2012 Big Sky Predictions?

[Cats2506]

O.K. now I understand. My second link did state that Braden Hanson graduated from North Carolina in December. If he's already graduated, the NCAA does seem to take into consideration academics every once in a while; at least that's what they say. Interesting. 2007 Gatorade Player of the Year for North Carolina, if not mistaken.

I know its difficult for you to keep up, but keep trying :shock:

1. Montana
2. EWU
3. Portland State
4. Montana State
5. Southern Utah
6. Cal Poly
7. Sac St
8. Weber St
9. NAU
10. North Dakota
11. UC Davis
12. Northern Colorado
13. Idaho State

I think as someone wrote earlier...there are 3 tiers. The top 6 could go in any order...based on ease of schedule etc. Next 4 also any order...and then the last 3. Could be interesting.

I just don't understand why everybody is high on Southern Utah. I know they have Sorensen but come on we beat them last year!

They beat UNLV................................. :lol:

The only safe prediction is that once again only two programs will draw an average of 10,000 per game.

UM, MSU for sure. UC Davis and Cal Poly possibly.

I could see UND there as well but I think it may be another year before fans realize we are playing for something actually.

Thanks for the words of encouragement; I'd take it for what it's worth. :thumb:

Records would have to be broken for the latter. 2011 data:

Montana 24,878
Montana St. 17,071
SacSt 9553
UC Davis 9192
EWU 8899
CPSLO 8770
Weber 8487
Idaho St. 7512
S. Utah 6628
N. AZ 6277
PSU 5947
N. CO 3905

N. Dakota not listed in either FCS or DII

Ridiculous statement.

I think that the excitement of joining the Big Sky will push both UC Davis and Cal Poly's #'s up.

Cal Poly average attendance #'s for a few other years:

2007 - 9,644
2008 - 9,574
2009 - 9,588

I think with NDSU winning it all...UND faithful would rally to support their team as well. I think UND will be middle of the pack...maybe pull off a nice upset...and set the foundation for the future. Would be good for the conference to have as many good teams as we can.

 

[Screamin_Eagle174]

In no particular order...

BSC Title Contenders: EWU, Cal Poly, UM, MSU
Darkhorses: SUU, PSU, Weber, NAU
Mediocre Middle: UND, UCD, ISU, SAC
Last Place: Da Bears. :lol:

FWIW concerning EWU:
-UW transfer DT Andru Pulu (6'1, 300) will be eligible to play this year.
-AA LB Zach Johnson was granted a medical RS and will be back.
-OL will be experienced... 10 different players started in 2011 due to injury.
-WRs are DEEP; Nick Edwards (6'3), Greg Herd (6'3), and Brandon Kaufman (6'5) all have had a 1000+ season in the last two years...
-QB Kyle Padron (6'3, 230)(who took BLM's at SMU and is now transferring) is on campus today and tomorrow. If he signs, watch out. :thumb:

yikes! yes, if you get padron look out is right. i didn't realize all your wr's were back and your line is that solid. don't you have a couple good rb's too. talley?

Watch out.

Honestly the top 4 are the Griz, scats, EWUUUU, and Poly (schedule helps them here otherwise there would only be top3). I think the scats think they're better than they are (as per the performance in bozo last year) so that makes 3. Poly is good...but they lose to people they shouldn't and aren't as deep as other teams so that makes 2. Looks like a 2 team battle for conference champ...with the Griz on top!
