Heartbreak. Ags lose by 2 as the final designed play comes up short

Aggies up 61-59 at the final media timeout!!

Tied at 51 with 7:51 to go. This could be a nailbiter.

Ags back to within 1 at the 12 minute timeout. Good efforts from Shorts, Goode, and co.

Jackson makes his return. Aggies up 16-8.

"UC Davis has 72 points; they need 75 for everyone in the Pavilion to get Pizza. So everything's on the line here. . ."

Credit to the commentator for trying to keep the hype up in a blowout

52-27 well into the 3rd. Ags look borderline unstoppable

Bertsch just reached her 24th consecutive game with 10 or more points, a program record

I didn't hear a word about it or plans for such two years ago when I was doing documentation of the school's food offerings for a campus job. But a lot can change in two years.

On the subject of 2-sport athletes, I just noticed that Garren O'Keefe is one of the walk on commits. He's also a 20ppg SF for Colfax's good basketball team; I wonder if he's going to try to do both in college? Seems he'd fit into Les's system as a 2/3 if his defense is good.

Same here.

Agree that we'll let this stuff come out through official channels.

As for GoAgs20172, he (or she) has been posting edgy smack talk for months, just never had anybody to direct it at until Gauchofreg popped up. Had a very different idea of what they wanted this forum to be than the majority of commentors.

Well, in order to lose our home win streak it took an inhuman shooting performance by the best opponent in the conference while our best player was suspended and we still almost brought it back.

Hurts but I can live with it.

Not sure how to win when your opponents literally morph into the Golden State Warriors...

Dang that's a tweet I never expected to read about an Aggie...

My guess based on the evidence that a) it was something that could happen at a hotel b) it seems like the University doesn't exactly know the procedure at the moment and c) that law enforcement does not seem to be involved is that it was weed.

But that's pure conjecture and maybe we'll never hear the full story.

Those UCSB games will be huge. I'm not feeling up to doing a complete scenario analysis but if we sweep we're in a pretty strong place to win the conference (even with a random other loss somewhere) provided nobody else down the table wins out.

Man, replacing virtually the whole roster around Chima and still right in contention for the Big West. This program has come a long way.

SB and Hawaii are in OT. Might be a key game to determine tiebreakers down the stretch.

Good game Aggies!

Decent, not great but not bad for a mid-major. The UC Davis page is more active than most colleges and Aggie sports got a lot of posts this past year thanks to MBB, WBB, and Football.

Then during the tourney run UC Davis became a meme on the college basketball page:

Hawaii has the best quality streams if I recall correctly -- I'm glad this is the away game that I finally have time to catch!

Re: the infamous Hawaii game, my understanding from a reddit conversation about it recently think was that a player got T'd for mouthing off to the ref and the crowd got T'd for throwing a little giveaway ball onto the court -- both fouls happened between two Tyler Les free throws which resulted in him making six FTs in a row, which is a little tidbit that's bound to come in handy on a trivia night sometime.

Ags still lost that game actually but the 6 pts caught them up to make the score relatively close.

The "Not Included in Anybody Else's Roster" team ---

Darius Graham -- G
Avery Johnson -- G
Lawrence White -- G
Josh Fox -- F
Josh Ritchart -- G/F

Tyler Les -- Bench

That could be so huge down the road. Today went as well as we could have reasonably hoped.

Sac Republic games are relatively expensive (they charge MLS prices) and sell out pretty much all the time. I could see a niche for a team with much cheaper tickets that markets to families, group packages for youth teams, etc. 11k is not reasonable but maybe 2k-3k is.
