You've never been to WGS. Yet somehow you know for a FACT it doesn't get as loud as Rice Eccles or Lavell Edwards Stadium.

We haven't had recent success with other "power" conferences honoring home and homes. Perhaps if mountain honor is higher than southern honor we'd consider it.

I didn't think I needed to bring you into this post because you are so far above all the other Hen posters it is not even funny. And the only way 89Hen goes is down...as in down the shitter, one of those Chinese models.

It may be hard to believe but I assumed the same thing and that UM fans were sods. I didn't believe it either, made my first (hopefully last - lol) trip to WA-Griz Stadium this past season.

WA-Griz will shock you when you go, its louder than Utah and BYU's stadiums. I've been to both on a number of occasions at full capacity. Griz may only have 25,000 but the reason why is its completely enclosed which BYU and Utah are not. And believe it or not the fans at WA-Griz are much louder.

It was equivalent to the Aggie Spectrum (Utah State bball arena) except that loud the whole game and outside. I give props to the Griz fans. It was a proud moment to see, I kept saying I can't believe this is Big Sky/FCS football. I'm not saying I loved the fans or they were nice to me, then again we were next to the students.

Every single down we had the ball the entire stadium was deafening. No exaggeration - every play. Our players claimed it didn't affect them but I've been to too many games in the Spectrum to know it does affect the game completely.

At least they will be a little more prepared for the game on Halloween.


So my question for the Griz is was that a normal game or were the fans extra loud given the do-or-die NCAA playoffs?

Grizza, 89 does appear to be very good when it comes to pushing your buttons. It might be better for you blood pressure to just ignore him.

And I have to give him props, when I took my son to DC last fall he (and others) was extremely helpful in providing insights into the best sites to see. I owe him a beer when we meet.

Are these regular season games only or are playoff games factored into the average? The SoS's are probably inflated for App. and the CAA for the playoff games they were in. No way is App's schedule that much tougher than GSU's.

Just like any other game, except Griz/Bobcat, that one tends to be a little different than all the others. And I guess when we play a DII it will usually lack in the second half.

Nah, my blood pressure is always really low. He is just a royal douchebag. Nothing else to say. He isn't funny, or insightful in anyway. He can have his CAA and shove it right up his ass. I am sure he jerks off every night to a pic of the CAA conference. Probably spends his free time trying to recruit other teams to join the CAA.

He does that intentionally just to get you (and others) riled up. He enjoys getting under the skin of those that respond to his barbs and he's pretty good at it. It's just smack and it isn't worth getting that worked up over.

It's like that for most games but there are usually a couple of clunkers in the season where it isn't like that as Grizza said. There is a little extra for a Griz/Cat game and it is at least equal if not slightly more than a playoff game due to the passion involved in that game. I can appreciate it when someone has tasted both flavors and then gives an opinion to what is better even if it's not what I had hoped it would be. I appreciate the flattering words and wish we would have met when you were here.
