Not sure if he'll play yet, but he is out of his boot and running. That is a good sign. Besides, Danimal may not need to cut if he can still run over the defense.
"Delaney said running back Dan Moore, out with a high ankle sprain since the Eastern Washington game on Sept. 29, “ran around a little bit” at Tuesday’s practice"

For those interested in stats.
Conference Only Stats:
Scoring Offense: MSU (39.6) um (35)
Scoring Defense: MSU (22.6) um (29.3)
Total Offense: MSU (453.6) um (467.1)
Total Defense: MSU (296.3) um (406.3) [yikes :shock: ]
Rushing Offense: MSU (192.3) um (247.6)
Rushing Defense: MSU (96.3) um (96.0) - wow, big difference there ...
Pass Offense: MSU (261.3) um (219.6)
Pass Defense: MSU (200.0) (#1) um (310.3) (dead last) -- damn, I wish our secondary didn't suck so much :shock:
Pass Efficiency: MSU (157.3) um (133.5)
Pass Defense Efficiency: MSU (105.4) (#1) um (133.5)
Sacks: MSU (28) um (31) - for all the talk of your great d-line, there really isn't a difference there, your D just happens to be on the field more.
3rd Down Conversions: MSU (51.5%) um (39.8%)
Opponent 3rd Down Conversions: MSU (28.3%) um (41.1%)
Turnover margin: MSU (+5) um (+1)
The stats certainly are looking very good for the Cats. No one is afraid of coming into wa-griz anymore, numerous teams have proven that this year. What these stats suggest is that the Cats will be able to both pass and run and put up lots of points. Griz may be able to run, even somewhat effectively, but PSU did the same thing - how did that turn out for them? Griz can't defend the pass and McGhee will work his usual magic.
Cats by 2 scores at least.

Well, you guys were killing us in the stats before last year's game, too.
I'll go ahead and say this: the cats won't run all over us. Their o-line has improved, but it's still not good enough to beat our rush D.
McGhee will win or lose the game for them. If he struggles, I doubt the cats will walk out of Wa Griz a winner, but if he can sit there and pick us apart, they've got a great shot.
We're gonna make mistakes either way, so it'll really come down to how well the cats play. McGhee has looked awesome lately (with the exception of the sac state game), but if antsy, force-a-play, interception machine McGhee shows up, I like our chances.
I'll homer it up and say Griz win 27-24, but I'm not confident in that pick at all.
We've blown them out so many times, it's surprising that they finally have a good chance to blow us out if we really shit the bed.
But we've had the extra week to steal all your play signals. :lol: :roll:

msuhunter, smack talk and otherwise you are a complete douche! You obviously have Griz envy and like a little kid you grab the worst bullsh*t you can scrounge up to make your ignorant point! Grow the f*ck up!!
Back to football, the Griz are going to have a very difficult task in beating a very good MSU team but I like our chances on our home field and playing for pride after a very tough season.

I think the griz match up with the cats very well. Honestly if the Bobcats had an offensive line that wasn’t a bunch of scrawny pimple faced kids they would be a force. Even if their o-coordinator accepted this fact they would be good but they still insist on running the ball at teams. It will not work against the griz. Cody Kirk is a tough runner and if he had an o-line that was even average he would put up ungodly numbers. I fully expect the griz to win this one especially if the weather is windy enough to affect the passing game.

just out of curiousity have you seen a game yet this season where the cats were unable to run the ball and we just insisted on trying? we are still averaging nearly 200 yards a game on the ground. aside from eastern and davis who shut down the rush pretty good we have managed to run on anyone. but even in those games i didn't get the feeling that we just simply insisted on rushing. we still mixed it up and simply didn't abandon the run.
now, this is not to suggest we'll run the ball all over the griz. they have maybe the best line we'll have faced. i'm just pointing out that i haven't seen a game yet this season where we were unable to run the ball successfully but still insisted on trying. no offense is every going to just stop running the ball....even against a good defensive line.

and again i didn't say that couldn't happen. just curious why you think our coordinator has been stubborn and insisted on running the ball. just haven't seen that this year.
i haven't seen anyone dispute the fact that your d-line is considered the favorite against our o-line....
:? :?
