    Box score has a crowd of 2200. The biggest the women have played in front of ( not counting the end of one of our doubleheaders). Very impressive to win a nail-biter on the road in front of a big, loud crowd

    I’m having dinner in a sports bar type place with the final four going on, baseball and the NBA. And I’m following the women on gametracker! Great win. Great win for a great group
  • Projected record for 2018
    I was just curious how your predictions match up with current reality. you saw them as something like 7-9; reality is 5-12. you had us winning 3 of 4 vs. UNC; turned out the other way. other than that series, you have called it just about right.

    i'm not sure how much you've been able to watch them, but based on current results, how do you feel about your 23 (or so) win prediction?

    i think another thing that played into UConn graciously coming to Davis, was that they were playing AT Stanford 3 nights later. Might as well work out the jet lag on a middle major, before taking on one of your rivals!

    I was listening to the game last night, so have to go on Marsh's commentary about the fouls. But his opinion was the same as BGA -> lots of ticky-tac calls that had ZERO influence on the progress of the offensive player. after the ejection, we picked up 2 or 3 of those in rapid order. even though we pushed the lead to 10+ right after the ejection, i think it came back to have be a positive for the Utes in the long run -> got us deeper into foul trouble, and got their fans into the game.

    Another tough game for shorts. 22-10 in fouls? Wow. That’s a product of style of play. I’m just bummed I can’t follow these guys anymore this year. I was really invested in this group!
  • Ags add two more games at Cal
    i don't think it would matter if we did Uber, a taxi or a limo....the string of cars going down the 'hill' toward beautiful downtown Reno was ridiculous. i thought we just ended up walking it. we'd have to hire a helicopter to make it back faster.

    i think the last year my nephew who lives in Sparks gave us a ride home. he knew some backway around the campus and into the Silver Legacy that avoided all the post-game traffic.

    'brown' was the standard color of the Toomey turf in November!
  • Ags add two more games at Cal
    i remember a pregame at the Eldorado (my wife won two of the raffle prizes, before she did her customary winning at the slots) before the Saturday game. i think the pregame last time (a Thursday) was on-campus -> we didn't make it up for that. took forever to get a bus.
  • Spring Game
    We lost at home to Lehigh in 1977. 10:00 kick off at Toomey in the fog. My dad and I were there that day
  • Spring Game
    apparently Lehigh in coming out here either next year or the following.

    CJ ran some as a receiver Saturday, out of the slot, big target for short to medium passes in open space

    We’re 11.5 point underdogs. Really tough matchup. They have a lot of size and scoring options. Much different than Washington State. Hoping we keep
    It close.

    The men are 11.5 point underdogs. They have a lot of size and scoring options. Much tougher matchup than Washington St
  • Men's Big West Conference Tournament March 8-10
    we played there in 2015 and got beat 81-67. That was the down year after Hawkins led them to first BWC Title

    If it couldn’t be us, I was rooting for Irvine. I like turner and think they get a lot out of their talent. I echo the views on Fullerton. Santa Barbara? I thought bringing back Canty for the BWT and starting him was sketchy. Sounds like they use the exception method to get in some less qualified (questionable) players.

    And if Irvine went, turner might have been a candidate at cal since the interim guy led them to a historically bad season. Turner coached there under Montgomery
  • Spring Game
    Ended the ‘spring’ healthy which is great. Defense looked better, especially the DL. A couple of corners looked very solid. Run game was shaky but I figure that due to lack of contact during these practices.

    I was on the sideline with some alum, and Doss came over to thank us for coming. What a nice kid. Articulate, very genuine. Why I like rooting for these ‘kids’

    According to ESPN Nelson is shooting 100% during the live stats. Often when there is a goof up in the score (like giving them 2 when we actually scored) it will show Gio Nelson jump shot. Never misses.

    Considering we graduated 5 of our top 6 last year, had a contributor (Henn) transfer and played the second half of conference without Chima, it’s amazing we won the conference and were in the fight for the BWT. Not enough weapons for 3 games in 3 days
