    Hawaii historically performs badly in away games. I hope that trend continues.

    Tamba shoved a UC Irvine player when both were out-of-bounds.

    It's probably faster asking this message board instead of googling it. Who wins the tiebreaker if UC Irvine and UC Davis tie at the end of the season?
  • MBB: Aggies (3-3) @ Nevada (6-0) 6 pm Wednesday 12/06
    I just finished watching this game.

    I generally don't get too bothered by fouls, but this is probably the first game I can recall of any sports where the technical fouls really bothered me primarily because there was no explanation, and the sports commentators didn't talk about the reason.

    I thought UCD had to play against Nevada and the referees in this game.

    Considering that there is only one top 100 team, #71 UC irvine, in the Massey ratings, and Mid-Major teams that are ranked as high as the mid-twenties have been rejected historically, a second NCAA invitation looks like pipe dream.

    This has been brought up in one of the Big West discussion threads, and it's known here too, but why can't Coach Les consistently recruit decent front men to compete against the top teams in the Big West?

    I'm confused in the meaning of "walk-on" in NCAAB. Connor Sevilla committed to the UC Davis basketball team, but he's a "walk-on" according to the Verbal Commits webpage. I guess this means that "committed" is not necessarily a scholarship player? I did not know one has to announce "committed" for being a "walk-on."
  • 2023 Week 6: Montana (4-1) @ UC Davis (3-2)
    Is the color commentator trying hard to say "UC Davis" instead of "Cal Davis" now?
  • FCS Regular Season Polls
    I remembered that the Montanas always seem to have six home games and five away games, while most other FCS teams have five home games and six away games. I haven't checked their schedule lately, but I presume it still holds true.
  • US News Rankings
    I liked that US News Reports eliminated the "alumni giving" and "class size" criteria, since I always thought those two criteria were ridiculous in my eyes.

    Wow! Look at that! UC Merced is at #60!
  • 2023 Week 1: UC Davis @ Texas A&M Commerce
    Does anyone have a link to Texas A&M University Commerce's message board?
  • 2023 Recruits?
    I saw from my Instagram account that Drew Carter was signed. Does anyone know anything about him? He's coming from University of Colorado Boulder.

    I was thinking that way too, and I think it's sort of a consensus that the mid-majors are sort of the minor leagues. However, all of these upsets in March Madness makes me wonder if the transfer portal may have the opposite effect. I don't think so, but I like to see more future data points to see a trend.

    What are the chances for the Aggies making it in the other tourneys - NIT, CIT, and CBI? I don't think the Ags will be in the NIT. I just don't know the criteria for CIT and CBI.

    So how lousy is your video feed? I had to refresh it once before the game started. I hadn't had a problem since. *knocks on wood*
  • Big West Tournament
    I guess that means if UC Davis wins the Big West tournament, then UCD will not likely play in the play-in game.

    I love Vegas. l don't want to have any Southern California teams having any home team advantage - especially when they schedule playoff games in prime time so that even more of their fans would show up.
  • MBB: CSU Long Beach (17-14, 11-8) at UC Davis (17-13, 10-8) Sat., Mar. 4, 1:00 pm
    One disadvantage of watching games on replay is that you'd know if the game will go to overtime before the start of the game. I saw the video feed was three hours long which generally translates to overtime. When UC Davis was down nine points with less than a minute in the game, but the video feed still had an hour left, I already expected a big UC Davis comeback. That sort of ruined the surprise for me.

    Next time I will put more effort in ignoring the length of the video feed before i start the game.
