WOW, this year's GRIZ team is truly a Jeckyl and Hyde team. We never know which will appear when.
QB play, regardless of who has played has been great and bad by all 3 QB's. Game 2 under Simis has me eating crow. I honestly believed he had it in himself to play better. Instead, it looks like we are back to Gustafson starting. Here is to hoping the GRIZ see the NDSU Gustafson.
Offensive Line play has been mostly inconsistent, yet again this year. How many years are we at with inconsistent OL play now?
Defense has been mostly good, but have been exposed against good running teams with mobile QB's. The DL needs to be stronger and bigger in the middle.
Coaching, I am disappointed at the inconsistencies we have seen this season. I will keep the faith in Stitt. I feel he made great hires for his staff. I honestly thought the OL play would be dramatically improved this season with Chad Germer returning to coach them. That has not happened. Maybe the OL talent we recruited the past 4 years has not been very good? So much of our offensive struggles can be contributed to inconsistent and too often bad offensive line play. It has hamstrung the whole offense.
The bright side to Jeckyl and Hyde, the GRIZ have 3 regular season games left. The good GRIZ team should show up for 2 of the 3 games, starting with ISU. A 6-5 record is looking very possible. Then again, who really knows with this year's team? Also the GRIZ will have plenty of experience at QB going into next season. Here is to hoping the GRIZ continue to land quality OL and big DT's this recruiting year. The GRIZ are in dire need in those positions.
I won't comment much on the Portland State game. I am pissed and disappointed. No need to depress GRIZ NATION any further. We are all facing the fact, this year's team is no better than an average team this season.
