Hoops, I gotta ask, because it just doesn’t make sense to me. I guess, perhaps, a sign that I am dumb.
You say the Griz are better at most positions than MSU. You think the Griz coaches are better than what MSU has. So why, are they succeeding so much more than the Griz? If the talent is better, and the coaching is better, why isn’t the end result better? And don’t give me injuries. Every team has injuries.
Where did I say the Griz were better than the Cats at most positions? Was I responding to a troll. Give me the quote or quotes.
The Griz are better than the Cats at running back, receiver and linebacker. The Cats are better and deeper at QB. The Cat o-line has been playing much better than the Griz o-line this year, but the Griz o-line has played much better n recent games. Look at my long post comparing the 2 teams. That's what I think. I don't know about the other positions because I don't know those other Cat position groups.
The Griz coaches are very good. I don't believe for a second that the Cat coaches are better. They aren't.
Injuries are very important, especially at QB. So, I will give you injuries. Just like the 49ers were screwed last year in the playoffs. Don't give me BS that that that injury didn't kill the 49ers. Johnson was out for 2 critical road games, and then played most of the last half of the season with a torn ACL. That severely hampered him, and the Griz. Yes, we didn't have a backup. I understand that. UM was a semifinal team last season with a healthy Johnson.
If you don't think injuries are important to the game of football, especially to critical positions and top players, then you truly don't understand the game of football, or sport.
