So where is this talk about moving up?
With another 20 scholarships we might have been more competitive.

This… Not to mention that we would likely attract higher caliber players as an FBS team

Trying to come up with any thing redeemable about this game...oh yeah the money.

You guys dominated in Kickoff Return Yardage.

Rank sixth in the BSC didn't expect too much, the pick six after a deflection was awesome.

I am sadden that some are saying we didn't go to compete, we went for the 600k, I have been around the program for a while now, and I always though the Griz not only play to compete, but to win.
 
Next up savannah st got drilled by app st today. App a very decent team

We will get a tougher test I am thinking next Saturday afternoon than last years Miss Valley blowout.

He we got out of the dog pound without any serious injuries and that check gets cashed immediately

Couple of observations;
1. Coach Stitt's system is in no way "offensive genius" 130 odd yards is crap. You should never throw a pass behind the line of scrimmage against a team with superior speed. That is "A level " dunce stuff. He got hired on his ability to take what the d gives you, try that sometime. Doesn't even run his signature play with the Griz (jet sweep). In three years have not seen a single offensive adjustment against a quality team, figuring out Mississippi Valley State is like figuring out Jessica Simpson strategy for North Korea, doesn't count.

2. Having a bunch of converted TE's get fat doesn't make for a good offensive line. I'm glad they all have guts hanging over their pants, give me five mattresses and stand them up on end. I'd take 5 275 guys with a wee bit of fire, who got beaten by their Dad's and have issues.

3. I'd take Coach Delaney's old school Fullback lead and play-action system in a heart beat over the garbage that was meant to represent my alma mater today. What happened to 90 plays a game? I knew as soon as he started punting on 4th and short half way through his first season that he didn't believe his own press.

These young men work too hard and sacrifice too much to get this type of treatment. They went up against a top ten fbs program today. Stop acting like a douche.

I don't think I was acting like a douche. I'm a U of M graduate and a guy who drives 620 miles one way to watch them play (which only means I feel invested in our team). Our O-line does have two players who were recruited as TE's and have put on 50/70 odd pounds to fill the gaps in the O-line. Do we have guys firing off the line and pancaking d-line men? I don't see it. Did you see the rushing stats today? We had more carries than yards, is that being too hard on the student/athletes? That's a fact. Did they dominate against non-scholarship Valparisso last week?

Can't respond, I don't see a question here. What universe? Please restate something more specific.

How about this: You're an ass, particularly for paragraph #2.

I hate money games. For the most part the Griz can make more money by having a home game against anybody.

IF they never played up again, it'd be fine by me.

Hahhhhhaaaa. The ONLY person who said that is an anonymous poster on a message board. The Groiz went to compete and competed hard. If you get saddened by what is said on Egriz, OR believe that was is said on here is somehow what the team says, you need professional help. The Griz competed as hard as they could tonight.

5 sacks for 33 yards. Calhoun & Lee actually looked very good. All the Husky fans around me were very impressed with our running game. Did you REALLY expect them to pancake UW linemen?

Really? You don't think summarizing all the work these men have put into converting to the offensive line as "getting fat" is acting like a douche?!

Your not going to see many people at any level, fire off the line and pancake 350 pound Vita Vea.

I know I've conveyed this general thought a few different ways, but I want to state it clearly:

The Griz did not play Texas Tech, Nevada, Fresno, Colorado, or Cal tonight. They played #7. I don't think enough people are appreciating the difference between #7 in the FBS and #40-60 in the FBS. #7 is much better at maximizing your mistakes and minimizing theirs. Sounds obvious; obviously isn't.

Earlier I posted that I expected a loss, but was embarrassed by what I was seeing on the field. Now that I've relaxed from the stress I get while watching the Griz, I have to say that I overreacted earlier. I agree with CDA on this one. There were a few good things to take from this game, so let's be thankful there were no major injuries tonight and move on to next week.
I look forward to EWU in 2 weeks (obviously the team is focusing on Savannah St., but I'm just a fan...)

This times 1,000. I talked to a very famous former Griz coach earlier this week. He said playing THIS Washington team is absolutely no different than if the Griz were playing Bama, Clemson, Florida State or USC THIS SEASON. HIS EXACT WORDS. He said that's the level of talent Montana was going to play in Seattle. He didn't need to tell me that. I already knew how great the Huskies are. BUT, hearing him say it, put it in even more persepective as to what the Griz were up against. This game was so far removed from the time the Griz beat a horrible Oregon State team in 1994, it's laughable.

Does that make up for some of the miscues and mistakes Montana made tonight, or, their obvious flaws going forward? No. But this game was unchartered territory for ANY Griz team. No Montana team in the modern era of the FBS has ever played in a playup game like tonight's was.

Do you want a medal for how far you drive? Or do you think you are big enough to push the pile against a very good Huskies team. Would be awesome if the team knew they just needed to have you on the team. I blame the loss on you.
