Miss the game. Any way to get the replay?

I don’t know about doing this tailgate in the sac parking lot. It is huge and dark. Last time I was there we had some aggressive sac guys confronting us. Bottle’s thrown (not at us but near). All in all very bad juju. Sac campus not a very cool place at night. Very different vibes there. Just be aware of where you are and keep your phone handy! 911!

It will be LL and MP pounding the rock and grinding it out. If MS can stop it all power to them, but in the end I do not think they will consistently be able to do it. Especially in the third and fourth quarter. DLs just don’t have the stamina to do this.

If so pit Fisher in at WR

Use Tompkins. He was an excellent punt return guy when he was given the opportunity. I think they are holding Fisher back for the future.
Certainly the season is not over, but what may not be noticed enough now is that Plough has had to work with a team that is entirely of Hawkins making. Now, he got a lot of talent of course, but the team appears to have bonded very well with him. That is worth noting IMHO. Very impressed with the very young coaching so far.

Having been somewhat critical of our pass defense in the past I have to remind myself that we have won all those games where we did give up lots of yardage by the pass. So why? I think we have a clear strategy of using a (not quite) prevent pass defense on almost every defensive play. Yes, this gives up plenty of yards, but it does eat up time on the clock and prevent (most) quick TDs. Anyway just IMHO for what it’s worth.

Good teams win close games. Bad teams lose close games. Good things: MH getting better. LL getting better and better. TT still has that majic. Bad: pass D looked not so good. PSU was definitely up for this game. We were not. Still probably thinking of the Idaho game. FB a still is a game of 18-20 year olds playing a game. I had two. Very hard! Cudos to those who can actually coach them!

Great
Post I hate those damn water spots.

I don’t mind the new rankings at this point in the season at all! Underdogs always perform better because they are trying to prove their a better team than the critics say. Example: Idaho game. Late season is a different story because it definitely effects the playoffs.

This is the unintended result of the BIG announcement by sac over the new hornet stadium project and the intention for sac to get into the PAC-X. Way too much hoopla. This took the air out of the stadium (sorry for the bad pun) for the poor hornets and they got crushed by an unranked team NAU. Not to say sac still isn’t a very good team, but there are a lot of unanswered questions here about the funding of the stadium and also the strength of the team. I do hope they get the funding for this project because the present hornets stadium is simply unsafe. I haven’t been there in years.

Might be the biggest win in UC Davis athletic history. LSU has a very good soccer team and the Aggies took them down. Congratulations to the lady Aggies soccer team!

It doesn’t hurt that the PAC 12 Commissioner is a former aggie AD and knows us very well. But the real issue will be the multi million dollar buy outs. If there are no work arounds for that the whole deal might be dead before it gets off the ground.

Few are sleeping in Bear town tonight. Even the thought of a loss to us makes their collection skin sweat with anxiety and fear of the unknown repercussions. Turn in sleep. Girl friends sobbing on their shoulders. Coach likely to be terminated. Cheer leaders vanquished to ours. On the other hand we will be sleeping very well. Unless of course Berkeley tries to steal our Chancellor which is actually very possible. Anyway you call it, it’s just really a game for the kids to play. For fun!

Do all FBS teams do this in helmet communication thing? I guess it’s an added advantage if done carefully; but how do they make sure they are talking to the right player? Is micromanaging always a good thing? The next thing will be like the Michigan dude who stole opponents signals only with electronic countermeasures or radio jamming. Good grief! What is happening to good old American football?

Has anyone ever heard of a hidden asset?

I think that with LL now a known factor MH will have a much better year, I.e. play action and yes mostly 5-10-15 yard passes. This equals ball control football which we all happen to love. Just my humble opinion.

And, again, the one unanswered question: why do we not have lights? Has there ever even been a statement from the administration on this issue?

Best pastrami sandwich ever. So sorry to see my old places closing

Sorry I can’t get those podcasts. How.

Still stupid. Let’s counter with ping pong or better pickle ball.
