Case in point James Franklin - his Penn State buyout is something like $47 Million.

Well deserved - Adam Jones has to be thinking "What the hell do I gotta do up here?"

Gundy's got to be taking a nice long break at this point - I think it'd be a decent hire for Oregon State though, but does Gundy want to roll back into work so quickly? Still, candidates won't consider the Oregon State job unless a) it was the first big HC offer they got and that's the goal of the candidate or b) the Beavs finally realign into a full, proper conference with decent prospects.

Right now, the 2026 Pac 8 is what, Oregon State, Wazzu, Boise, Colorado State, Fresno, San Diego State, Texas State and Utah State. I mean, that's not drawing top dollar vs. the Big 4.

My first two years in Davis, I lived so close to Toomey, we walked over for the game from our house. There was a walking group and we'd sort of build to it block after block like the Buckaroo Banzai trailer. Good times indeed! That was a loud North End Zone - seeing tube sock madness come back was great, at one point it got sophisticated so that socks could make it to the top rows of the seating when the "Aggie S.W.A.T." Team would come out with a compressed air gun and fire them up to the top rows so everybody got some action - I think those cannons were discontinued for obvious reasons as they shot those socks out pretty fast. Still a fun time when tube socks were in the game, not sure if the S.W.A.T. guys were ROTC, but they were fun to watch - ROTC guys and Band-Uh! used to always do push ups together, and in those J.T. O'Sullivan days there were 100's of push ups a game.

As in PI, as in Holding Calls - NAU was holding Davis on at least a half dozen key plays on Saturday.

After suffering a lengthy delay in Ogden, Sac and Weber finally started playing late into the night - Sac rolled, and they've been scoring a ton of points lately save for the Cal Poly upset where their QB was a turnover machine (credit to Poly). Are they firing on all cylinders now?...or is this another peak wave, before the next crash out?

One thing you notice with SDSU and NDSU is how sound they are defensively - how consistent and physical they are, main reason they continue to win the FCS Natty.

Mercer's Progression = Princeton's Destruction

Safe to say, Marion, Ford and Wulff are overpaid, Plough is underpaid. Ford's got a pretty sweet deal, because that money goes far in Latah County Idaho.

Northern Colorado @ Idaho

Staying in Davis.

This is a game from earlier in the year, but this Tarleton State team is the real deal, they can score like nobody's business. Upset win @ Army after destroying the Vikings in Hillsboro, they've been basically scoring 50+ every game since.

#3 Tarleton State
@ Portland State, W 42-0
@ Army, W 30-27 (2OT)
vs. Mississippi Valley State, W 59-3
@ Central Arkansas, W 56-10
vs. Chattanooga, W 52-24
vs. Southern Utah, W 52-42
@ Utah Tech, W 41-23

It'll be up later today BlueGold!

Poly @ Griz '25

Tarleton pulls away in St. George and beat the Trailblazers.

#1 Bison whoop #8 Salukis at home -- they look complete and ready for another Title run.

One bad year and the slide starts.

Plus, who wants to spend their college years in Cheney?

Plus, who wants to play on that God awful red turf?

If that program isn't turning you into a pro in 5 years, it's not worth it. The degree is an afterthought. As Hawk once said, if you draw warm breath you can qualify to enroll at EWU.

Sac rolled Weber in Ogden
