Rainbow track might have been a concern for TV viewing (too busy on screen) but it did have more flair than most college track stadiums.

Overall I like what they did, made the best out of not much to work with looks like

Big West got an ESPN+ deal this summer though. Looks to me like it will be the same situation as football where most of the non-televised games will be on the subscription service:

I'm not sure whether it was an upset on paper but I'd add the absolute demolition of Montana at Wa-Griz to the list

UC Davis is 2-5 against FBS in the Dan Hawkins era and a whopping 2-1 against non-PAC schools if I'm counting right.

Stunning start to the season

Now I've seen it all

HUGE

I'm 10 seconds or so behind

Playcalling is questionable and fouls are unfortunate but in terms of talent this is a legitimately good offense at any level of play.

We've barely seen some of the best skill guys like Tompkins and Crawford either

I guess it was already determined the goal was to kick a FG with 0 left. It worked, but doesn't feel good

" They're committing fewer stupid fouls than UCD and getting it to the units that seem to be doing well against the Aggie D. Neither their playcalling and execution are great, but they're what Tulsa needs

Frustrating that the things that Tulsa is most noticeably better at (to my untrained eye) are playcalling and execution -- the things we can actually control and (at least here) have been complaints for years

Insert yearly rant how it's inexcusable that Davis isn't the best-disciplined team on the field in every game

I think it'll end up like the other games we've had against middling FBS teams where they'll realize some of their units can beat ours but others won't -- like I remember how SDSU had to abandon the run and just try to get it to their best WRs and how SJSU was running the ball at the end well wen it was too little too late.

Tulsa has talent but I'm thinking they're not good enough that they can stomp a good FCS team at every aspect of the game.

I've made peace with our return team taking bonkers unnecessary risks. It wouldn't be UCD football without it at this point

Sack! Defense stepped up big when it mattered

Spring may have helped more than we even though. We looked like the higher-level team on that drive

There was a bonkers weekend where two of the 32 starting punters in the NFL were Davis guys who played when I was there (both Wadman and Schmidt).

Man we did a lot of punting before Hawkins

For what it's worth, Zaga has played in the title game twice since that, and in the 2020 season that didn't have a tourney there were likely going to be three mid-majors on the 1 or 2-lines (Dayton and SDSU were contenders)

Still obviously very rare, but it's not an absolute hopeless cause like if an FCS team entered the CFP

One of the best TV viewing experiences I've had for basketball in a while. Quality and pace of play, college-length halves, few commercials, few stoppages, etc.

I'm not sure free throws themselves were the differential but I think if France had just been hitting a few more then it could have been a different ballgame in terms of momentum and what was on the table for France to run the last few possessions.

something like that. Bundled with Disney+ and Hulu it's $14 which is a pretty good deal for that amount of content.

I personally like ESPN+ to catch a lot of FCS and mid-major games, but yeah for just Aggie ball it's a net sideways move for more money, most likely
