  • Week 3: Lehigh @ UC Davis
    Last year there were often problems with the Pluto TV feed and I found the Big Sky TV feed to be more reliable.

    Click on the blue "Sport" button, select "Football" and today's games should be there.

    Don't let the video entice anyone into considering moving up here. Too many people are coming here already.

    I'm looking forward to the Aggies coming here in a few years though!

    In the video it appears that he was coming from the general direction of Bill Gates' mansion.
  • Bring back the Cow Bells for the Playoffs?
    Sorry for going a little off track here. Banning the steam engine because of complaints from other schools reminded me of an effort to ban the Aggie Band. Back in the early 70s, the SF State basketball coach tried to get the conference to ban the Aggie band because of the hex that we did during free throws. He claimed that his players believed the hex; causing them to miss baskets.
  • Week 12: CAUSEWAY
    I see that the current AQI at San Luis Obispo is 49 and forecast to be good air quality Saturday. Could the game be played early at Cal Poly prior to their 4:00 PM game? Would Sac even care enough about this year's game to be willing to put out the enormous logistics effort required on such short notice to pull that off?
  • Big West Conference Message Board Links
    Several of these links need to be updated from their "yuku" addresses to their new "tapatalk" addresses. I found the "Big West Boards" at https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/bigwest/index.php
  • Post-game thread: UC Davis beats Idaho st 56-17
    ESPN also showed the score as 59-14, but then corrected it.
  • Week 8: UC Davis @ Northern Arizona

  • Week 8: UC Davis @ Northern Arizona
    I don't think it's available through cable. I get it with my Chrome web browser and Big Sky TV at http://www.bigskyconf.com/sports/2015/11/19/WatchBigSky.aspx
  • Week 3: UC Davis @ Portland State
    When I was in the band in the 70's, it was a student run organization funded entirely by ASUCD. When available, we took university buses to games, driven by university staff. If they were not available, we chartered buses from Solano, or occasionally Greyhound. We didn't have to come up with any money ourselves, but rather were given $1 per person per meal (which was enough for a complete meal at McDonald's back then). If the associated students could come up with that money, why can't the major university that Davis has become find the money? I guess the requirement to stay in hotels explains part of it. We always slept on gym floors. Also we had few games outside California.
  • Week 2: University of San Diego @ UC Davis
    Here's an old article from the Tacoma newspaper where Chris Petersen explains why UW uses hand claps and how he got started using it at Boise State. Primarily it's because the sound cuts through the noise better in crowded stadiums. He points out other advantages too.

  • Week 2: University of San Diego @ UC Davis
    first refresh didn't help, but a second refresh got it going again.
  • Week 2: University of San Diego @ UC Davis
    Lost it here too. Says "CONTENT UNAVAILABLE The requested bitrate is not currently available."
  • Week 2: University of San Diego @ UC Davis
    If they do get the stream started, will it be from the start of the game?
  • Week 1: UC Davis @ San Diego State
    I have been intent on never joining Facebook, but for the Aggies I guess I have to now too.
  • MBB: Aggies (6-7) @ Seattle (7-6)
    I'm excited about this game. I bought my ticket today. I live near Seattle, but my job has prevented me from attending the games in Seattle in the past. I just retired, so now I'll be able to start attending the games up here. This will be my first time to see Aggies basketball live since the 70s.

    Hopefully Garrison will be back playing like he did early in the season and the Aggies come away with a win! Go Ags!

    As a member of the Aggie Band, I attended every game, home and away, except the few that had time conflicts with football games early in the season. It's unfortunate that the conference doesn't allow visitor bands. I learned more about life, teamwork, and having a positive, can do attitude on those frequent band trips; skills that prepared me more for the real world, than did all the classes I took at Davis.
