"Promised donations" are okay, but Sac State's "pledges" are sus... got it. LOL

This is from the SAC SID, so of course it is.

From Sac State Media Team:

THE CASE FOR SAC STATE

The field for the 24-team NCAA FCS Playoffs will be announced on Sunday, Nov. 23, on ESPNU at 9 a.m PT. With the addition of the Ivy League for the first time, there will be 11 automatic qualifiers and 13 at-large selections.

A victory by Sacramento State would give the team eight NCAA Div. I wins which has been the benchmark for earning an at-large selection. The team would also be guaranteed to finish in sole possession of third place in the Big Sky with a 6-2 conference record.

Since 2018, the Big Sky has placed at least four teams in the FCS Playoffs each year and has had five in three of the past four seasons. The league has had at least three teams in the playoffs every season since 2012 except 2017 (two).

The Hornets are currently 19th in the Massey Ratings which is the computer poll used by the committee. The team is also 15th in the Massey Power index and offensive rating and 26th in strength of schedule. That number will improve after this week as UC Davis is ninth overall in the Massey.

Sacramento State will also be one of the hottest team's in the FCS at the end of the season. With a win this weekend, the team will have won its last four games, six of its last seven and eight of its final 10 games of the year.

The Hornets have an offensive efficiency rating of +7.52 points per game against FCS opponents. The rating is calculated by figuring the difference in points scored by Sacramento State compared to the average in that team's other games. The team has a defensive rating of +2.6 points per game.

Okay, I laughed hard.

You realize only some of the MAC games are moved to mid-week, only in November, and are on ESPN and ESPN2. Not ESPN+ or ESPNU, or the Ocho or Pluto TV.

But let's keep the agreement with Stetson, for football...

This is cell phone footage from the Idaho sideline. For anyone who watched the game and the replays available - there was 100% no way to overturn the call.

He's been pretty quiet!

First spread I saw was Aggies -6.5.

This will all come down to whether or not SAC's talent/athleticism can result in more made buckets than they give up with their terrible, terrible defense. I'll be tuned in!

SAC is going to have to take their medicine and prove themselves in either in the C-USA or the MAC if they want to go to the PAC or MWC.

My money is on a C-USA invite in November.

It would be....

Game 12: (RV) Sac State (7-4, 5-2 BSC) @ UC Davis (7-3, 5-2 BSC)

Gentleman, posted this on SacBuzz.com - I think we are on our way to a win and you're in Causeway Classic...

Idaho got their QB back last week and were dangerous enough to put a slight scare into UC Davis. Now they come to Sacramento Saturday night for Senior night in another do or die game for the Hornets. Can we get a home performance that mirrors some of our excellent road performances as of late? Wood (QB), Graves (WR), and Cummings (RB) are a scary trio. Would almost like it to pour rain, but it should be in the 60s and clear around kickoff.

Out of optimism and pure desire for an all time Causeway I'll say...



(RV) SAC 48

(NR) Idaho 38



FINAL





Leading us too a win and you're in Causeway Classic...



Game 12: (RV) Sac State (7-4, 5-2 BSC) @ UC Davis (6-4, 4-3 BSC)

There's a good chance SAC will be 7-4 (5-2 BSC) when we play the Causeway @ Davis this year. Which I'm sure you guys would love to see. Real opportunity to rip our hearts out.

Lamar game will be moved, but stay on the schedule as I heard it. So SAC opponents for '26 so far are:

@Fresno
vs. Youngstown
vs. Lamar
vs. Unannounced FCS ($260k payout per Herder)

This is true. But he runs a 4.3, so he plays.

Our QB can't throw, and that's gonna bite us....
