Cal Poly our Long-time Rival?

[GlacierGrizX]

I started watching Griz football in about 1992, as a Cut Bank guy got a scholarship at line backer. Anyway, I went to GoGriz.com to sort of see who we played and Cal Poly was always basically scheduled. I am amazed at how long we have been playing Cal Poly. Besides our normal BSC foes, this has to be our longest rival?

Cal Poly came to Missoula in 1969, their first game outside of California since the tragic 1960 plane crash.

Location, location, location.

After all, they are almost next door. 19 games, 1969-2015, 15-4

Our real "Long-time Rival" is Idaho. 84 games, 1903-2003, 27-55-2

We did not have an answer for Ramses Barden, that guy killed us. Along with that RB that had 4 Tds

Huh. Barden had 3 receptions for 84 yards, and 1 TD. CP completed 8 for 130 yards. I think UM didn't have an answer for CP's running game, which got almost 300 yards. CP scored 35 points. Noble, the rb, had 4 TD's.

Poly is a great rival. You know how there are some teams you gotta hate (EWU, PSU), some you just sort of pity (ISU, NoCol and of course MSU) and some that are just...meh (Weber, SUU, Sac)? Well a few programs, NAU and NDU come to mind, like Poly, are my favorite rivals. They are usually good competition and are just interesting teams to watch too because of their styles.

Look outside of that one game, he performed very well against the Griz throughout his career I should have stated it that way, my bad
