Blame goes from top down. One of the worst, if not THE worst, games I've seen the Griz played in. Souers outcoached Stitt & co. I don't know what Stitt & staff thought entering this game, but Souers pretty well had them figured out. By end of 1st half, I was hoping Stitt would jerk BG & put in Chalich. Hell, Chalich couldn't do any worse! Unfortunately, Stitt didn't have the excuse of an injury to BG to do that, like he had in the Liberty game, last year.

Jerome Souers is a knowledgeable, journeyman DI football coach. Stitt was a knowledgeable, journeyman DII football coach. He's obviously still in transition. Hard to blame any players in that game. Most of Griz Nation understands that when BG gets flustered, that's pretty much the game for him. Unfortunately, that part of Griz Nation that hasn't figured it out happens to be ... the Coach.Grizzoola said:

Not even close? Our offense had a QB throwing half his passes 10 feet over the heads of wide open receivers and we still put up 550. Your defense was just as terrible as ours was. Worse even.NAUJacksFan said:

Sure BG overthrew passes - but he has done that last year and this year.
The one area that had me worried about NAU but doesn't about any other team is the Griz D line vs the O line
NAU is disciplined on their O line and is strong. The other teams are not (including EWU - thus the need for a running QB).
Every game this year the D line was able to rush the QB and/or sack the QB so that the QB starts hurrying his passes which in turn makes the secondary look great.
Did not happen at the NAU game once...secondary became stale because of this.
That is where the failure was for this game.

It could be that NAU is shaking off its doldrums with this win over UM. After all, it was a preseason pick to head the conference. Other teams (UNC?) know UM can be defeated, after the NAU loss. In the Hauck years, NAU was just a stepping stone to the BSC championship.
Something I've never understood: Why, w/ his system, did Pflu recruit Brady, when Brady is clearly a pocket passer? And, why Stitt continues to start him, when, if I'm not mistaken, Stitt's system is not a pro-style system? Brady is a pro-style QB. Pflu's and Stitt's systems are not pro-style. What am I missing?
