    Here’s another “revenge” game for the Aggies they lost to CSU Bakersfield 64-75. In that one, UCD shot only 19% from the 3-point line while the Roadrunners had five players in double figures. Recent Big West play has not been kind to Bakersfield; however, prior to their waxing of Fullerton State on Saturday, they had lost 6 in row. Of primary importance is for the Ags to sweep these next two games to keep their shot at a top four finish alive.

    I thought the officials really let Bakersfield get physical that game which threw off our offense (granted, that doesn't take much). If they don't let them be so handsy and we can get to the line, that will really help. I wasn't impressed with their offense. They didn't shot real well, and didn't run many offensive sets - just alot of one-on-one, and trying to generate offense off turnovers.

    6.5 point favorite tonight in what’s pretty critical game. Probably last game we’ll be favored, although CSUN Saturday might be. I doubt we’ll get much tonight (c’mon Fullerton!).

    As for Saturday's game, CSUN's starting point guard PJ Fuller may or may not be out depending on his injury status.

    I’m wondering if we might see Roberson down the stretch. He seemed to be moving well in the one cameo (vs Hawaii, I think). They might be holding him back for a (another) redshirt, or maybe the knee wasn’t as sound as they hoped. He could be a small jolt here

    Does anyone know why the NCAA rules are so strict about basketball red shirts?
  • DrMike

    How so? I thought it was similar to football and medical redshirts seem to be common.

    I heard Bob Williams and Scott Marsh taking note of the fact that in football, a player can be in up to four games then still redshirt. If a basketball player plays even one game, he or she is no longer eligible for a redshirt. This makes no sense to me, but I haven't been able to find the rationale for it. Four football games is a fourth of a season. Four basketball games isn't even an eighth.

    I was not aware of that. Makes little sense. I’m guessing Roberson could apply for a medical redshirt

    Scott noted that the Aggies can clinch a playoff spot with a win today.

    okay folks, unrelated to anything play wise, but what do we think about the CSUB logo? My friends think im crazy for liking it.

    It ranks right there with Oregon's old Donald Duck logo.

    I can't understand how these guys are only 5-10 in the Big West. They're a lot better than their record. They play good defense. They've out-rebounded UCD 20-10. They shoot well. What's their problem or do they only play well against the Ags?

    It looks like we’ve lost Chappell for the rest of the season. He has a cast on his left wrist and hand.

    It would be too easy to say that the Aggies lost this game at the foul line since CSU Bakersfield outscored us there by 14 points, but the Ags didn't play very good defense, didn't rebound well especially on their own boards, and you can't blame the officials for calling a one-sided game. It's worth noting, too, that TY hit only 3 of 9 from inside the arc. It looks like there is something about the matchups against the Roadrunners that placed UCD at disadvantage.
