Round 2: #12 Montana @ #4 Eastern Washington Game Thread

[grizchamp]

I'm ready for Bobby Hauck to take over this team next year.

I'm ready for just about anyone else to take over this program. It could be mr. Coach Cline. Delaney is a terrible excuse for a head coach

 

[Eriul]

we are winning on offense and defense but we are losing the turnover battle and that's gonna cost us.

Winning on offense would mean we'd be ahead. We're not

we are definitely winning on offense. We have had better drives than them and more yardage on offense.

But I guess that went over your head.

Is the offense still winning?

Wow you really are comparing what I said the game was like in the 1st quarter to now?

Jesus the people on this board can be so stupid sometimes

 

[hm.grwn.grizfan]

If I only had confidence in this defense, I'd say we could still pull this thing out. Sadly, this defense has been showed up by eastern at the times its mattered most. Hope they do something crazy and get a huge 3 n out, just don't expect it

You're not saying the defense lost this game are you?

No, just that they haven't shown the capacity to "win" the game....... And with that last run by VA, is it really disputable? Scored right before the half, and now, with the game on the line, they can't get a stop. Not trying to be a pessimist, it's just my opinion that they cannot put the game on their shoulders at times like this when it matters most

Their opponent averages 44 points a game. 10 of the 30 they've given up have come from turnovers inside our OWN 10 yard line. And STILL they're 14 points below their season average. Just ONCE I'd like to see the offense give the defense a break. The only time that happened this year was against the bobcats.

I don't disagree....just stating my opinion that I didn't think they were capable of getting the 3 n out they needed in order to have a shot at the win.....and, well, they didn't get the stop in all likelihood eastern scores here and wins going away

Can we please quit arguing about the officials and just appreciate 2 teams competing? Officiating is part of the game, rather it be good, bad, or indifferent. It is the job of the teams to not make officials be part of the game. They do it by taking care of business. EWU has taken care of business better so far.

It is even worse when fans make it such a big deal and use it as excuses. Then add in opposing fans being cocky, arrogant, and idiotic about it, adds fuel to the fire. Seriously, both sides are like EWU's field, UGLY!!!

Dude officiating is ugly every game. It changes so many games. It may not change the outcome but it DEFINITELY changes the game.

I mean... go back to EWUS championship against NDSU when the officials GAVE EWU the win. That was a case of the officials changing the outcome of a game. This whole game is SO different if there wasn't such horrible officiating. We probably would still lose but holy f*** it's hard to watch

It is the job of officials to make the right calls, and to minimize bad calls. These refs deserve significant criticism for some important blown calls this half.

EWU makes plays when they have to.

I hate VA but he's just damn good EWUs coaches are 100% better only coach that should keep his job is Gregorak and Green everyone else needs to fucking go Team that up with getting every call in the book and they're unbeatable Please God give us Hauck so EWU can go back to being our bitches This last 5 years is a prime example of what one very good coach can do for a program...congrats to Baldwin guys a stud can't wait to see him leave to the FBS after this season and like I said we can only hope we get Hauck to return to dominance

Game, set, match. ESG. ESAG1. ESAG1BC.

This is why you don't do meth kids, not only does it stunt your vocabulary skills, you will end up acquiring a fetish for the consumption of fecal deposits.

These refs have been pretty good and the announcers as well...EWU is a better team at home against the Griz. This is their rivalry game like MSU is for UM....The big difference between programs is the difference in expectations. UM fans expect to advance. EWU expects to beat UM...But, UM has not been the force they were for a couple years. Hopefully, a Hauck coached team will be able to meet the expectations of UM fans.

I will be firmly rooting for Illinois State next weekend. FTE
I don't give a shit about "representing the conference". I'd rather the Bobcats represent the conference than these pieces of shit. Hopefully Baldwin chases the $$ and heads to OSU or some other FBS school with an opening.

Enjoy your off-season, little brother.

It's stunted more than that, have you seen the oompa loompa?

+1 As fans we have a lot to look forward to next year. I imagine a good coach could get us back in good shape pretty quick

Saw Bobby at the Winner's Circle years ago - all he could say was "Go Griz". Had the personality of a grapefruit! Still, he did win!

Not to burst your bubble there but who the hell are you? Quit lecturing Holder/Obama/Sharpton!

Are you even old enough to vote? You sound like a nut job

 

[jodcon]

Interesting decision not to go up 2 TD's there.

 

[24GRIZ]

Wow JJ. Just wow.

Not as much as you and Greenacres!

 

[PlayerRep]

Oops. EWU made more plays than the Griz. Congrats to EWU. Nice season Griz. Thought we'd do better today.

 

[Obzerver]

Well Alpha is convinced game is over and is spotted peddling out of the parking lot heading back to Fargo. Has to stop at mini-mart for more Red Bull and hay. A long ride back to make it for the Bizon's Sat. game but he'll make it yelling VA's a pussy all of the way.

*All the Griz fans still in the stands supporting their team.
