When: 6 p.m. today.
Where: Torero Stadium, San Diego.
TV/radio: No TV; KHTK (1140 AM).
Last meeting: UC Davis won 49-46 last season.
Aggies on offense: UC Davis has been productive this season, and history points to a continuation of that trend. In two prior meetings against San Diego, the Aggies have averaged 43 points and 600 yards of total offense. Senior wide receiver Brandon Rice had five catches for a career-best 145 yards and three touchdowns last week in last week's loss to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Quarterback Greg Denham has thrown for 300-plus yards in four consecutive games.
Aggies on defense: UC Davis has taken its shots the past two weeks against Sacramento State and Cal Poly. The Toreros (8-2) have won two consecutive games and rank 11th in Football Championship Subdivision scoring with 36 points a game. San Diego wide receiver John Matthews leads the FCS with nearly nine receptions and 131.7 receiving yards a game. He's tied for second in scoring with two TDs per game. San Diego quarterback Seb Trujillo leads a balanced offense that likely will try to run the ball against a UC Davis defense that last week allowed Cal Poly to rush for 427 yards and average 7.8 yards per carry.
Fast fact: UC Davis' past two opponents have won the time of possession, dropping the Aggies nationally from first to sixth.
Closing comment: "You've got to pick your poison defensively." – Aggies coach Bob Biggs

Here are some rules of the road:
• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "report abuse" button to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.
• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.
• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.
• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand. If you want to discuss an issue with a specific user, click on his profile name and send him a direct message.
• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.
• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.
• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.
• Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.
You should also know that The Sacramento Bee does not screen comments before they are posted.
