...great game especially first half!...Bobby n Co..need to know their asses are on the line...when your push into a
corner you either come out swinging or quit....hoping for a strong finish!..............onward GO GRIZ!


Why would asses be on the line with a 6-1 record, and 2 wins in a row over top 25 teams? And playoffs and playoff wins the past 3 years. And final poll finishes of nos. 6, 6 and 14, which, on the 3-year average is better than all but 4 teams in FCS. And record season tickets and attendance at games. And the largest QB Club membership and annual Club money raised ever, by far. And liked by most of the top boosters, who have the big bucks for the program.

I really don't understand the dream world that some Griz fans live in.

I doubt if he is a Griz fan.

...of course I'm Griz fan you idiot...I've been season ticket holder for over 25 years...if Bobby
doesn't get us into the playoffs and lose to the Cats his job will be on the line..things will
change quickley....I know some top boosters too and they are keeping quiet to see how it
all plays out...

..every fan wants the Griz to win and if we don't I'm sure they be willing to make a change
..Bobby knows his jobs is on the line...he hasn't live up to his own standards what he promise
salesmanship only goes so far...you have to produce!...

..do I want Hauck to win absolutely and happy for the big win....l hope the tide has changed for
him...because he hasn't been stellar...he knows it too!

..you guys need to stop thinking you know all the inside track...l wonder what dream you live
in seeing the program take a drive since Pflugad...we use contend for the NC every year...we
still have one of the best fan bases and facilities in the FCS in spite of our fallen prominence
...every fan wants to win thats why we show up every year and renew our season tickets...
 
Guess I better have some of that crow as well. I had no faith that the Griz would win either of the last two games and clearly I was wrong. Still have some concerns, but I certainly like the improvements that we've seen recently.
 
I have no problem getting a bite myself. Anyone paying attention to how this season has gone would have had no issue with picking the Griz as underdogs. That is why sports are great. McDowell is a gamer and I need to eat crow there too because I clearly thought Vidlak had an arm up, but I was wrong. He is fun to watch.

Why? You must be new here. 1-3 vs. the Cats. Two of the losses by more than 30 points.
 
Getting blown out by the Cats is the primary reason for "unrest" among the troops. Beat the Cats and all will be forgiven for Bobby.
 
Very solid road win against a good team, and tbh, I didn't think would happen. I still believe that this offense has zero margin of error, and will struggle to overcome mistakes and any 2 score deficit in the second half. As for the Cats, love em or hate em, they are the best team in the BSC and it is not close.
 
I picked Idaho to win on our little poll. Primarily because I’ve been so impressed with McCoy. Even in this loss the kid showed he is a gifted athlete and threat on every pass play.

So okay I will eat my crow too. The rest of our season is far from clear sailing. Yet I love how this year’s Griz have shown improvement (offense & defense) each week since Flagstaff. Plenty of hard work ahead but I’m loving the trend! Go Griz

You are the idiot! What gives you the right to be a critic of Bobby Hauck and his coaching ability? Bobby’s job isn’t on the line and UM is fortunate to have him as our coach.
 
I prefer my crow to be old, and in a liquid form!
Consumed only in moderate amounts throughout the week,
while pondering my humilty. In this instance, I will be celebrating that
I was so wrong about the outcome of this game. Cheers Griz Nation!
A little Old Crow aint so bad every now and then.

Just a small portion, I think.

From videos I've watched, and people who have seen him "live," Vidlak does have "an arm" ... just not an "arm up." McDowell is getting better at it, but Vidlak still seems to be the better "pure passer." He seems to have a stronger arm, can make more throws, and probably has a better "touch." But, despite all that, there must be a reason V didn't get a lot of starts at his previous stops. Can't put my finger on a specific point, but I speculate that the young man has not been able to adjust – enough – to how the game "speeds up" when he gets into an actual game. Just a thought, but McD is clearly the better "gamer."

Are we sure?? Have they even been tested? Look, they may well be. But I just don't think you can make that declaration until they beat someone.

Pretty sure.
 
Two games ago I was not to optimistic. I was hoping for at least two wins to end the season. I am very glad I am wrong. Only one win away from a 7th win. Now I am thinking we finish with only one more loss. 9-2 is pretty good. We just need to play the second half like we played the first half.

Wake up, bozo! The first amendment gives him the right to criticize Hauck and he's not alone. Obviously you haven't been paying attention to Egriz for the last month. Everyone knows BH is on very thin ice.

He is bigger and stronger and faster. He throws better than people think. But in my opinion the biggest difference is that he is confident.
