The D will be very good. Seemingly deep everywhere except corner. A huge number of good linebackers. Young d-line players itching to get on field and make impact.
O looks very talented and deep, subject to how good the qb play will be. We will have to see how good the qb’s are, but qb is not a “huge question.”
UM is not “continuing to be pummeled” by the Cats. UM pummeled the Cats the prior season. Losses to the likes of NDSU and JMU in the playoffs are not embarrassing. Those were great teams at top of FCS.
Try starting with the facts, instead of your narrative.
You mean my narrative like your fact-less narrative that the Griz only lost because Johnson got hurt. A narrative like that one?
Facts? You want facts? Does losing to the Cats 4 of the past 5 years, and finishing no higher than third in the conference during Hauck's tenure count as facts??? Inquiring minds want to know. Spin that one, Sparky!
The conference rankings have had a LOT to do with the schedule, to be fair. We have also gone from in the 30's in national ranking to being a consistent top team in the eyes of other coaches and the media. Yes, it sucks losing to the Cats, but you are acting like we haven't been on a giant upward trajectory for the past five years. Last year was the first one that we ended up lower than expected. We have been producing very strong football teams.
What fun is it for you to be a "fan" of a team and just constantly be negative about them? I honestly don't get where your joy comes from here. I'm not attacking you, that is a genuine question.
