  • Week 8: UC Davis @ Cal Poly
    neither of these are the current "official" one, which was recreated a few years ago after the original was lost or damaged or something.

    Here's the one that started appearing a few years ago

    Good we're already in 4th-quarter mode, we should start it before 4th quarter every game

    nm apparently the refs didn't really know either

    stream died on my, what was the flag?

    Beautiful set of downs at tempo with the same TD play that got us on the board last week

    Lol it's almost like Hawkins responded to them. Commentators cast doubt on the #10 ranking; Hawk immediately pulls out a trick play and then skewers them with Tompkins

    Commentators are not complimentary about UCD's defense but they're actually doing pretty well, just not being given any breaks

    TD GILLIAM!

    Good drive, took advantage of a favorable field situation, got the ball to the best runners and good things happened

    Oof Castles ran into the concrete looks like, that could be really severe

    I've been following the San Diego State season this year as well which has remarkably a similar trajectory to UCD's. Good defense and punting keeping them in games, a LOT of inconsistency on offense and questions at QB.

    The difference with SDSU, though, is that once they have some jitters they settle in with some good high-reward, low-risk downhill running that generally keeps drives alive and avoid procedural errors and turnovers. I just don't see that recognition or composure to find what works and stick with it from the Aggies this year

    There was some success earlier where Hastings was just getting the ball off to the usual suspects quickly and it was the only non-Trent thing that really worked against Poly

    And here's Magic

    To my untrained eye when HR or Magic are in at QB the offense behaves a bit like a triple option, but is much more traditional when Hastings is in even when they're technically running the same looks. Easier to defend his passes when it's more obvious when he's going to pass and has less time

    Easier to block when you get a head start, I'll give Special Teams a pass for this one
  • Week 8: UC Davis @ Cal Poly
    Offense looks ok when we're not making procedural mistakes and just getting plays off fast

    The days of being at a speed and size disadvantage at every position seem to be gone so we really need to see more of just decent ball movement and sustained drives. Not asking for the world, just consistency

    Offense just looks unprepared

    Repeat of my usual complaint that if we're going to stick with our academic recruiting limitations then the expectation should be that UCD is always the most prepared and well-executing team on the field, when frequently it's the other way around

    Defense = on point
    Special teams = clicking
    Uniforms = crisp

    Weber up by 14 after the two-point conversion

    This actually doesn't affect Ags' conference hopes as much as one would expect, but it would be good for our resume at this point if Weber shows improvement
