#16 UM @ #3 NDSU Game Thread 1:30 PM

[GrizLA]

Even the UM commercial is poorly done. They show the journalism school...a dying profession...sad day for UM...I have to say when it comes to special teams, Hauck had them ready.

 

[UMcheer2000]

Ty needs to be fired along with Haslam. Stitt can be the OC. An intelligent person who commands a team can be Head Coach. Engstrom can join Hillary's campaign.
O'Day please come back and bring Breske with you!!!!!!

Why Ty? What are you smoking?!

Other than the D's propensity for giving up big plays at the start of some games, that doesn't mean that Ty is throwing all those interceptions or making those head scratching offensive calls when we have all the WR's that we do...

 

[hm.grwn.grizfan]

This board is ridiculous when things don't go our way. Signing off for the night. Go GRIZ!

 

[JohnnyExtacy]

If NDSU is not that good, this Montana team consists of a bunch of clowns. They are getting absolutely clowned.

 

[NDGrizz]

Sorry Mick for you to call your last football game! Wished for at least a close one for you to call but a blowout for the bad guys. Yuck!

 

[jodcon]

because that would have corrected all the errant throws....

Please refer to our conversation 2-3 weeks ago. I discussed the statistical tendency to overthrows, miscommunications, fumbles and interceptions. You insisted that statistics didn't matter, that Brady was better than his statistics and that his strength was in his ability to "read" receivers and progressions.

I am writing this having watched the fourth interception.

Chalich and Simis wouldn't have fared much better if any, when you don't have to respect the run defense gets a lot easier.

 

[AZGrizFan]

Not surprised at all that NDSU will win...just thought the offense would put up a little more fight....

But to be fair this offense has been hot and cold for a few games now, cold early against these guys doesn't cut it.

Yep, needed to get up early and make that qb throw...

Hate to call out players, but this is on Brady and his receivers (but mostly Brady). That first half basically put this game out of reach ... barring a miracle. Completing less than 50% of your passes, with 2 interceptions put the Griz in too deep a hole.

And you can't put it on the D ... they've been out there for over two full quarters of TOP, while the O has kept it for about one quarter. And when you get that far behind, you pretty much have to throw it, so you have no running game.

BUT STILL: If you had told me -- after Brady and Chalich went down and the Griz had a 4-4 record -- that UM would be playing a second-round game in the playoffs, I'd have said you'd had to much red ball (or whatever). So, painful as this is, let's not go out and cut our throats.

21 points scored without the defense on the field. NEVER gonna win a game like that.

 

[berlingriz]

NDSU is not that good. Our qb gave away this game. I'm looking forward to next year. FTB

Not good?

Just curb stomping your team.....

Congrats on your reading compression. Brady won the game for you. Your team will lose next week. Bank it.

He is still a better option right now than anyone else on the roster.....

NDSU is good, no denying that. But the Griz also came out and s**t down their leg. This is the on-the-road team that showed up (well, did not show up) at Liberty ... and NDSU is way better than Liberty.

 

[Fahque]

Jones has to catch that

Yep, Griz didn't come to play today...no one is arguing that point...

Exactly - you are a quality team that could definitely go all the way... again.

We will catch up, but it will take time.

And by catch up, I'm not talking this game.

This isnt the same NDSU team from the previous 4 titles.

For starters this new coach has inherited reputation, recruits, and leftovers. And they just arent as good. 2 pick 6s, and a KO return TD .. its 16-6 and who knows how this 4th quarter ends.

This NDSU team isnt that good




Throw the god damn ball to Jones and get him his 19yards please

NDSU most certainly IS that good. But watching Jacksonville, they will be matched...wish I could watch McNeese.

You can speculate. It may or may not be true. I wasn't speculating. And we saw it today.

 

[JohnnyExtacy]

There haven't been anyone that can touch them in almost 5 years.

last 4 years they've been the best in fcs....they're not that good this year. If the Griz D plays like this, and the offense shows up, I'd take the Griz in 6 outta 10. Today was not that day, Beeson are better today, but the way the qb played, that's not saying much...

They have been better than the griz in all facets of the game. On top of that Bison would probably beat the griz 9 out of 10 times in this type of envirnoment.

Another pick 6. I can't believe Montana fans were actually hyping this QB up.

Well, maybe I'm a fool with my money, but if Gus is on, I'd take the Griz in 6 outta 10. Would've lost my ass today, cause that dude couldn't hit the ocean right now....

I don't think UofM is this bad but I don't think they are on NDSU's level. They beat NDSU in the first game of the year, without NDSU's best CB and Safety, with NDSU coaching having no tape of what Stitt was going to do, and not until after NDSU's starting QB hurt his ankle and couldn;t run, and they only one by one possession.

The NDSU team isn't as good as the last 4 years, but they are certainly capable, and just as good as any team in FCS. They have just as good of a chance to win as any team in FCS.

 

[RobGriz]

Just got your ass kicked

Thank you, captain obvious. What an ass....

It's typical of the inbred, er, I mean breed.

 

[Addicted2Mediocracy]

Thats why Haslam needs to be fired. Stitt should have been brought in as an OC not the Head Coach of a top FCS program.

 

[BadlandsGrizFan]

Number one is team discipline. A direct reflection on the head coach. Major penalties and on this punt, you see a push from behind, thank goodness it doesn't get called, but a very dumb play. Yep, this team has some great talent and the only thing holding it back was Stitt. Hey, another sideline pattern... Great play call... How about a fly sweep now too.

Dude you're an idiot, crawl back into your hole. Anyone who thinks this team is worse off with Stitt at the helm is a fucking idiot. Wait till this dude gets the players he wants. Kids gravitate towards Stitt he will have his pick of the mill on the recruiting trail and he will get the exact kids he needs to run his show. Don't be surprised if we're in the chipper within the next 2 years. And at that time I will happily tell you and the other Stitt haters to politely fuck off
