No reasoning with these jizz tards. Let them think their shitty football team causes hangovers while they watch the playoffs from the sidelines. .again..

How much are you willing to wager on that ridiculous claim? :roll: :roll:


Making actual money bets on egriz is silly Az. I tell you what, I will eat as much crow as you want and admit I was an asshole and wrong if you are right. And you?

Why is it "silly"? I have paid (and received payment) on multiple friendly wagers from folks here and on cs.com. But I understand...I wouldn't want to put any money against that retarded statement had I made it either. 8-)

The Griz Hangover is a myth. Statistically speaking, since 2000, UM's Big Sky Conference opponents have had an overall record of 734-873 for a 45.68% combined winning percentage. Their record after they play the Griz is a combined 49-62 for a winning % of 44.14%.

I will leave it to Oredigger to speak towards standard deviations from the mean and if he would like as he likely has better access to SPSS or some other statistical analysis programs than I do.

Included in the data set are all of the current Big Sky teams as well as Cal-State Northridge for the 2 years they were still in the conference (2000-2001).

What is the actual records of the teams who are in that 44.14%?

I think close game. cats up late, but EWU scores...recovers onside kick...and scores again to pull out the W at home.

Ouch, don't like even hearing the sound of that scenario again.

So are the Griz hangover theorists still out there? And if so, what's wrong with the data above?


I am sure PR is crunching numbers as I type to prove the "Griz Hangover" is real....

How did you gather the data?


As long as fans from opposing teams' stadiums rush the field when they beat the griz, the Myth shall live on. We appreciate the homage.

I looked at every Big Sky team's schedule since 2000. It was time-consuming building the spreadsheet to keep proper track of it all, but to dispel the "Griz Hangover" effect I think it was worth the time.

If you'd like, I can e-mail the spreadsheet.

shouldn't the BSC overall winning percentage be 50%? Every conference game has one winner and one loser, overall aggregate percentage should be 50%

Am I missing something?

This is overall records for those teams and the teams don't always play conference opponents following the game against the Griz.

In the case of UNC, SUU, and Cal Poly, they were not part of the Big Sky when they first played the Griz. To be conclusive, I gathered data from all of the teams who are in, or have been in the Big Sky since 2000. UND and UNC were D2 for many of those years so their records are only included since they moved up to 1-AA.

If you would like the spreadsheet I'd be happy to e-mail it to you.

BIGskyFan33 is by far and away the biggest douche we've had on this message board in quite some time... But how can you not love his unbelievably clever play on words he always uses...such as using JIZZ instead of GRIZ..he replaces the G...with a J....OMG this guy is pure gold...or when hes really feeling intelligent sometimes he even say WAJIZZ stadium instead of the actual stadium we play in which is WAGRIZ...you get it..hes making fun of us..and making words sound like other words....this guys good!

Go away you douche of a human.
But sCats, scats, cants, boobscats, kittens, kittehs(!), litter box and everything else Griz (see, I spelled it right!) fans come up with is totally cool, right? The irony is overwhelming.

I think those are lame too, and try not to use them. But, Litter Box? I honestly thought that was the nickname of Reno Sales Stadium. Seriously.

It was renamed the Ash Tray after the Griz smoked 'em 36-10 in 2011.

do the numbers change when you analyze the Griz out of conference games?

Man, there are so many teams out there that have played the Griz in out of conference games. For the purposes of this, I figured that the best way to analyze would be to take divisional opponents, ones who would have a reason to "get up" for the game, who may experience the "hangover" afterward. Taking the numerous D2 teams who the Griz have played or the other FBS schools such as Tennessee and Oregon, wouldn't have any real bearing on this effect as they don't necessarily see the Griz as the "target" team.

Frankly, it took a shitload of time to put the data together as well, so adding that many more teams into it seemed overly exhaustive. I know that many of the gripes that people have had was the Cats playing teams right after the Griz. The Cats have done that 33 times since 2000 compared to the Griz playing a team 1 week after the Cats only 19 times.

The data doesn't seem to point to that having any bearing on the Cats' success rate. In fact, it seems as if it may help the Griz more than it does the Cats.
