Griz - Cat Game Thread

36 min 21 seconds of sleep walking, a little intensity, WAY too late.

Too bad, a great crowd waiting for the guys to show up, getting hammered on the boards, standing around flatfooted as the catz exploited the lane and baseline...

A great opportunity to move bb up a notch...wasted...
 
This game reminded me a lot of Tinkle's first 2 or 3 seasons at UM. Pretty lackluster, leaving you wondering what else you could have done with the previous 2 hours of your life.

It was clear that Qvale wasn't Qvale. Said strep throat/missed practice in pre-game. Without him, the chemistry crumbled. Players looked like they were perpetually confused throughout the game.

I'd be shocked if this Griz team makes the semi's. They have two guys that play with heart and guts, Cherry and Johnson. That's it.
Pretty well put! One other problem though is TInks' inability to recognize that the Griz play much better D in zone than man. Why doesn't he see this? :o

Perhaps he is working on the "deer in the headlights" look that he apparently inherited from BH.

funny, I was wondering the exact thing, why not pack it in...the catz were killing us with quicks and the inside passing...should have made them beat us outside...qvale or no qvale
 
I can never figure the Griz out, the last three games against the Cats have seemed like MSU just wanted to win more. We don't really have any size inside but were outrebounding the Griz more through effort than anything.

I still think the Griz have a better shot of making a big run in the playoffs but need their supporting cast outside of Qvale/Johnson/Cherry to step up from game to game. MSU just doesn't have any margin for error with their talent and style of play.

Selvig looks like he is starting to contribute in a meaningful way which should help you guys going into the tournament.

I do think that whoever wins the Big Sky tournament will get waxed during March Madness.

I can't believe the Cats just swept the Griz in Missoula. Great weekend

What in the hell does mormons have to do with anything.

I believe he meant "MORONS".
nope, I meant mormon...cause if you can believe that crap, and believe Weber State is going to be competitive in the NCAA tourney if they get that far, you are one dumb cluck..

Yeah we know you are not much of a fan of slow white Montana kids, just like football.

Hammer, all you do on this board is knock down posts that assert anything, without offering any reasonable counter arguments, and this is a prime example. Ronbo is right. So, Hammer, you are a fan of "slow white Montana kids"? What does race have to do with it? The fact that Cherry & Johnson were the only 2 on that team tonight with any spunk has nothing to do with their race. They could have been white guys & what Ronbo said would still be true, and white guys can be just as fast & quick. We just didn't have the white guys to be that, MT kids, or not.

Where was the vaunted Staudacher? Staudacher is hugely overrated. Ok, Qvale was sick. Why play him? He wasn't going to be effective, anyway, as we got beaten soundly on rebounds. McGillis was a no-show & I can't understand why Tinks prefers him over Banny. I can't see why Tinks has not stuck with the lineup used in defeating Weber State. That's the team Tinks should be fielding.

Thank god we had Cherry & Johnson. Otherwise, this would have been a blowout.

Just because AJ hit a few 3's at the end doesn't mean it was a competitive game. That game was a blowout from the outset. Aside from not giving up 40 points to the Cat's, it reminded me a LOT of the Senior night debacle two years ago.
 
It wasn't happening for the Griz tonight, although the late comeback took some of the frustration out of the game, at least for me.

The crowd was large, but rarely loud or into the game. This was in part because the Cats kept the crowd out of the game, but also because the crowd wouldn't even cheer when the Griz would run off 4 or so points in a row.

That one ref really does suck (as he does in almost every game). He needs to be moved on.

There was some intensity at courtside in the chairs toward the student section. Russum, Quinn, Balogh, Verlanic, Hillesland, Jimmy Farris, Izzo--all dressed up in sports coats. The Pearl Jam guy was courtside too.

This is the same douchebag who blamed the refs for the "UNC" "University of Nobody Cares" loss in Ogden on the refs. :lol: :lol: :lol: :clap: :clap: :thumb: :thumb:

*** The refs threw on their yeller Bears shirts after the game and hopped on the chartered bus back to Greeley, and we still kicked their A$$es. :clap: :thumb:

now you're pissing me off. :x not because of your weak smack, but because you once again having me defending the hated griz! face it...you talk big sky conference, and you talk cat-griz. or griz-cat. no one cares about weber. or eastern washington. or anyone else. the griz flat out dominate in football. they are the team the rest of us strive to be. basketball is way more open, but don't kid yourself, weber is far from a powerhouse. are you really bragging about your regular season big sky conference winning record? :shock: congrats. i'm sure espn is en route as a type this to mormon, usa to cover this amazing story. and during this amazing run of victories how many times have you guys represented the big sky in the national tourney? you are an idiot. the griz are the best team in the conference, and my cats beat them last night. :clap: no one is afraid of weber, and once again they won't be big sky champs. i look forward to next week when you go into hiding after running your mouth for the past month. weber sucks. cat/griz carry this conference....

Laughable :lol: The only thing MSU carries NOTHING MSU sucks. I don't think you will even make it to Ogden.
 
the fact that you're on this board proves my point. you care more about what the cats and griz are doing than weber. the fact that you're name is based on a current player just shows that you hopped on the wagon when weber started playing well. remember what happened to weber in the tourney last year? i don't suppose you'd want to put your money where your mouth is regarding the cats making it to ogden would ya? of course you probably don't bet being from utah huh? we could bet some of that great water you call beer in that horrible state. you probably don't drink beer. in fact, it just occured to me that i'm definitely dealing with a middle school or perhaps a high school kid here. great work on winning regular season games though. :clap: now if you could just figure out how to win the tourney...

UM is the best team in conference and they have the 4 seed? :roll: :lol: :clap: :thumb: :thumb:
 
All of the Griz football coaches were introduced at halftime. The new d-line coach is huge and looks like he was a stud back in his day--maybe still is today.

It just occurred to me that I'm dealing with somebody in the Montana State Trailer Park Mental and Behavioral Facility. MSTPM&BF. :thumb: :thumb: That's ok though. :shock:
