Do the Griz win this Saturday?

To Poor: 6-5 Michigan just upset Ohio St at Ohio St. How does that fit with your narrative?

Oh it fits my "narrative" perfectly! I just found it strange that a fan would be calling out and highlighting all the upset possibilities, and upsets that actually happened today right before my team went into a game where they are the heavy favorites. Like I said, the griz better watch their asses tonight and not get over confident. There was already a team from Tennessee in the FCS tourney that sprung a huge upset today. But yes, I assume the point of your post was that the griz could get upset tonight.

My point is that you don’t know upsets occur and occur fairly often. You think your team wins every game even when they don’t. I always think my team will win or have a way to win, but I also know they will sometimes lose. One of us, you, never played the game and doesn’t understand the game.
 
And if we win tonight, IF, SDSU can't overlook us !!!

And I would quit talking crap, Shi##y Kitty--your SK's could get upset over the next few weeks and if that happens, their 12-0 season goes " POOF !"

lol. Great observation, other than the fact that it's 100% wrong. I understand way, way too well how upsets can happen.... I'm a Bobcat fan remember? The Cats could get upset next weekend when UT Martin comes to town, just as the griz could get upset tonight. But I do like how you're posting about how upsets a few hours before your team plays - and apparently posting this because you're thinking about how some team might upset the Bobcats down the road? What's the term everyone uses over here, rent free or something? Wow.

The bobcats have already won the conference and are 12-0. Not sure how that goes poof?
They could certainly get upset by any team left on the schedule. The games only get harder from here. But the odds will be with the bobcats in every game.

Pssst - that's how it works. Once you get throttled by your rival, and your team has less than a 1% chance of winning it all, you then shift to focusing on your rivals and try to convince they're not as good as they seem, and call out hoe they might get upset one of these days. Trust me, I used to behave this way when it was the other way around and the griz were the perennial powers in the conference rather than the Cats. I admit that.

Nothing I posted had anything to do with the Cats. I was talking about the Griz and SDSU. And I have been saying this for some time, nit just hours before game.

I don’t think the Cats will be favored in every game.

Sure it did. Here's your quote, responding to me. "You think your team wins every game even when they don’t." That is referring to the Cats.

As to the last part of your post, so you really WERE looking ahead and talking about the griz\SDSU matchup, assuming that the griz will win tonight? Again, seems strange you're banging the "upsets happen" drum before a game where it's possibly the griz get upset - but you do you. Feels to me you seem extremely confident there's no way the griz lose tonight.

I’ve watched Griz teams since 1959. This offense is loaded with talent and could break out anytime and it could happen against any FCS team——including SDSU. That is if Pease is back from vacation and we win tomorrow.

Completely agree. It's just a matter of time when we have a freak out game, seems it could be setup for 12-7.
This game we coast, no use showing the full offense until SDSU.

I think we obviously lost a lot of talent in last year's senior class--Gubner, Walker, Forbes, Cotton, Graves, Hill, Flink, Jancarro--and we do not yet have the talent and skill we had last year, and I think the 3-3-5 needs to be junked, and we should go back to the good ol' days of the solid 4-3-4, aka 1995 and 2001 !!!

The good news: we went 8-4 in a rebuilding year, and on paper at least, we have a promising incoming '25 freshman class with more talent, beef, and depth coming for both the O and D lines. Although we didn't live up to our preseason # 1, almost no team rated a preseason # 1 in The Big Sky finishes the regular season as conference champions. A lot of our fellow Big Sky peers would be over-the-moon happy with an 8-4 year-- Weber, Sac. State, Eastern, Northern Colorado, Idaho State !!!

While we really need some improvement in coaching and schemes and more talent, help is on the way in the three previous recruiting classes and this incoming class--the wheels are not coming off the GRIZ Cadillac, and next year, the Shi##y Kitties are going to experience what we experienced this year as Tommy Mellot, Wehr, Green, etc.graduate !!!

Go GRIZ !!!

We're a top 5 team opening the year next year and the favorite in the big sky. Before we add at qb. You guys have a ton of seniors off a mid team. This post is lol.

Ok then you'll be glad to put up the $100 in any game?

$100 that Cats won’t be favored in every game if they make it to the championship. So, no bet if Cats don’t make it to championship. If they do make it, you win if Cats are favored in every game. Cats don’t have to win championship.

Here’s the bad news.

In a so called rebuilding year, the Griz had far more juniors and seniors in the two deep than MSU did.

Yep, but I'm damn sure not going to start posting a few hours before our game how upsets happen, talking about when we meet up with a DSU in Frisco, etc.

If one is addressing the SDSU game in future now, one has to post now. It’s funny that you think your dumb view is any big deal. Typical of some of your posts. Off the wall and out to lunch.

While Griz had to do some rebuilding, I didn’t consider this a rebuilding year. But time is running out to play up to potential on both sides of ball in full game.
