If they continue at this rate the scats will be forfeiting their last 2 games...

I assume you're talking to the OP? The idea that the Cats will need to forfeit the last two games is absurd. Due to years of exceptional recruiting and development, including the large number of reps from the 2s and 3s this year, this team will remain a strong contender for a trip to Frisco.

A strong contender for a trip to Frisco isn’t saying much in the FCS. Year in and year out, we are down to about six teams that can make that statement. Bozeman is one of them, but it isn’t like you are going out on a limb there. You could say the same for the Griz, NDSU and SDSU. The other two teams are hanging in the balance. I would have said Idaho, but they imploded this year. UND and USD? Maybe. Just isn’t that impressive a division anymore. Stinks and the portal probably isn’t going to help the situation.
 
True. No argument on that. All I'll say is that the benefit of destroying teams every week is the young guys have played a whole bunch already. Guys like Tayden Grey, Taki Uluilakepa, and Talon Marsh have flashed in their opportunities. But yeah. If the wheels keep falling off the bus, the Cats will not be the same team.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the assertion 3rd stringers playing against MSU's cupcake opponents is quality playing experience. From the highlights I've seen, the MSU backups get better reps against the sleds in practice. Double reps better.

UND will be lucky to get a seed for playoffs. They are on a downward spiral

lol. A downward spiral? You are such a great example of the worst of your fan base. Purely delusional. They just lost on the road to a top 3 team in the country. Their only other loss is a top ten FBS team. They will win their next three games. They also absolutely destroyed a team you guys struggled with.

Now they may lose to SDSU as well and USD will be a heck of a game. Now that they are seeding 16 it’s hard to say. Have the cats played a team that will make the playoffs?

So ISU losing by 24 on the road is getting destroyed, but if MSU wins by 20 on the road it's struggling?

They have not.

And I'd take NoDak straight-up against the bubs in bozo and would give 8 points in the Polaris Dome (or whatever the hell they call it).

Probably UI, they have a good schedule the rest of the season and could finish 8-4 or 9-3 with an FBS win. Unless they totally implode its pretty likely that they are seeded higher that the gris. Their Defense will carry them through.

FIFY

24 and 13 pts to FBS the firs two weeks and 24, 28, 23 and 38 to FCS teams the last 4 weeks. This defense is certainly on a trend, but its not the kind of trend you want for a seed.

If they don't get healthy at QB soon, they could lose to EWU or Weber. They have the 2nd worst offense in the entire conference.

24 and 13 pts to FBS the firs two weeks and 24, 28, 23 and (38 to the #2 total offenses and #2 rushing offense in the FCS) to FCS teams the last 4 weeks. This defense is certainly on a trend, but its not the kind of trend you want for a seed.
FIFY

Down the stretch of the season the play CP, EWU, PSU, WSU & ISU. I think their defense will hold up through that schedule
 
These jokers still don't get it. Cats are in a downward spiral. Vigen can't coach or recruit, was just loving off Choates recruits and lucked into getting them to Frisco the first year. Our record is only good because we haven't played anybody. Tommy can't pass, is just a RB playing QB. Cats will be lucky to make the playoffs.
 
So that’s a yes. Catsplaining and revisionist history doesn’t undo historical facts. Just to point out the FCS/1AA wasn’t founded until 1978 which is why you guys have a division 2 national title. Both schools also were independent at various points prior to the formation of the Big Sky conference.

Also why would you go back to the start of your 4 win “streak” to make an arbitrary point. But yeah it’s pretty even in the last 10 years at 5-5 and 11-10 in our favor since you ended the streak.
Yes I was a little too fast in my response and you're correct, we both played DII in the BSC until 1978, and the IAA/FCS forward. Good catch.

My point was was to show you some of the worst losses in the entire history of gris football when, while playing at the highest level in the same conference at Stanford, Oregon, Oregon St, Cal, USC, U Washington, and Wazzu, you still managed to lose several times to the NAIA Bobcats. It was even more embarrassing for the gris during your time in the Skyline Conference playing along side BYU, Utah, Utah St, CU, Colorado St, and New Mexico. You lost to the NAIA Bobcats all the freaking time in that phase, including 4 in a row and 5 out 6 in one period. Gaaawwd that was a dark time for the gris program.

The fact that the overall series isn't worse than it is should be utterly humiliating to gris fans. Embarrassing for you to always bring it up. In spite of the 16 game streak, soon the series will be squared up for when each team is at the same level and in the same conference. Can't wait. Hopefully we get two from you this year.

You’re coping so hard here lmao

Keep repeating yourself and someday someone might take you seriously. You guys should understand what embarrassment feels like but after last years debacle and the drunk coordinator debacle, I really don’t think it’s something you’re capable of feeling.
