i love that thing. I mean how intellectually obtuse can you get. It’s meant all in good fun and speaks of the historic ag tradition. I remember when the scrubbed the CA off the water tower because the penny loader types (I think who wanted UCD to have an SC image or something) were embarrassed by what the CA stood for. I love it that Hawkins has brought that back and I saw a lot of CA hats at the Stanford game.

The second verse of Big C (as quoted by someone else on a Davis history website).

Our rendition of Big C included:

On our mighty water tower
Stands our symbol, clear and bold.
CA means to fight and strive and win for Blue and Gold.

Good old Ollie’s ever watching
Day by day he prowls
And when he hears the buzz of the Sacramento fuzz
From his lair he fiercely growls

Grrrrrah, Grrrrrrah! Hey, Hey!
Grrrrrah, Grrrrrrah! Hey, Hey!
Grrrr, Rrrr, Rrrrrah!


The first verse ... We are Sons of California,
Fighting for the Gold and Blue.
Palms of glory we will win
for Alma Mater true.
... Etc.

Ollie was our mascot at the time.

Amen. We would have loved to have this conversation a couple of years ago. To me the big mistakes were center qb exchanges the kickoff fumble at the 2 and the punt thing (I think Pluto crapped out on me then - I don’t remember seeing it). So big mess ups on special teams and simple stuff. Those gave UNC momentum. Yes the secondary looked like they were sleep walking but multiple fumbling of snaps and the special teams stuff is really inexcusable.

that’s for sure. Sac looks awful after their first 2 drives.

Sac TD coming back. It’s the porosity bowl. First team to stop the other wins.

Poly without a single pass is redundant.

Porous is an understatement. Poly will have to score every possession to stay in game.

Sac State scores easily on first possession. This game could be a route.

NSU wins so both Montana and Weber lose.

Well ISU scores again.

And how is Weber ranked so high??? Oh well, just win and the rest will take care of itself. WSU 18 NAU 16 in 3rd quarter.

agreed. Idaho is frankly awful. Ags need to be focused next week.

Montana better not be ranked above Ags this week.

PSu kicks 52 yard field goal to go up by 1 with :04 seconds to go.

Montana score and PSU fumbles. Montana up 20-19

Portland State scores - goes back up 19-14 with 2 pt conversion to come.

Correction 28-7

Idaho State destroying Idaho 21-7 2nd quarter with bal

And Montana did not get past midfield in first half. Portland State is faster than Montana and their defense is really confusing Sneed. I don’t think Sneed is used to adversity.

But seriously l hope he does’t sub In so much in the future.

Better get some new cotter pins.
