“The sideline was flat. No energy, no will. That’s unacceptable,” a former player wrote in a message to Skyline Sports.
Even Murray noticed something was amiss with the Griz.
“Today we just had that bond,” said the Bobcats quarterback. “I honestly think Montana doesn’t have that type of bond and I think that’s been the difference the past two years.”
Where are Green, Schillinger, Selle, etc.? All ex-Griz? Guys who allegedly understand the importance of this game? Guys who should be able to get their guys "up" without a HC who acts like a cheerleader?
I sit in the 2nd row on the 50 yard line behind the visitors bench and without appearing to be talking smack this was not a griz team I've seen over the years. no fire. they were just all kind of there. seemed to care more about being in front of the heater than being involved in the game. it was 35 degrees out!
as a cat fan I had a ball seeing this. but if this is what you all have been seeing all season, it's smack you in the face obvious that this team lacks what all of those great teams had over the years. those teams would talk trash all week, talk trash all game, chippiness after plays, basically everything you hate as an opposing team and opposing fan. and more times than not they'd win. this weekend you had a lackluster group. this isn't to say that guys didn't play hard. but as a whole it was a pretty subdued team. :twocents:
