    thought it was TT, but might be wrong.
  • Week 3: UC Davis @ Stanford
    Checked the stats on Stanford's previous two games -- USCs offense was a little more productive yards wise than ours but in the ballpark, and we performed a little better than SDSU. The Aggie TD was the first time Stanford allowed one since the first quarter against SDSU.

    I don't know how good or bad U$C is this season yet, but SDSU has a pretty one dimensional offense and has been prone to getting stopped cold once in a while, even last year with Penny.

    Neither of Stanford's opponents have yet to prove their offenses are better than a top FCS offense, which probably we are

    If it's posted today then I bet that's what they're wearing. Would have preferred the classic look against Standford but the Cardinal uniform does have a lot of white, so I kinda understand going for a sharper contrast.

    Also I love how -- minus the coaches show shenanigans -- the program seems to have way more resources these days. We have way more money and prestige on the institutional level than most of the FCS so it's good to act the part for recruiting

    The two font wordmark is clean and professional looking and I'm totally fine with it appearing related to UC Davis Health Systems and such. It just doesn't really fit for things like apparel and Athletics branding.

    Also, these days its of extreme importance that text and branding look legible on a very small screen. So far the only branding the University has that meets that criteria is the new Athletics font, the CA, the mustang head silhouette alt logo, and ironically the two font wordmark.

    I actually kinda like the mustang horseshoe logo idea but it's just too busy for the times and could really use a simplification, which would help for its recognizability on Athletics uniforms as well. Mozilla Firefox actually is a good reference for that; they realized their logo was too complex so they flattened out the colors and made the features more pronounced so it looks familar but better on mobile

    Cal Davis, UC Davis, Cal Aggies, I can't find myself having a strong preference. If we become a top 25 fcs program and hoops go dancing every other year then people can call is whatever they want.

    Though really, what's wrong with just Davis? The script on the helmets looks fantastic

    If we take Stanford's land we'll control a good chunk of the West coast and have a substantial tax base: https://www.sbnation.com/2018/9/10/17838508/college-football-imperialism-map-week-2
  • Week 2: Big Sky
    SDSU QB is out as well, possibly for multiple weeks. Sounds like it was a very rough game.

    Still can't get a good idea of where we stand in the Big Sky. Looks like EWU, NAU, and Montana at the top?
  • Week 2: San Diego @ UC Davis
    New uniform, new offense, new staff, new video board, new everything

    same Aggies from my undergrad days
  • Week 2: San Diego @ UC Davis
    I wonder if they're including unclaimed student ticket allotment in the 8k
  • Week 2: Big Sky
    Sac had a 1-pt lead until SDSU staged a 4th-quarter comeback. 28-14 SDSU with a few minutes to play
  • Week 2: San Diego @ UC Davis
    I'll take a 20-0 halftime lead but this game isn't nearly as exciting as I was hoping...
  • Week 2: San Diego @ UC Davis
    shoot stream is behind
  • Week 2: San Diego @ UC Davis
    7-0 at the end of the 1st, Defense and Punt team playing very well

    We're the #26 team (first "receiving votes") in the STATS FCS poll; a win over SD should put the Ags firmly in the top 25. Somewhat questionable rankings of some 0-1 teams above us.
  • San Diego State at #13 Stanford
    He didn't look like a Heisman contender for sure. Makes his numbers from last year curious.
  • Week 1: UC Davis @ San Jose State
    Yikes, according to the DE, this is the first Aggie game 1 victory since Azusa in 2012, the very first UCD game I saw. That's a long streak of starting 0-1

    SDSU had the Aztec (5th) DB watching Love almost the whole time, leaving the other DBs out to dry against Stanford's faster receivers.

    However penalties, sloppy QB play, and lack of passing game killed SDSU. Stanford is going get their points -- probably more than 31 -- but I think the Ags can keep the score respectable based on what we saw here.

    The "we'll throw it to Doss 20 times" comment is looking more devious by the minute
  • Week 1: UC Davis @ San Jose State
    Bold prediction: we'll get past midfield vs Stanford this season
