Official Griz vs UNC game day thread

But wins and losses are what matters, not how you do against the spread. I am sure there isn't a coach or player upset because they only won by 24.
Did I say it wasn’t a win? Did I say it wasn’t good? No …..only that they didn’t cover, thus are overrated by many fans that don’t know shit about football other than what Marty says on TV and have no real clue how to evaluate, press included. Just because people watch games doesn’t mean they know what is actually going on. I bet half on here couldn’t even explain why our lineman would have been illegally downfield that resulted in a called back TD. Or explain blocking for inside vs outside zone, or even what cover zero is. Most are tv watchers and don’t see what some other do

And my point, who fucking cares what those fans think. Why do you care? So much bullshit. How they do ATS is a big nothing burger unless you like to play the ponies...and if any of them know their shit, the won some bucks on that game. The entire point of the spread is to entice.
 
I guess I thought a starting QB would play the whole game not just in spots. Sorry for posting, I will just read from now on, it's safer.
Personally I think some people owe you an apologia but it will be over their dead body before you get one from them. Most of them don't like me cause I am a straight shooter with good aim.
 
Relax about who plays qb.
They used this game to get AhYat needed game time reps. Albeit, a vanilla game plan. It was smart of them to do that.

Why risk Fife in this match up? They're comfortable with him. He didn't need the reps as much as AhYat!

I'm expecting this against Poly too. Just maybe with an expanded playbook.
 
Quite a few. Sorry for posting. Safer to just read posts.
I hear you, just a fan asking a question and you get treated like a second class fan. I will probably get mocked for saying this.

In fact I was going the say we play a lot more inconsistent rotating quarterbacks.

I was relaxed...and then I posted on eGriz.
 
sure looks like they kept a fair amount of starters in both ways....
So, a couple things: Mellott was still playing up until the end of the 3rd quarter, as was Adam jones and a number of other starters.

Also, the ‘Scats played the SAME QB we did, yet there were ‘Scat fans on here mocking our performance against the “7th string QB”…(money, I’m looking at YOU, retard). Scats gave up 261 passing to this guy, plus 101 rushing. Griz limited them to 165 passing and just 63 rushing.

Finally, it was a ‘Scat HOME GAME, while we went on the road and shut them out, which no one has done this year.

So, final score aside, which should have and could have been 31-0, I’ll take THAT performance over the ‘Scat performance any day of the week.
 
Hypothetically yes, they could be overrated. As in people thought they were the GOAT but they were just the best that season and if they there truly were GOAT they thought they were would have won by a lot more each game. For example MSU could think they are the GOAT if they sweep undefeated (Scats always think they are special so they might claim GOAT) - they would not have won the last two championships minimum let alone against teams like the Marshall team with Randy Moss with their team thus they would have overrated them.

Overrating isn’t only Wins and Losses but where they rank in other aspects like ability to score or hold teams to lower scores, thus the spread was created


Maybe you confuse over rated vs over ranked

And “bad” is more in ranking not rating.

So, what you’re saying is, if Bobby had forced in that last TD you’d feel so much better about their performance because they “beat the spread”. But it would have been literally the EXACT SAME GAME with the exception of a TD scored on the last play.

So, what difference does it make? They root for the Griz just lik you and I. They buy tickets to the games. We have sat in front of the same couple for 20 years. To this day, she usually hasn’t a clue what is happening on the field.But she is as happy as the rest of us when the Griz score/win. IMO, that’s what counts.

They need to keep Fife sharp, he hadn't played in two weeks. Agree about next week, but think it will be different vs. Davis.

If you don’t think point different means something with weddings by selection committee you fooling yourself. Tune in Wednesday and see if wins/losses are all they care about. Also I have cashed in on the under this season just to let you know. I never will place a bet saying Griz will
Lose even if I expect they will but against covering you bet (pun intended) it do Also will bet on Cats when the line is good. Too many people bet with rose colored glasses on and drives the line so it can be at a spot it’s worth it and you if you have watched teams and truly can evaluate. Of course you lose sometimes to but by account at sports bet Montana looks pretty damn good

It doesn’t unless they spout off as if they know more about what is actually going on in a game/ season than they truly do to argue with someone that’s truly had a clue of Xs and Os . And especially if someone points out flaws based on years of actual experience they get called out by a couch potato for being negative

In fact I get a kick out of fans by my seats yelling outrageous things, but if they were to challenge what I have to say on a matter they better have some real knowledge to back up their side not just playing madden football experience

Our center being called downfield was questionable. He never lost engagement during the play.
