I remember during the McGhee era many Griz fans stated that the success experienced by the Cats was going to end when he graduated. If not that, it was always the steadfast belief that the Cats and Griz couldn't be good programs at the same time. It appears as though Copper is still stuck in this mentality. Copper, the Cats got 7 fcs wins without beating the Griz. Sorry, but it isn't always about the Griz. Sure, it would be awesome to get another win in Missoula, but here it is apparent that the Griz need this win much more than the Cats do. The Cats have had sustained success after the McGhee era ended. This weekend's game won't be a referendum on that at all, except if you're a the kind of fan Copper says he isnt.
If it isn't always about the Griz, then why do so many cat fans post on here all off the time? I actually don't think the Griz need this win. The future is very bright for the Griz. Cats - you are stuck. Really stuck and if the OC leaves - yikes. You are worried about a Griz team that has been decimated by injuries this year. That is a huge compliment for the Grizzly program as a whole. New coach coming in next year, new facilities funded and going to be completed in the forseaable future, phenomenal recruiting class, best stadium in FCS. I feel pretty good little bro. Let it burn.
LOL. Expand your horizons bro. The 10 cats fans that post here is not a barometer for how the entire Cat fan base or the team feels. It's a rivalry game, so yes it is important to both teams. But I guarantee you that the Cats care a lot more about making it further in the post season than they do about the cat-griz game. The Eagles aren't gong anywhere. The Cats aren't going anywhere. ISU isn't going anywhere. If you think that the almighty griz are going to rise up and start dominating again, you are in for dissapointment. If any program has cause for worry it is YOURS. New head coach....who knows, you could get an amazing coach, or they could hire someone who shits the bed. The point is, the job is open, so uncertainty is there. Same goes for your QB situation...and no, getting an ace QB after losing your senior stud (like MSU did) is not typical. You are a griz fan, so naturally you feel that the future is bright, that you will land the best FCS coach of all time and your new QB will be the second coming of Christ. I get it. It's just my job to slap you in the face with reality. Carry on.
