Plough's Sactown Sports 1140 interviews with Carmichael Dave/Jason Ross are so good for the program. He's really good on that show....always a good, natural interview.

"13 season ending injuries, 5 of them all-americans"

I swear I saw Richardson in on special teams vs. NAU. But maybe it was Zach Jones (also #3)

Montana seems to do this a lot....then Hauck goes around bitching to the committee to improve their seed.

Montana's consistent success over the years has earned this benefit, though....

I heard he lost both arms...dining hall accident

I think Montana being ranked higher is merely as simple as Montana State having 2 loses (really good loses).

I think MSU and Tarleton should be swapped in both polls.
Montana always overrated now matter how good they are.

Damn....based on the SOS, Montana State is that good.

Like last year, the offense looks like it is hitting its stride and turning it on at the halfway point.

The defense, with all the key injuries, is the question going forward. Kickoff return game has become an issue as well (hopefully a short-term thing).

So far in Big Sky play the Aggies defense is holding teams to 21 ppg (vs. bottom tier offenses though).

The remaining 5 opponents can score some points (UNC scored 49 at Idaho).
(Conference only stats):
Idaho State 26 ppg (a little surprising)
Idaho 31.5 ppg
UNC 33.5 ppg
Montana State 46.3 ppg
Sac State 39.5 ppg (starting to figure things out)

I think the question is can the Ags keep these last 5 teams under 35 points and give the offense enough opportunities to score in the 40's.

Davis is scoring 37.7 ppg thus far.

Unreal to overturn that one. The guy caught the ball. Even if he didn't, there was no evidence (on the angles shown on TV) to overturn the call on the field.

Plough says he can win a national championship but he has to have the resources to do it — BlueGoldAg

100% believe this.

If program support from alumni and fans doesn’t continue to increase, that could be a nail in the coffin. — agalum

No matter how much you love something, if you don't feel supported its hard to stay committed.
(that was deep :roll: )

The school / alums need to do their part if they really want something great

If Plough gets offered big money at a bigger school and turns it down to stay here, he will be leading by example and doing the very thing he hopes his best players will do when they are offered huge sums of money to go elsewhere. — BlueGoldAg

This is a good point. Its a good opportunity to show his guys (and future guys) they are fully supported.

Ultimately this is Gary’s call and he needs to make a decision as to whether he wants to build a legacy or turn this place into a commuter campus. — LeFan

What do you mean by this? Gary May needs to give Plough a raise, among other things?
In what scenario would Davis become a commuter campus? (genuinely curious)

......ugh.....Lets say this is good publicity for the program, and Plough is ignoring any phone calls :sweat:
Vigen is a waaaaaaay better fit :wink:
Jerry Neuheisel also.....Plough bad, very bad.

You are probably right about Pinnick regarding offers. Though, he seems to be an all-in Aggie at the moment.
Getting to play baseball as well is likely unique to Davis and sweetens the pot here. I can't see that happening in the FBS at any high-level program. Hopefully we can find some dough to make it easier to keep him.

Yep. Lamson 222 yards per game. He is running more though- Lamson has more rushes and almost as many yards as Carter Vargas. (32 for 124 yards)

*edit* Lamson isn't running much more. Pinnick has 29 carries. A little different since Pinnick is mostly scrambling, vs. Lamson rushing as part of their offense?

Caden Pinnick in Big Sky play (3 games):

62-82 75%
10 TD 0 INT 949 yards
213 Efficiency

Regardless of the strength of the opposing defenses so far, the most impressive stat to me is the 0 interceptions for a rs. frosh. He's been sacked 8 times - only Pennington has been sacked more times (9).

Pinnick and Lamson (Jr.) are the class of the conference. Lamson has completed 71% of his passes w/ 214 efficiency.

I did not realize Lamson was from right here in El Dorado Hills.

Bad/missed calls both ways. Every game is the same.

If we lived in Davis we would absolutely bike to games. As a student, we used to walk to Toomey. Good times!

I'm going to pretend I didn't see this.
All these guys would follow him to Corvallis, can't blame them......ugh...

I believe the head coach when he says he's committed to staying in Davis for a long time.
