Anytime I hear "funding secured" my first reaction is to roll my eyes.....
I asked this a little while back, but what happens if there is no FBS conference invite? Is there actually $35 million in the bank? No FBS, no Stadium/Arena? My hunch is it all goes away if Sac remains in the FCS.

And, of course, we've never beaten them :D (0-11 since 2005....ouch. This is a D1 stat, I'm not sure if we played them as D2 https://ucdavisaggies.com/sports/football/opponent-history)

Being 2-25 vs. Montana, Montana State and Eastern Washington since going D1 is rough.
But times are a changin!

If the Aggie defense contains Chacere, then this game is over. Point blank. — CA Forever

Agree. Spy the QB, dominate on D. Looking for some nice offensive numbers- Lan needs to (and deserves to) start racking it up.

I also agree with DrMike that Coombs is going to have this one dialed in.

Additionally, margin of victory absolutely matters to the playoff committee. The next 4 games need to be CONVINCING (vs. PSU, CP, EWU & UNC). I'm talking 21+ point wins against the weakest conference teams.

UCD 41 - PSU 17
Viks score 2 rushing TDs and kick a late FG.

I liked Plough’s comments on APP regarding Hawkins trying to build a program, and build a division 1 thought process.
Hawkins came in at a time he was desperately needed and we were fortunate to have him for the time we did.
I think Plough is carrying that torch well.

I'm starting think these Conferences don't take UC Davis athletics seriously.....:roll:

*w/ a hint of sarcasm*

Not all love regarding the Sac stadium news…
Sac State Students for Quality Education has almost 6,000 followers.

Exactly.

I haven't read all the stuff on X....but are we talking $35 million cold, hard cash-in-the-bank, or pledge/planned $?

If the conference invite doesn't come, does the money still come for the stadium?

If there was something definitive, I'm sure we'd have heard all about it by now.

college kids get high and go to the football game (staring at tiktok) all over the country.....they just do it less in CA.

Sac has a group of people doing something.

It appears Davis does not have a group of people doing something.

lol no idea what you are talking about...that sounds delightful though ;)

To me it seemed like at least 10,000 in attendance vs. Idaho.

@ 11:30 Aggie legend Jon Grant #12 with the quick shoutout. Love to hear it.

Dead-silent student section on the opening Idaho drive is hard to watch. I mean, those boys were operating in silence.

I can't see a 6,000 difference either.....maybe 4,000. Way fewer students in the grass and student sections. When I walked around several times, the view from the east side showed a lot of empty pockets on the west side.

Overall, the attendance drop is real (and frustrating)....see my previous whining about Californians and football.

Folks have been crazy about college football in other parts of the country for a looong time. Folks are not crazy about college football in California (especially in the Bay Area/Sac Area).

Its true. It seems contrary to HC talking about staying aggressive and playing the win the game.

"Idaho should gave won this game guys" :D


I'd say the main reason why Davis won was they outscored the Vandals 28-12 over the last 45 minutes of the game. :D

Sluka punching air right now....

that boy was SCOOTIN’ tonight :D
