Whale of a game on special teams.

GREAT block to spring Jamaal Jones on the KO return after UND's long TD run to start the game, then the HUGE hit on the punter that really put him out of commission on the fake punt.

Can't wait to see that guy take over a LB spot next year.

Loved everything he did on the fake punt:

- didn't get fooled
- rolled through his blocker
- lit up the punter while being held from blocker
- walked off field like he had been there done that a lot

I am sure Coach Bubba said to himself, "Well, we won't try that again...".

100% agree...especially how he walked off not being a showboat

+1 Hookedongriz...also think he should be playing more this year, but oh well, next year will be exciting with him and Buss!

Our linebacking pond is sure stocked well.... Amazing how the Griz just seem to re-load at the position each and every year!!

Strahm plays a ton

Strahm, Buss and Cirmon?

I think Alex Thomas will move into a starting role next season, and there's a pretty real possibility Scheye will go back to LB. Cirmon and Dante Olson are future beasts though.

Schye. Forgot about him. Whoops!

Who is this Cirmon guy?

Fa'autuise (whatever) will be big too IMO. The guy is huge. In our new training program that emphasizes athleticism, quickness, and explosiveness, big bodies coming in are really going to benefit.

Strahm and Buss play mean, I love it. Strahm is always talking on ST, watch him on kick offs - he's giving guys opposite of him warnings that he's going to run them over. I think he's drawn at least 1, if not 2 personal foul flags from opposing teams. Buss just loves to hit guys it seems. And fast as hell. These two will presumably have their bumps in transitioning to starters next season but man I'm excited for these two.

There's absolutely no denying TG has built the LB situation at UM into something special. And I really like the way these guys have to wait their turn, they learn from All-Americans ahead of them and move up. The trio the Griz have starting now did it, and I expect next year will be no different.

I bet the punter wanted to punt Coach Bubba's nuts

Damn. You're right. I forgot about HIM too!
