Cats and Bears

the Cats are coming to Greeley next Saturday, I think we all know what the rankings and stats may say but am sure you remember the game in '07 as we do. I think of this as a trap game but expect our players to maintain focus.

I know that your new coach is trying to change the culture of your team and that is always painful, (Ash was doing that in 2007) I also have lurked here enough to know that some of what he has done has not been popular.

I noticed that you hung with EWU for a while yesterday, so what are the good points of your team right now? It looks like somethings are starting to work. What are your expectations as fans for this week? We have quite a few Cat fans in the Denver area and many will attend the game. Hoping for a clean game and no injuries and that the Cats go home with a win.

We know you're good, no need to rub it in like that.

Quite frankly, you guys should be embarrassed if you don't hang 50 or 60 on us.

Yeah, this will not be pretty.

I'm not rubbing anything in, I could think of a lot of things to say if I was trying to take that attitude but that is not what I am trying to do. this was just a new video that was released today and thought you might like to see it.

I really dont care how much we win by as long as it is a win and I don't want any injuries. If you know anything about Coach Ash he is a classy guy, we usually play out the first half full out, then in the second half if we get a 3 possession lead we will take the air out of the ball and run the clock, in the 4th quarter he will rotate players if we have large lead. I would doubt that we win by more than 30, and it wouldn't surprise me if the margin is closer to 20.
 
It should be a good test for the young defense. McGhee is one of the best QB's in the league. Good wide receivers too.
 
I realize that you guys are down but history shows that you guys have always played us tough since joining the Big Sky

somebody posted this on BN

2006: MSU 13-10 at home
2007: UNC 16-13 at UNC
2008: MSU 20-7 at home, but they were driving for the go-ahead TD late in the game before Retoriano came up with a "Pick 6"
2009: MSU 25-7 at UNC
2010: MSU 37-35 at home

Its the same for UNC/Weber, there are just certain teams the Bears just match up well with

2011: 45-21 WSU win- Greeley
2010: 50-47 (4OT) WSU win- Ogden
2009: 28-20 WSU win- Greeley
2008: 17-10 WSU win- Ogden
2007: 23-0 WSU win- Greeley
2006: 26-21 WSU win- Ogden

It is usually close, but you have your best team in recent memory and we've got our worst team in recent memory. :twocents:
 
Hope you're all correct. We could use a breather and get everyone healthy the next two weeks for the stretch run @ Weber and then Home for Cat/Griz.
 
Ought Six, just remember, there is free beer at the game this week.

Bares always play better on free beer.
 
Okay, my prediction: UNC 20 - Montana State 34

Another performance where UNC is down 31-3 but comes back against 2nd and 3rd stringers.
 
I predict Montana by 38 unless we have done some major improvment this week in practice. Too bad they don't use a running clock like they do in some HS games that get out of hand. No one likes to sit through a lopsided game, players, coaches or fans.
 
I know the game is in Greeley but I just noticed that Montana State added some killer endzone seats to their stadium. It looks fantastic:

Makes you wish schools like ours had as large and dedicated fanbases and great tradition doesnt it?
