    Is anyone else depressed by the fact that this is already week 6? Season is 1/2 over.

      GO COWBOYS!!!

      Speaking of the Aggies, check out this article from today:



      Thiessen ran the numbers regarding the three Aggies losses and here's what he found:

      Against Auburn: Utah State had a 92 percent chance of victory in Auburn just before the Tigers recovered their onside kick.

      Against Colorado State: the Aggies had a 98 percent chance of winning before fumbling away a punt in the final minutes. Even after taking the muffed punt into account, Utah State was still an 88 percent favorite to prevail.

      Against BYU: When Riley Nelson and the Cougars took over from their own 4-yard line, the numbers gave the Aggies a 90 percent chance of leaving Provo victorious.
      Add all those improbable outcomes together and the odds of Utah State losing all three of those games are about 1 in more than 6,000 chances.
      Ouch...

        The helmet is the same color as a chocolate tootsie pop.

          The regular season will be halfway over right around 2pm (Mountain) during week 7.

          Regardless, yes, the season has gone by way too fast. It always does.

              Other than some big runs by James, Cal has held them down

                The accuracy of Cal's qb is somewhat familiar.

                  He makes Heaps look accurate.

                        Impressive this year for Cal. I have only noticed them faking an injury once this year.

                              I sincerely thank Larry Scott for saving us from playing this Duck team this year.
