2010 Big Sky team by team record break down

[Wildcat Ryan]

sigh Why does every Big Sky thread have to turn into a EWU and Montana smackdown

The exact same reason that last year at this time it was all about Weber/Montana. The year before that was EWU/MT too.

It all depends on whichever team steps up and challenges the previous year. You should know that as you were a part of it last year.

True I did say a few things, but I wasnt this bad.

and Higgins wont be a pick off machine

I dont know about that, from the way his statistics are going chances are he will be even more of a pickoff machine in 2010 then he was last year :

-2007: 9 Interceptions, 17 TD's

-2008: 13 Interceptions, 36 TD's

-2009: 20 Interceptions, 28 TD's

In 09 Higgins threw the ball less then he did in 08 and had less TD's and more INT's. Hopefully he has learned by now not to force the ball so much, however i do now realize why you guys didnt want to play us, what with a interception machine at the helm we probably would have beaten you guys

Exactly. I told you last year Weber's success had run its course. '08 was Weber's turn , '09 Was UM's turn.. 2010 belongs to.... Thats right.. Check that sig you silly b@stard.

Dosent bode well for SUU if the only way they can beat Weber is if Weber had a pick-off machine

On a serious note though I honestly think this will be Cam's best year, Last year Higgins was given the (whats the word Im looking for ) the right? to change the playcall at the line, In 2008 the play came from the sidline which is why he might have been more successful. Weber will be working on that big time during the offseason.

Eh, this is more like friendly ribbing. I've got a lot of respect for the Griz program and a good portion of their fans. Their statues are fair game though.

I get the distinct feeling that the PC thing has taken a lot of fun away from a lot of the youngins on these boards (Not you) because I've never been involved in ANY group of friends where we were not looking for EVERY opportunity to bust each others balls about. Hell, I hope that remains right on through the time I'm in an old folks home like Grizo.

I think it's just a problem with those from Utah. I mean, UTAH. Pretty self explanatory.

UM, MSU and NAU is what killed me. I honestly thought NAU would be more of a contender.

Also, I don't think anyone saw Montana losing 4 games this year.
