BIG SKY FOOTBALL: CSUN PICKED TO FINISH NEXT TO LAST.Byline: Chris Branam Staff Writer Before the vote they said all the right things about Cal State Northridge. But when the Big Sky Conference football coaches' poll was released Tuesday afternoon, it was obvious what the coaches said and what they really felt were two different things. The Matadors were picked to finish eighth in the nine-team conference, one day after several coaches said they thought CSUN CSUN California State University Northridge would have been a team picked among the top three or four. ``You can't go by what's on What's On (Traditional Chinese: 熒幕八爪娛) is a weekly half-hour TV series that airs on Fairchild Television.

He described Ponciano's firing as ``devastating dev·as·tate tr.v. dev·as·tat·ed, dev·as·tat·ing, dev·as·tates 1. To lay waste; destroy. 2.

The new rules: Doug Toole, the Big Sky's first-year coordinator of football officials, went over rule changes for the upcoming season Monday - and two seem to have CSUN in mind. Toole said a team will be charged a full timeout if a player doesn't have his jersey tucked in or is wearing a visible bandana on the field. That doesn't mean a player can't wear a bandana, but if he takes his helmet off on the field with it showing, the team would be charged. CSUN senior defensive back Chazz Moore often wore his uniform top out last season. Many Matadors wore bandanas. |
