GRIZ at Dixie GDT

This was a really nice win IMHO. I honestly thought this game would be a nail biter on the road. I really think this was a bigger test than last week and was a big improvement.
I am much more confident about this team going forward.

You can’t be serious?

43-0 before pulling the horses back is not good enough for you?

My comment was based on the previous poster stating it was a good win. I don’t agree. Nor do I believe playing a team like Utah Tech prepares the Griz for conference play.

Why? They're a full-fledged, fully-funded DI program. Is it Montana's fault that they're just vastly superior to Utah tech? Look, there are only 10-12 fcs teams in the entire nation who are as good as the top 5-6 in the bsc. Do you tell me: how do we schedule those teams every year?

We aren’t in the same conference so don’t have to play them in a non conference game——especially on a home and home basis. Our AD knew they would be an easy win when he scheduled them. Finally, it’s a real stretch when you refer to them as a Division 1 program to argue your point. Maybe, in 20 years they can be a credible program, let’s say 5 years, but not now.
 
Some move up proponent does Not understand the difficulty of scheduling OOC Games anymore than they're lack of understanding the basic economics of why the Griz can't possibly afford to move up no matter how hard one wishes they could...🙉🙊🙈

Why is it a stretch? Full scholarships, full D1 program. Do you feel the same when Tennessee plays Kent State?

It's not a home and home. It's a home and home and home home. Griz get 3 home games for one road game.

I couldn't disagree more. You can crap on Utah Tech but they have some very capable athletes. Just look at what they did last year toward the end of the season. Beating them on the road convincingly says way more about us than it does about them. The griz improved drastically from week one to this week and that is what we are all looking for.
 
I remember the days when the same comments were said about Eastern Washington... I takes time to build. a program and it appears they are taking all the right steps...
