    Dang, so UNC had 'em, took a great kick to knock 'em off.

    Somebody call Kendrick and Eldering...who cured it way back in the 40's with their groundbreaking vaccine. Hope the Vikings recover - not sure what the timeline is for that. Talk about an Old Timey headline!

    An X clip, or a legitimate highlight package? Personally, I want a legitimate highlight package - available on YouTube, fully licensed and approved by network involved and the Big Sky/UC Davis.
  • Pac-12 set to add Boise, 3 other MW schools
    So, advertising team can't sell out a 10,743 person stadium on an average FCS opponent week, but should Oregon State come to town, magically 20,000 people will fill the seats? I'd love to see Aggie Football raise the stakes, but what's a realistic transition plan? Facilities take money, and time to build, having built a major project on campus -- it's like pulling teeth with those people. Whoever is engaging the students, they need an upgrade. Football isn't a priority with this student base, it's a side hobby if there's time on a Saturday afternoon - and a lot of modern kids would rather stay in their dorm and play on their phone or their IPad.

    By Bob Dunning's predictions, we're 11-0 or 12-0 every season, just saying.

    Really great video, well done by the production staff.

    Would be nice to have basic game/broadcast highlights night of or the day after the game, that really is standard fare for any Division I Football program.

    For what it's worth, some recorded highlights of the SUU @ UTEP game:

    Watching a lot of this, got to say that UTEP looked really, really soft defensively. Give credit to SUU, they got after them...UTEP did have a lot of speed on offense, and they gave SUU a ton of issues downfield.
  • Names on Jerseys
    I honestly don't care either way - if it helps the team win, I'm all for names on jerseys.

    My takeaways from the SUU @ UTEP film were that the Thunderbirds were vulnerable to the vertical passing game - not exactly Hastings' strong suit...and that Lambson is a problem. Has tremendous burst, is tough to see out of the backfield, packs a wallop and is a workhorse. 20 rushes for 183 yards and a long of 46 for a 9.2 yd average...and 2 scores. Sometimes coming off a career performance can be difficult as it's tough to match that effort when the next opponent aims to completely shut you down. Davis better aim to shut him down, because the Cedar City Birds do not chuck it all that often, they can be effective when they do, but the Aggie secondary and LB corps could easily pick off SUU 2 or 3 times next Saturday if things get forced for them.

    SUU also held UTEP to 124 yards rushing - and I imagine they will key on Lan, and force Hastings to beat them if they manage to contain Larison to 3 or 4 yards a carry.

    I will say also that playing @ SUU is not an easy contest. Not sure if Davis is chartering direct to Cedar City or if they're taking the relatively short drive from Vegas...hope the travel is minimal. The Eccles Coliseum is quite the strange little venue - surrounded by a track, and essentially nothing but Toomey bleachers on the visitors side. Things can feel a little bit like a well attended scrimmage.

    QB Jackson Berry is very mobile and can break loose. #21 RB Wissler is also a tough ball carrier to pick up out of the backfield.

    Some intriguing out of conference games this week.

    That Nicholls @ Sac game could be a barn burner.
    Albany @ Idaho, interesting to say the least.
    Eastern @ SE Louisiana, I want to watch.
    Weber @ Lamar, I think that will be close.

    Southern Utah Head Coach DeLane Fitzgerald apparently had took some shots at El Paso before the game:


    Proper Highlights of the match up:

    NFL scouts are watching. Hawk said TB could be playing at Georgia if he wanted to.
  • @ Mercer to Open 2025
    Listing the game as @ Mercer, but sounds like the contest will be at a neutral field.

    I'll get Mercer on the 2025 slate
