Big game for both teams. Pretty much decides Cal Polys playoff fate and could give the Griz much needed credibility to their so far weak schedule. A game that will show how good each team is so far. Advantage Griz for at home and that ridiculous weather.

NAU is not quite tough, though a good game. UC Davis is ok.

An amazing example of how defense wins football games...

The Griz had 5 TURNOVERS..!!!

5

and still managed to control the game in the 4th quarter and win... (amazing)
- Big 10 Football - So boring Wisconsin is our most exciting team...
- Big 10 Football - Where 117th ranked Purdue is dominant...
- Big 10 Football - Where team speed and passing offense are not required...

Of all the Griz games I've seen, the 1st Quarter, and a big part of the 2nd were the absolute worst I've ever seen them play!

But we did get the job done against a very tough Cal Poly team...no matter how ugly parts of the game were.

FWIW, and for those that care...it was also the coldest that I've ever been at a Griz game, including the night, home playoff games.

Also wanted to point out, that after looking at the stats, it is amazing how similar it looks like the teams played on paper. Only difference was passing.

...............................CP.......UM
Total offense plays.........67........65
NET YARDS RUSHING.....164.........175
Rushing Attempts.......47............38
Yards Gained Rushing...177..........178
Even Punting was similar. :p

TURNOVERS in this game was out of the ordinary for the Griz from last year, and could be the turning point that keeps other teams on our rear ends the whole game!

Cal Poly's QB apparently caught a helmet to the thigh and was/isn't 100% for the second half. Their coach was saying how hard it is to run a triple option with one option taken away.

And when you've got a QB who obviously can't pass well (so that option is gone), and now he can't run, that pretty much limits your options.
