Montana @ North Dakota

[Brock Landers]

I think the Griz fans are being a bit harsh on the coaching staff. Griz came into the game a bit ill prepared, yes. However, adjustments needed to be made at the half and the product that came out in the second half was brilliant and gave the team a chance to win the game. The coaches gave the team a chance to win, but it is up to the players to get it done. The players need to accept responsibility for this as the coaches did their job.

I haven't thrown anyone under buses, it's not my style. But if PSU had a new coaching staff that matched their worst W/L in 25+ years with 3 games still left to play, their fans would start lashing out too

Well I guess it's time to go into Cat fan mode

There are 2 things to look forward to for me:

1) The Griz travel to Ogden so it is a short drive for me to watch a game live for a change.
2) We could beat the Bobcats and mess up their season a little bit.

Just got back to Fargo, my voice hurts like hell. As for the game itself Montana should have won it. UND played horrible in the third quarter and Montana's recievers dropped passes one of them would've been a TD. Our defense continues to suck. If UM would have stopped Hanson we would've been destroyed. As for the fans, I was sitting next to a couple Grizzlies fan and in front of us were Montana fans from Sidney. They were the nicest people. 100% class act all the way. They cheered, they brought the cowbell, it was nice to have a conversation with them the whole game. They drank a lot of beer to keep the Grand Forks economy going. They said we had a nice building and the game was great that it came down to the end. A guy said if they would have had their star RB he would have made some big plays up the middle (I believe it!). Great people, and they said its too bad us two teams couldn't play every year. I told him UND's "rival games" were Montana State and Northern Colorado, but UM will be in Grand Forks the next two years (2013 is a non-conference game to make up the end of the home and home from 2010) and then conference play resumes in 2014. Great game, I really thought OT was coming. I could have killed Mussman when UND had 3 time outs and 1:30 left in the first half and he pissed it away by running the clock out. I told my dad 14 points against our defense is not a safe lead. Hanson and Hardin...UND's version of Montana to Rice, awesome connection. 660 yards for Hanson and 330 for Hardin...holy crap!!! If only our defense was strong. Oh for you NDSU fans...there was a guy among the Montana fans about 5 or 6 sections over wearing a Bison shirt...guess who he was cheering for. I hope our offense shows up against MSU, just leave the crappy defense at home.

UND coaches did what they should have done, pick on the weakest part of Montana's D...the safety play. All day long our safeties played like sh!t...out of position, not looking for the ball. Frustrating to watch. Serious number put up by your QB....good win and a few Montana players need to look in the mirror after this one.

We did, his name was Jerry Glannville who took the championship caliber team Walsh had left him and proceeded to go in the wrong direction.

The Griz should have had a former Bobcat coach give them a pep talk before they played North Dakota. It worked for them when they played Northern Colorado....

Ok, I'll bite. Disappointing as it is....

The best team in FCS?

And if the dog hadn't stopped to pee, he'd have caught the rabbit.

No shit. Never thought I'd see the day when a Griz defense gave up a conference record for yardage.
