Griz vs. Badger Predictions...

My take: Tinkle and staff are smart enough to watch the Iowa games and take a page from the Hawkeye playbook. Montana and Iowa are not that dissimilar. Neither are that big and sluggo inside but both have enough quicks and toughs to play with the likes of Wisconsin.

I have the Griz by 6.
 
As you know, I don't drink the Kool-Aid. UW has trouble scoring, and the Griz defense can be stifling. If the Griz shoot well, and I think they will, we will win. This is not a Kool-Aided call, this is a basketball knowledge call. In fact, I am going to put my money where my mouth is and bet $1000 on the Griz + points.

My prediction:


Montana 56
Wisconsin 51
 
Football season got me superstitious about score predictions. I stopped making them, and the GRIZ got a rolling. This basketball season, I have not been venturing predictions often, and keep it this way. Believe it, or not, I enjoy the games more without the predictions.

I do expect an ugly game, as for the offenses. It will take 55 to 60 to win it though. :thumb:
 
As you know, I am the smartest person on here and don't wear marroon tinted sunglasses like the rest of you minion sheep. Wisconsin is [put obvious here] and the Griz are [put obvious here]. Because I make more money than anybody on this board and have coached, refed, know everybody worth anything, flew first class with [name drop here] and am just a prodigy genious of the game of basketball and everything else, this as an absolute knowledge call that I'm going to drop $10k on. This isn't a prediction like all the other pedestrian fans that are beneath me are making. Griz 57 Wisconsin 56 .

Your jealousy of me drips from your lame attempt at sarcasm. Just sayin'. Must be pretty dull and boring up on the Highline these days. But keep obessessin'.

Oh, and you do indeed drink the Kool-Aid, as badly as anyone on here. ;)

Good Luck, On Wisconsin. Maybe some day you guys can come to Camp Randall and play the FB Badgers?!! We almost lost to Cal Poly a few years back:)


Have been to Camp Randall a couple of times. Loved it! Great atmosphere. Great people.

I'm from the Highline and live in Oregon now. Although, I'm glad you don't live up on the Highline, because with your ego and self inflating douchebaggery, someone would have put you in the hospital by now. Not jealous of you. I know many sucessful people and have a great and deep respect for anyone that has made a lucrative life for themself. I look up to them and learn as much as I can from them because they are great people. Most people who have real credibility don't need to go around bragging about how much they know or who they know, much less go on a fan message board to talk about how "special" they are. Name dropping and trying to inflate your status on a message board is pretty pathetic in my book.

I don't drink Kool-Aid. I form my own objective opinions. Many of which have been slammed by other posters as being "anti-griz". However, there are a lot of opinions on here. That's the beauty of having this forum, at least for me. It's good to read others perspectives. It's fun and if someone disagrees with me I don't take it personally. You on the other hand try to use this forum to self-inflate your ego and attempt to build this image as a credible expert on all things sports. You fail miserably because everybody on here thinks you are a joke. Now, back to smelling your own farts.

Sorry for derailing the thread everyone.
 
I have a feeling this game is gonna be reminiscent of some of their recent comebacks. Behind first half and bring it in the second. Griz 67 Badgers56

It is absolutely crucial that we come out and play well in the first half.

Washington: down by 20 in the first 10 minutes....get it back to within six.

New Mexico: down by 20 late first half and very early second half....get it back to within one and a chance to take a lead with a missed AJ 15 footer and a missed bunny.

Need a good first half....won't have as many possesions in the second half to come back.
 
Just want to warn the Griz fans: UW wins ugly, you could very well be up at halftime. My prediction (though I have not watched UM) your lack of depth will cost you, UW will pull away in the 2nd half by getting fouls. Don't blame the refs if (emphasis on IF, I'm not trolling) we win though. Playing position defense is not flopping.

In that respect, I think the only depth problem we will have is foul trouble. But even then it seems someone from the bench for us has their "big game". Our guys are use to playing lots of minutes and at high altitudes also. That could be a killer for the Badgers.
 
Altitude is overrated!...Two days is a head start on building up oxygen red corpuscle blood cells. Anyhow Albuquerque, 5,314 (avg) Ehhh...Boulder 5,430 and Laramie 7,165 and I've seen visitors from sea level kick the crap out of both the Cowboys and Buffaloes...most recently Stanford in Boulder... Fugetaboutit!

Oh my, this is getting confusing. I can't for the life of me tell the "Kool-Aided" predictions from the "basketball knowledge" predictions. Can anybody help me? Does the NCAA publish some sort of guide about this?

LOL! So you've seen home teams lose at higher elevation! What the hell does that have to do with talking about these 2 teams? Nothing. I never said high elevation is an only factor, that would be stupid, but If it's so overrated, why do coaches and commentators even talk about it then?
 
They just said Wisconsin's athletic budget is 88 million. Would't that about run our entire university system?

Not quite. But it is roughly 3/4 of UM's entire annual budget.

No confusion. Everyone knows which category your predication falls under.

That's cool, if you can't handle someone mentally, just put 'em in the hospital. :lol: Is that the Highline way? Give me a break. Go back to sleep. And, spin it any way you wish, but yes you are jealous.
