Montana vs. PSU Game Thread

[first11]

Boy that's a small gym... You would hope they would be able to sell that place out consistently.

PSU has like 28K students, but they have a commuter school mentality, a giant comm. college and it shows....

Anyone else notice how supportive the griz bench is? I love to see the bench players get excited and cheer on cheer on their mates. Gregory seems to be the biggest cheerleader.

 

[grizindabox]

Thing I like is they are a very unselfish team.

 

[Mavman]

come on griz finish strong!

 

[MissoulaMarinerFan]

Griz up 61-52, about 5 min. left.

 

[MissoulaMarinerFan]

Griz up by 9, 2:40 left.

 

[first11]

another huge area of improvement is our free throw shooting....near 90% today..

Griz letting it slip

 

[MissoulaMarinerFan]

Griz playing hang on, need to get it together, Griz up 65-61, 1:26 left.

 

[Mavman]

Shoot psu back within four 1:26 to go

 

[Mavman]

Griz can not piss this one away! Down to a one possesion game!

 

[MissoulaMarinerFan]

Griz up 68-65, 15 secs left. I'm not liking our chances if this goes to OT.

 

[Mavman]

68-65 14 seconds left psu with the ball. DEFENSE GRIZ

 

[first11]

saved by the clock

A little too close for my liking, but will take a road W, anytime.

 

[MissoulaMarinerFan]

Griz hang on and win on the road, 69-67. Phew!

 

[Mavman]

Wow what a game! Should probably not have been so close but a win on the road is a win on the road!
Congrats on a share of first place! 2 straight on the road one more to go in bozeman.

 

[EverettGriz]

Survive! Sometimes that's all you can expect on the road.

Beat the kitties!!!!

 

[IdaGriz01]

A little too close for my liking, but will take a road W, anytime.

Amen!

Be interesting to watch the replay (get too caught up in the action to judge, sometimes) -- seems like a combination of PSU getting hot, but also seemed like the Griz just relaxed too much there for a stretch. Could have gone either way there at the end.

Note that the score line has Montana as "MU" rather than "UM". Illustrative of how little Altitude knows or cares about the Big Sky Conference.

The really really sad thing is they did the same thing for a Montana game last year, I think against EWU. I believe Fullerton was at that game, and sometime after half time they finally fixed it. this time apparently nobody from teh conference, school or network cared enough for them to get the name of the school right. Of course they also ran 3 advertisements for MSU and none for UM, so they may not even know what school was playing. I can't wait until Altitude is banned from showing anymore Montana games. They are the absolute worst.

UM Students need to remind the Altitude idiots which school they are broadcasting from when they come to Missoula.
