, students got into all games for free with their ASUCD card. I can't remember going to a football or basketball game that wasn't sold out during the term. Those were the good old days.

Games of Nov. 24:

CSU Bakersfield (away, 4-3) 68, Northeastern 60
CSUN (away, 4-1) 89, Utah Tech 79
UC Riverside (home, 4-3) 80, Alcorn State 52

I noticed that they put all of the top seeded Big Sky teams in the same side of the bracket. Guess they don't want the championship game to be an all Big Sky contest? No such reluctance to make it an all Missouri Valley game, though.

I keep forgetting to remark about the "return" of C. J. Hutton in this game. I think it was the first time he had a real impact on a game this season. He'll be a very welcome factor in the playoffs.

How important was that last second TD against Portland State? I'm so excited to see my alma mater in a playoff game. It's the first time I will have a had a chance to see the Ags in post-season.

Looking at some of Sac's past games, it looks like Conklin was the whole offense: vs. Cal Poly he accounted for 88.8% of the yardage; today vs the Ags, 87.1%; vs. Portland State, 68.8%; vs. Weber State, 66.9% and vs. EWU, 66.6%. Maybe this is Coach Thompson's game plan, but I suspect it's largely because the kid is just very good. The way he could throw on the move and make pinpoint passes was impressive. Hard to blame our secondary, plus, I think we only sacked him once.

Hard to believe that Sac State lost to Cal Poly and Portland State.

Games of Nov. 22:

Florida International 76, CSU Bakersfield (away, 2-3) 73
Fresno State 72, Long Beach State (home, 1-5) 69
UC San Diego (home, 5-2) 80, Toledo 45
St. Mary's 80, Cal Poly (away, 3-4) 66

Lan Larison: 273 all purpose yards and a recovered onside kick. Are we sure he's not from Krypton?

The fat lady has sung. Not the greatest performance but it sure has been exciting.

That's the kind of call, shucks, this is the kind of game that separates the optimists from the pessimists.

Nothing conclusive.

D time.

D!!!

Oh ye of little faith! Momentum is shifting. The D needs to feed off it and hold the Hornets now. Lots of time left.

Hornets are a lot better than their record. I get the sense that Conklin has made big strides this season. He's going to be a problem for us for a few more years.

Cal has scored twice to go ahead of Stanford 24-21 with 2:40 left in the game.

In addition to Scott Marsh and whomever he's teamed with there were one or two others. Just saying this pair is calling it fairly and objectively.
