ILTC my post wasn't necessarily addressed at you, but more at Cat fans in general. I agree completely with your post, and I did do what fans of both schools are guilty of, which is lumping what all Cat fans think based on what a couple fans may say. I actually think you are one of the most rational posters on the board.

But I am enjoying the role reversal between the Cats and the Griz year, and watching Cat fans being in the position that Griz fans have been in for years, which is responding to claims that the Cats are overrated. Cat fans are not used to being in that position, and can really only respond in one of two ways: (1) admit they're overrated; or (2) defend the ranking with the usual "we've played best DII team, non-scholarship team, and the best front 7 we'll face all year" arguments. I have the feeling this is going to go on all year, and I think we'll see most Cat fans end up arguing both positions at different times depending on the situation. We're already seeing the "remember what the Griz did in (insert year, game or situation, as the case may be) argument. As a Griz fan I'm kind of enjoying not having to constantly defend the Griz ranking, while watching Cat fans squirm defending theirs. :mrgreen:

If you are gonna try and quote me, get it right, I have never said that MSU is deserving of the #2 ranking, and my comment about facing "the best front 7 we will see" was during the "regular season" not "all season", (there is a difference) and it was in the context of the progression of our young OL not in "defending" any ranking.

I think you need some basic reading comprehension classes :thumb:

good post. i rarely get involved in the back and forth but rather sit back and enjoy the show if you will. arguing cat-griz is every bit as dumb as arguing republican-democrat. some will be of the opinion that their party/team can never do anything wrong ever. others are smart enough to call it like they see it. in this case here's how i see it....

cat griz is a great rivalry but one that some fans take WAY too seriously. i am convinced there are people out there who if they saw fans of the "other" team stranded on the side of the road they wouldn't stop and help because of the hate. it's asinine to me. i have been through real-life tragedy and i'm not about to get caught up in nonsense because i love the cats. that said, i love the back and forth that goes on and i never mind seeing the griz lose. but there are far bigger things in my life than whether the cats win on saturdays...

as for this year i have a few thoughts. i like our team this year. we had nearly every player on the roster stick around this summer and i love that. i appreciate the #2 ranking but it's not like there was an auction and crazy cat fans put up the most money to get that spot. it's a ranking. it's fun but pointless. you don't have to remind me when we were #1 and got smashed by 3 td's at home. however, i would love to keep our ranking around #2 for the purpose of playoff seeding and i think that is reasonable. as to whether we're the 2nd best team in the country.....i have no idea. we certainly haven't played like it but you don't get a trophy for being 2nd. especially being 2nd in september. that said, if all the pieces fall in place and make the championship or even win the damn thing....i guess we can look back on september 20th and say we were at least the 2nd best team. it means nothing.

i think many fans look at things the same way i do. but there are always going to be those that don't. i have no doubt some cat fans are giddy right now and think we're the best thing since sliced bread. i don't speak for them. just because a guy lives in bozeman or likes the cats doesn't mean we're the same. if we were, you'd never see bar fights and every person in missoula would love eachother because you're all griz. don't think you have to look any farther than this board to see that ALL griz fans certainly aren't the same. :lol:

i think some of the things i've read about the cats are both true and false. our line is our weakest link no doubt. but to say they can't improve as the season goes on is silly. they alreasy look much better than against chadron. and while they are smaller than the griz line that is huge, they stack up pretty good with most o-lines in the conference. but i think most cat fans are aware that our last two playoff exits were do in large part to very poor line play on both sides of the ball.

i also disagree with the idea that mcghee has been running for his life. he's an athletic qb and if his reads aren't there he'll use his feet. but i think some are mistaking his scrambling for running for his life which i don't think is fair. clearly our line can always give him more time, but i don't think they are hurting us in this regard as much as some people have claimed.

bottom line is we haven't even started league play yet. we have no idea what our teams are going to look like in 2 months. but no doubt they will be filled with back and forth jibberish about who lost by more, which fans were loudest, who's team is faking injuries, and how much better "my" team is than "your" team. :roll:

I would hep, but only if they say E__ S___ G______ G_ C___ G_ first :lol: :lol:

Interesting and I agree he is not talking smack. Unfortunately, I believe Cat fans have become delusional and everyone keeps saying they are ready to take the next step. Tired of hearing this same line - over and over again. I have noticed a common theme over the years with the Brawl of The Wild. The Griz lose frequently after a coaching change. I believe that makes sense and if anything bodes well for the Cats - it would be we have another coaching change. Having said that, Mick and the other coaches will use the week before to scheme and prepare. Don't forget about home field and crowd advantage. One factor that is not predictable is injuries. Way to early in the season to make predictions about the Brawl. Will either team have a healthy o-line, d-line, QB, secondary, etc. I prefer to take this season one game at a time. November will be here soon enough.

You are right of course, but home field hasn't helped either team in the past two years.
And I also prefer to take the season one game at a time.

No you didn't, but since I am one of the best posters here and you're use of my "the best front 7 we will see" comment makes it obvious. 8-)

After all this banter back and forth there is but one undeniable truth...the cats are overrated at being number 2 in the FCS.

Actually the undeniable truth is that polls mean jack squat this early in the season.

phat cat...why do fans need to worry about jerome souers and the jacks? Did I miss something? Is this a special game? are they allowing us (fans) to suit up and play or coach? Shit, if so, where do I sign up? As soon as I get my uniform or my headset, then I'll start being scared of Northern Arizona.

Looks like you did miss something smart ass. A win. Keep yappin, Your goin down in Washington next. You heard it from me first.......

Looks like you were a little overrated too. Just worry about your team and not what's said on our boring sports forum. I told ya Souers was comin for blood. Knocks off Bobby at UNLV, then you. It's been coming for a long time. If JJ was playing this doen't happen. Oh, and BTW, blgsgrizfan. I think you suck cock by choice. But that's your deal.
 
i dint miss anything phatcat, BECAUSE...like i said before the game, FANS don't play...I didn't lose to NAU douche, the team i love and cheer for did...
