Sideline Lackeys: Who is the Griz comp in FBS

[rob.peterson]

Hey egriz. Ben and I had a fun back and forth on this topic. I chose Nebraska for what it’s worth, will be a topic of discussion for Offseason Tales pt 2. For now here is a link to our first episode of the offseason series, as always Go Griz and FTC!

Everyone saying Nebraska, do you know that Nebraska has had a losing season every year from 2017 until this one, when they finally finished at .500?

Recently, we're Notre Dame. Always in the hunt, sometimes very close, but never quite good enough to break through, and the best we've been able to manage in the last 15 years is 2nd place. They also were sanctioned by the NCAA for the 2012 and 2013 seasons and vacated all of their wins.

Fits like a glove lol

I also chose Notre Dame. Generally beats who they should, sometimes takes a dump against a cupcake, gets out played and out coached against the upper level.

I choose "other" because I think (albeit from very quick stat glancing) that......Texas is who the comp is. A dominant run in the mid 60's to early 70's, a national championship in early 2000's (2005), had a dip from 2014-2016/2017 and their record varies from solid to very good.

When they are in a position to add another national title or get in the conversation the last 5-7 years, they haven't been able to win the big game or have stumbled unexpectedly.

also a very solid comparison!
