We got smoked by a team that played Alabama in the semi-finals last year. Savannah St. is gonna get smoked by the Griz next week. We didn't play great, but that has more to do with Udub being dominant and over-powering than with the Griz not being close in the game. Udub had to win big against an FCS school. We were supposed to lose. Get rolled! Pummeled! It was their home opener and they hadn't played great against Rutgers the week before. They're wanting to get back to where they were last year. They're gonna beat up on the rest of the PAC-12 and play USC for a chance to make it back to the final four. The Griz will grow from this game. To use this game as a barometer for their season is ridiculous, and not very realistic! The season will begin vs EWU, and the goals remain the same. We'll be competitive in the BSC and this loss will motivate the players even more.
Go Griz!
Of course they were gonna "win big." I thought the defense held up fairly well, that is until they realized they would be receiving exactly zero help from their Offense, which had to have been deflating. It slays me that there is a thread about the defense but none addressing the anemic offensive output. Unreal.
Yeah. Why can't this offense tackle on interception returns?? Where are the coaches on this?? (sarcasm)
If the DBs are going to cover so well, why can't they also chase down a Heisman trophy candidate??
(sarcasm)
If we are going to run up the middle with two different backs,for three out of four 4th downs against one of the biggest, toughest D-lines in the FBS why haven't we seen any fly sweeps? (sarcasm)
I tell you, the season is done if this team can't cover a 43 point spread. (sarcasm)
Please note the sarcasm in this post.
