Nope, sorry dude. The rocking stadium and Cat team is going to be too much for the visiting team to handle.
The only reason your stadium rocks is because it's built by the same guys who built that roof that collapsed and the Meineke car care center next to your field (Is that place still standing?).
Ouch

Because the Griz have never played in a rocking stadium before :roll: … The litter box has nothing on WGS

You'd be surprised if you were in that stadium coming up here on the 19th. It was off the hook at Cat griz 2019 and might have even been louder in semis vs SDSU last year. I'm thinking this year Cat griz might even top that based on how overconfident griz nation is in a blowout win in Bozeman. Times have changed. This isn't 2002.

It doesn’t FEEL like most of us… Granted that there has been some hootin and hollerin over the CP win, but I think it’s mostly a cathartic response from the month of October.

Unless we have the unexplainable game like we did against Idaho we beat them walking away. But unfortunately EWU does consider THIS game each year their Super Bowl and would love nothing more than to make our trip to the playoffs almost impossible if they win.

They have a very, very bad defense...I mean extremely bad. Griz should produce over 500 yards of offense in this game and win by 3 TDs +.
They got pushed around pretty bad by Weber but I don't think they are that bad. I hate it when people call competing div I athletes bad.

They are dead last in the BSC in defense. They give up an AVERAGE of 42 points a game. Opponents average 6.2 yards per carry and 13.12 yards per catch against them. They give up 525 yards of offense per game.

They have given up FIFTY ONE touchdowns! By comparison, Montana’s D has given up 17.

Now granted, those stats are somewhat skewed by their two P5 losses, but even in conference play the only three teams that give up more points are CP, UNC and PSU. And they just don’t score like they used to, averaging just 25 points in conference play per game.

They are bad. There’s really no other way to frame it…
 
EWU is down this year, but they are not horrible or pathetic. I think the Griz will clobber them, but their record makes them look worse than they are. They have some good players, especially on offense.

The post wasn't directed at any player. Their defense is 122/123 in the FCS. That's bad. I think they know this.

I understood what you were saying and I don't disagree.
 
For a quarter century Eastern has played us as tough as anyone. They aren’t as strong as last few years but they’re always dangerous for the big play. Expect a Griz win but don’t be surprised if it takes awhile to cinch it up. This should be an entertaining game.
 
Most years i'm excited for this game but you guys are going to roll us....Bobby will pound the ball and we can't stop it. We will get back on track, but you are gonna own us tomorrow, unfortunately.

I hope that’s the case. It would be a good sign for your program if they were able to show some fight despite how the season has gone though.

Since you’re over here. How in Gods name can you watch a seasons worth of home games on that turf? Is there special glasses they sell in Cheney?

Its way better in person than on TV...Its tough on TV. Plus Eags have a natty and runner up since it was installed so we can put up with it if the winning continues...

I wouldn't use the term "better," but the red turf is less offensive in person than it is on television.

Has that team quit on Best? I never thought he was the greatest coach, and now he’s using ALL his own recruits and this happens?

I believe they have…

We lost a ton of great talent from last year, some who could have played this year…

Our 2 wins are a bad Tn state team and Cal Poly who gave us the game. We aren’t good this year and I believe some have quit on Best

GT was probably our safest choice at QB but Best really didn’t have a competition and named GT the starter in the spring, we have some studs at QB that are young that should’ve been give A shot…I think that started things…

Honestly, I never got the sense those players bought into him from the beginning. He had great success with Baldwin’s recruits, but the Pre-COVID EWU and the post-COVID EWU have been two different animals.

Damn straight you do. If Eastern can't get into the playoffs this year, then Montana doesn't either. FTG! GoEAGS! :twisted:

Very cool pic. Definitely a game to crow about.

But hey, I have a vague memory of another game last year.

Anyone remember what happened?

Don't edit my posts dumbass.

What few fans there are of that "program" is why we all hate the ewooooers.
