1. This will be a game to remember
2. If I can't weasel out of work to watch it, someone will die.

I was seriously thinking I would go to this last night, but I was also seriously drinking at the time.

I did check airfares this morning, but given my vacation time (or lack thereof) I don't think I'll make it. Should be an epic game in a great setting - maybe I'll make the home and home coming up over the next few years.
Whenever anybody hears TV schedules post it up.

I thought it was pretty funny, actually. Reminds of this behemoth that got hit near Helena.

Man, I wish I could come up there and take in the legendary WaGriz hospitality and atmosphere. Plan on being there when we play in a few years, but not this one. Looking forward to a great game (and some much desired revenge).

I hope ESPN is setting up lights because it'll be getting dark by the 4th quarter

What? How the hell this drop down to the second page. Too much of a love fest on the other threads for this one to get any action I suppose.
For the App fans: Can someone list your starting players so I can get some idea of how big everyone is?
I swore Montana was a whole helmet taller across the field against Wofford, and we all know how that turned out.

It's actually on ESPN, not ESPN2. Small detail. Just sayin. Carry on.

Here's a sortable roster from goasu.com. We only have one guy listed at 300 lbs. and most of our D line is around 6' - 6'3" - I suspect you guys will be much bigger than us even visually on the field. I can only hope we make up for the size with speed.

I did go to that site last night and farted around a little. You are right, I think you will see a visible height and size difference out there this Saturday. Funny you worry about the size. As stated above, I worry about the speed like with Wofford, although our rushing game seems stronger this year than it was for Wofford.
Maybe I am wrong, and they just keyed on our running back, Lex Hilliard at the time. Always hard for me to watch games online and only catch a few live and be able to speak about our team with any sort of real insight. Would also help if I knew the X's on O's a little better.
Here is the link to our roster:

App has to start fast and not turn the ball over. I think our defense can hold its own. 3rd down conversions on both sides of the ball will be huge for us. My gut feeling is AE has a huge game both on the ground and in the air.

Your humility won't work this time, Darth Grizo.
