Bobbyball vs Bunnyball

I was banned right after the game for attacking a poster who attacked Pease. I shouldn’t have jumped on that dude, but I was tired of people who attack the student athletes, coaches, etc. UM had a great season.

You should never be band for anything, let alone that. The mods have lost it, or at least some of them. They don’t moderate what they should, and then they do something stupid like that to you. Little men thinking they are important by being a mod. They goof up the board by not moderating what they should and then hammering you.

I texted with Bobby tonight. Says everyone is feeling good. On the recruiting road. More to come.

I called the dude a ‘moron’ after he said Pease was an incompetent coach and his play-calling cost UM the NC. I still believe his post was objectively moronic and raise the truth as an affirmative defense.

I just looked at your posts. Good and supportive of the team . Your posts were mild. That guy is a maroon at times. I see that some good posters gave your post likes. He called you a moron too. Did he get band? There are thousands of worse posts than yours every month or two. A mod goofed up, in my view. Banning you hurt the board. Pease had nothing to do with the loss. The O and QB didn’t execute well enough and missed opportunities. And SDSU was a very good team. Keep supporting the team. We need more supportive people like you. Bobby and the team are fired up.
 
It’s fair to say I was surprised by the ban, which is the only time it has happened to me, but I was mostly just amused. I was in San Francisco preparing for oral argument on January 9, so it gave me an excuse to stay off eGriz and focus on work. My client won, per an opinion filed yesterday, so maybe I should thank that mod.

Great news that everyone is fired up for next year. So am I. It would be great if Pease sticks around for a while.

Congrats on the win, Goat.

He didn’t play to not lose, but he did play to not get beat by a worse score at the end. The last two punts were dead giveaways of that. I think a lot of fans are okay with that.

I didn't meet many who were. We were scratching our heads in the stands and at the post-game tailgate about those calls...

Here's the one that I thought was really out of character, as I've always thought Bobby was one of the better clock managers in terms of timeout usage. There's 1:27 left in the first half after a second down run is stopped for 1 yard, and SDSU is faced with a 3rd and 17 from their 24 yard line. Bobby chose not to take a timeout. After a 13 yard rush on third down (our D was playing soft), the timeout is called with 45 seconds left. After the punt is dead at the 9 yard line, we only have 35 seconds to work with. SDSU goes into prevent, and we at least got a decent Hail Mary attempt.

The reasoning had to be that Bobby didn't want to risk SDSU converting the 3rd and 17 and then scoring to close the half. It makes a bit of sense since the Griz were receiving the second half kickoff. But I counter that with the thought that you need to squeeze as many possessions as you can if you want to pull the upset. Just a bit of playing scared there in my opinion.

Yeah, that's one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't decisions. I've seen that TO backfire enough times I'd be reticent to call one there also, although it's probably the right decision.

So what's the point if you lose 23-3 0r let's say 37-3, does it really matter?

Anybody who watched the game knew the outcome was never in doubt after sdsu kicked their field goal to go up three scores in the 3rd qt. considering how anemic the Montana offense was that day.

I'll defer to you on this question. As a bub, you're farrrrr more experienced in losing than anyone on this board.

Are you busy livining YOUR tag line again? .interesting.. :shock:

I think he pretty much got you with facts. If you're a Bubbie in the modern era, you are way more accustomed to losing than any Griz fan. The reality is this: The Bubs couldn't win a home playoff game and had to replace two coordinators with criminal charges pending, BUT they let them coach an entire season out on bail with no punishment until the season ended. Contract extensions and raises until they couldn't win a home playoff game. Culture and trajectory. You should be very proud of your scumbag program.

I sided with Bobby at the time and still do.

Fair enough. I was and still am about 80/20 on the side of taking the timeout.

I have to believe the analytics would probably tell you about the same: 80% successful to take the TO

It's just if it goes pear shape for that other 20%, it's a really bad look. But you're probably correct: the right call was the TO.

Way to create a diversion from the obvious.

What's really funny is that years ago I utilized the feature to hide tag lines, and I honestly have no idea what mine even says.

Agree to disagree.

You lost because that formula obviously doesn't work.

You lost because you don't have a quarterback that can put a team on his back and win games like Grownowski. That seems to be a reoccurring thing with your coach.

My guess is that why your OC is leaving. When the OC leaves the rest of your skill players are gone. He was the only thing holding this team together.

So when is Pease leaving? When will the remaining skill players leave?

I’d like to know before renewing the season tickets that I have had for the last 30 years. Thanks.
