I was talking to someone from Tennessee today. I told him that I was watching the team I played for play a playoff game this weekend. He asked me what team I played for. When I said EWU, he said "Oh they have the red turf, right?" Then he asked if I was on the team that won the Chipper. He asked who we were playing, I told him the university of montana. He said he wasn't familiar and asked if they were any good.

I've had many conversations very similar to this.

Tennessee, huh? You know, that makes sense.

Yeah, especially since, you know, Montana played at Tennessee a few years ago. And they played in Chattanooga every other year for an entire decade.

Yeah, that story's believable. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


What an idiot. Could've picked Oklahoma. Or Kansas. Or Florida. He picks Tennessee.

Ewoo grad. :msugrad:

Yeah because the grizz performance against the vols was so memorable...


Kept it a hell of a lot closer than you fvckers would've. And our fanbase didn't curse at any 81 year old ladies while doing it.


Your "program" could learn a few things from the GRIZ.

Like class.


But I wouldn't expect you to understand.

Ha! The only people that think grizz fans have class are grizz fans. You're like Oregon fans, but with a crappier resume.
 
And you're like Central Washington fans. Except without as nice of facilities, and you stink a hell of lot more.


Oh, wait, Central fans have class. So, you're not really like them.

You are trying way too hard here my man.

You have every right to puff your chest about the Eastern program. They have superior athletes and coaches right now. They have dominated the Griz recently, and supplanted them as THE team in the BSC. You have the best QB and WR in the country in my opinion, and I think you’ll make a run at the NC this year. Candidly, I don’t expect the game this weekend to be that close.

That said, this story is complete BS. To think Eastern is anywhere near UM in terms of national recognition is horseshit, and you know it. Even the most rabid, Griz hating troll would not agree with this.

Go ahead and boast about what EWU is on the field. You don’t need to make shit like this up to prove your point.

What is funny is I have had the same exact experience. You would be surprised how many people nationwide recognize us for the red turf. I've heard both hatred and admiration for the turf, but people recognize it all the same.

I think that Griz fans just get so caught up in always being surrounded by other Griz fans in Montana, that they don't realize their program doesn't really exist outside of their state. Sure, the Griz have created a better brand than most FCS programs, but in the thick of things, they aren't important.
 
I guess we all have a story or two that will fit whatever argument we want it to fit.

On Tuesday I was in a meeting with an investment advisor from ND. NDSU alum and season ticket holder. Knew all about the Griz and knew nothing about Eastern.

Bottom line fact: There is no way in hell that EWU is anywhere near UM in terms of national recognition. Not even close. Again, go ahead an boast about what happens on the field. You have the right too, but this argument is just insane.

Its not an argument. Its a story. And if mine is unbelievable because the grizz played and lost to the vols, than yours is ridiculous. I doubt that if this person follows NDSU football, he doesn't know EWU. That quarter final game should ring a bell, pun intended.
