UM would be a bad matchup for the T-buffs. Especially with Akem back, the passing attack would be brutal. A confident griz team clicking on offense and playing lights out on defense beats the bizon in Fargo imo.

Well if my aunt had balls I’d also call her my uncle.

UM does not have the offense or defensive line remotely capable of handling NDSU right now.

That is not a dish on UM...it is reality. They would not stand a chance in that game. It’s a talent issue. Besides that, Bobby Hauck doesn’t know how to win big games.

USD was such trash that they beat SDSU, oh, but for the injuries.
BSC wins at home don't count. Got it.

Montana has never lost to SDSU; 8-0
Montana has never lost to UNI; 7-0

Yes USD was trash. SDSU is a good football team who is missing an all American caliber QB, the best running back in the FCS and their second best running back. They, for the vast majority of the season, were clearly the third best team in the FCS.

They are clearly not the same team post injuries as the one who took #9 FBS Minnesota to the wire and #1 FCS NDSU to the wire.

Yeah. And we had a hobbled QB, lost our #1 WR, our best two TE’s are out or injured....no worries though. We don’t make excuses. Because that’s what injuries are...every time you bring them up you lose what little credibility you had....

Why do you always say We and Our. You don’t play on the team.

UM is a flawed team that were beat soundly, twice, and defense was the reason.

Yup. 2 bad games. Both opponents played their best game of season. Offense was at least as much of problem against Cats. With the way Griz played against Weber, Griz would have beaten any FCS opponent.

I thinks it’s funny that you make up so much stuff. 2008 JMU team. You have no clue. Defense lost 2 games for Griz. You have no clue. Griz are flawed. What were Griz flaws against Weber? Heck, against Oregon?

First, the 2008 JMU team was not undefeated when Montana played them. Second, they did not have a good defense and had given up significant points in the preceding weeks leading up to Montana beating them. They had won their first playoff game 38-35 against Wofford and second game 31-27 against Villanova.

It was a good win undoubtably, but don’t pretend like the 2008 JMU team were world beaters. They had one score games against App State, Villanova and Richmond in the regular season.

In 2008, you had 5-6 teams who were all pretty much equal. App State, JMU, Villanova, Richmond, Montana, UNI...those teams were all very good. Arguably more parity in those playoffs than any other FCS playoffs before or since.

Not a single fan outside of the Montana fan base was surprised by that win nor look on it as some monumental slaying of the dragon type of event.

The 2008 Montana Grizzlies were a better football team than the 2008 JMU Dukes.

You don't have a clue. JMU had been ranked no. 1 since early October. They had knocked off teams ranked 3, 1, 5, 7, 12 and 6 including App St. Richmond and Villanova.

You just keep making up stuff. Were you still in high school then?

There was a ton of parity in 2008. The separation from 1 to 7 was negligible at best. The CAA had 4 teams who were all very good. UNI was good. Montana was good.

Nobody looks back on that game and thinks Montana beat an all time great team.

Like I said, they had barely escaped the previous two weeks. They should have lost to Wofford in Round 1. They might have been ranked #1, but they were certainly not blowing teams away like the 2019 JMU team has done.

 

[PlayerRep]

The point remains that the Big Sky teams are seeded 3, 4, 5, and 6, and the MV teams are seed 1 and 7.

That was much of the support for the OP in this thread.

Yes, we understand that only MV teams have serious injuries. Yes, we understand you were one of the foremost experts on college football when you were still in high school.

I see you're making up the JMU should have lost to Wofford stuff too. JMU was up 28-14 at halftime. It got closer in 2d half, but JMU was never behind. JMU led 38-28 until Wofford scored a TD with a minute to go. JMU led in total offense. And then you make up that Wofford should hav won the game. Your stuff is very weak.

 

[PlayerRep]

2019 JMU beat Stony Brook in OT, no. 5 Villanova 38-24, and no. 16 Towson 27-10. That's your idea of blowing everyone out?

 

[kemajic]

They might have been ranked #1, but they were certainly not blowing teams away like the 2019 JMU team has done.

Like needing OT to beat 4-7 Stoney Brook? I don't recall the '08 JMU team having that kind of problem.

At the end of the day, no matter where you think the Bison sit or JMU, Both programs have respect (maybe not the Bison), But I think any Big Sky Program could beat either on a good day, and guess what all it takes is a good day. So no matter how outmatched you think any BSC team is, all it takes is a shit day for your Bisons season to end!

Any time you go into someone else's house, where they're ranked #1, and beat them in a winner-take-all scenario, it's monumental. Montana was NOT expected to win that game.

Your logic is so flawed its comical. You use "one-score games" against the other top teams in the country as proof that they weren't "world beaters". Yet you can excuse away SDSU's defeat against USD and NDSU's struggles with UCD and SDSU and SIU like they never happened.

Honestly, it's ok to admit your team is the best team in the country while at the same time BSC is the best conference in the country. Those two things do not have to be mutually exclusive.

You can’t claim to be the premier conference and not have a single team who is going to legitimately compete for the nation championship.

If any Big Sky team plays JMU or NDSU right now, it is a 20 point win.

Yeah, you can. MVFC is the Bizon and a bunch of pretenders. CAA is JMU and a bunch of pretenders.

Bizo2011 says the WCC was better top to bottom than the Pac-12 in CBB last year.

It's incredible the amount of twisting this dude is doing. :lol:

The top 4 Big Sky teams would have finished no worse than 2nd or 3rd in the MVFC, and definitely 2nd (or maybe better) in the CAA.

2011 seems to be unable to accept that the big sky has 4 seeds ahead of the no. 2 MV. I can assist that the MV has the top seed and the best team at this point of the season.

What will he make up next? He appears to have no substance. He throws out crap, and then must think no one will call him on it or do 90 seconds of research to point out his bogus points.

If he works in Missoula, I hope he puts more effort in his job than he puts into backing up the BS he spews on egriz.

Nice that FCS has its playoffs. Games will be played and we'll know teams that advance through the various rounds. Then we'll have some sense on the relative strengths of the conferences within the FCS. The BSC has 4 seeds in the top 6. Who cares? I'll care more if the likely over seeded #6 seed gets a home win the quarterfinals and moves into the final 8.

2011's team has won 33 in a row. He has a little license to spew whatever he wants on EGriz.

I don’t think UM is over-seeded. Played well in all but 1.5 games. Beat the mo 3 seed a week ago. 2011 is making a minor fool of himself. Fine with me.

He's exposed by his unforced errors. Not unlike what happened to the Griz in Bozeman Saturday.
