Reasonable article in this mornings San Diego tribune.

Just now got back in my hotel room after a huge scare from the scrappy Torreros. Ags looked brilliant at times, and sloppy at other times. Why we ran 3 running plays in a row in the red zone and got stuffed each time is beyond me. Too many “cute” plays which resulted in us coughing the ball up. USD is well coached and I think they got some of their plays watching Jr from Cal. Their Martinez was a hard running back. Back to the drawing board.

Now its time for a Lyft ride and a big margarita somewhere.

It’s hot down on the field but both teams have to play in it. Seems like a game of momentum. Ags need to come out strong and take control. Jake seems off to me, but they are putting a lot of pressure on him

BTW, I heard last night that the game is sold out. Im sure glad I bought my tickets in Davis before heading south. Who would have guessed a sell out? Maybe they have a small stadium.

Good morning from San Diego. It’s a beautiful day in S. California. And it’s game day!

These guys like to play the scholarship no scholarship card. I don't recall that we focused on that during the DII days.
Go Ags!

And let’s not forget SD wins the Patriot League every year and is a regular in the playoffs. I think Dr. Mike nailed it, “No turnovers, get ahead early and pull away.” We dont want them to get momentum at home. Look for them to take a lot of deep shots. Our secondary needs to step up and essentially do what Cal did to us.
Packing bags now. Go Ags!

Secondary will be tested on Saturday. — AggieFinn

So will theirs :).

Maybe the bossy cow cow sent Galindo over the edge :). Without the Band-uh to carry on tradition, we will need a thorough cheering guide, here’s a start:

Just saw that. It’s Harrel or Ornelas. When i first read your post i was worried that Jared was hurt. I really like his athleticism and have heard that he is a very humble, respectful individual. Aggie Pride.

When it gets closer watch the boards and post here looking for tickets. Last year i almost always had an extra ticket. And some guy was walking around the tailgate looking for a free ticket, “for a kid,” and later was scalping the tickets by the ticket office. My point is that there always seems to be extra tickets floating around. And game day parking is around $10. No need to buy a pass.

Anybody find an active Torrero forum? I've looked and the only one I found was essentially MIA.

Thanks, yes I am sure there’s plenty that we will never be privy to. Feel like I lost a good friend.

Ok, where’s the criminal complaint? Known rapist? My guess is the truth is somewhere in the middle. And the Bee will sensationalize anything related to UC Davis.

What a crock of bull manure. And I am sure they will not allow the lyric "Sac State Sucks" in the new, re-organized, castrated band. Finn, I'm thinking a big banner needs to go up at the tailgate, "bring back the band-uh."

Just watched the SLO - USD game. The Torreros, as is often the case, have a real gun slinger in their QB (6’4”). They don't grind it out, but run a few plays and take deep shots. They have a 6’5” TE. All their receivers look good, and have a knack for getting open in the middle of the field. Poly really burned them on the long ball. Their dbs seemed to be several steps behind the poly receivers. SD does have a dynamite kick returner and it showed against poly.

I hope our DBs can essentially cover SDs receivers like Cal did to us. It will be nice to not have to deal with C Brown jr.

BTW, poly looks legit this year.

Wife and I will be flying commercial down to SD for the game, arriving Friday. Did someone say Mexican food and Margaritas?

Saw our game live. Curious what SD has.

Ok, thanks blue and slo.

Glad to see you back Sochorfield, miss you buddy!

That’s exactly what it looked like from the endzone seating. Finn speculated it was a lot hotter on the field then it appeared.

The SLO SD game was on pluto tv. Does anyone know where i can find a replay of the game?
