Merry Christmas Rico. I think you were/are a football coach? You've watched the Cats more than twice this season & likely all the Griz games. Did you expect the Griz to win either game based on what you saw during the regular season? Did the playoff wins both teams had impact what you thought would happen? I watched both teams all year but I don't have coaching experience, so wondering what you saw.
The only reason I wanted to watch the game again was to decide if the injuries to Davis and Schafer were intentional or not. If they were intentional, I was going to flush the cats down the crapper and root for Illinois State. Conclusion was that Davis was not intentional and Schafer was borderline felony assault by a safety who probably has not had a lot of game time. Otherwise, we took a pretty solid ass whoopin. Guess I'll be rooting for the Cats at the Natty.

I told a Cat friend I thought the game was 65/35 in favor of Cats going into last weekend. The Griz looked really good at times this year even though inconsistent and I think they were a much better team than a year ago. The Cats are very good but I think this Griz team was also very good so I expected them to compete which they did in the first game and up until a 3rd and 20 in second game. One thing I agree with Schmidt is the Griz had fewer ways to win the game. But the Cats are better no doubt. I think the Griz need to get better up front on both sides for sure to catch up but I honestly don't think blowing up the coaching staff of a 13-2 teams is the answer. Portal can change things in a hurry. And I don't think Cats are anywhere this good without Lamson, He is pretty exceptional.

He was 19-30 for 176 yards and 1 TD against Cal Poly. 10-18 for 144 yards and 1 TD against Cal Davis. Looks like he can't play against the Cal teams. Maybe we should change our name for the Cats games to Cal Montana
And had 11 carries for 97 yds and 2 TDs vs Davis and 12 carries for 50 yds and a TD vs Poly. Rushed for nearly 700 yds and had a completion percentage of over 72%. Come on

His 90% completion percentage and 105 rushing yards against the Griz in the Brawl certainly helped his season stats.
Oh for fucks sake haha.

Spot on, thanks for the unbiased view.
Defensively they have to make significant coaching changes ~ The last three years the Griz defense has been mediocre at best and that is being kind! Bobby boy better wake up and smell the coffee and get significantly bigger, physical, and athletic on both sides of the O & D lines ~ Those fellas are not easy to find, however, it needs to be there priority!! Vigen got it when they got beat by South Dakota St I believe it was 2022 Vigen stated in order for there team to take it to the next step a “Chip” they need to get bigger, athletic, and physical upfront and he / they did!! Let’s face it the last three games of defeat to the cats was because they owned the offense and defense lines!!! Hence, a great chance to win the “Chip”
Getting bigger upfront on D is hardly going to matter if we stick to the 3-3-5. Unless we find another generational NT like Gubner.
It seems to me that if it takes a unicorn to make your defense successful, then it’s probably not that great of a system.
There’s obviously a reason only a handful of teams in the entire NCAA run it.
It would've been fun to see them at a neutral site. From my brother In law, a cat fan, who was at the game. He was highly impressed with the business like attitude and effort of the griz, and said the targeting call and ejection of Harper was a huge turning point in the game. He said the sideline was going crazy, big swagger after the hit, then there was deflation. His perspective was that was a big turning point.
Wow Homer… So cool that you were able to spend your time watching the re-run of a now insignificant blowout loss…instead of helping your wife take the Christmas lights down from your two story house with snow on the roof..
Ah shucks Boo Boo, you're such a gentleman.
