Some interesting reading over on Egriz.com. Apparently beating mediocre App State and UND and drubbing a DII means they will run the gauntlet in the Big Sky this season. Can't wait till their delusional fans get brought back to reality on their own field. :thumb:

Well, shucks. I guess we'll never know. There is no quality team that the Griz will play this year in the BSC. The Griz ARE the quality team.

It's a factor in what makes it so entertaining. Very colloquial expressions of the same themes over and over:

1. Their stadium is the best (and cold and loud)
2. Their (insert team, coach QB, fans) are the most classy and see bullet #1
3. They are the premier program in the FCS and see bullet #1
4. UM is the Harvard of the west and no other BSC school compares (hence the 3 year campaign to keep EWU out) and see bullet #1
5. Montana produces the best football players in the nation and see bullet #1
6. No other state compares favorably to Montana (even if they have never traveled outside its border to have a basis of comparison) and see bullet #1
7. UM should move up because they are better than all this or UM shouldn't move up because there is no playoff and see bullet #1
Add your own here.... AND SEE BULLET #1. :lol:

The griz reality check begins in Flagstaff on Saturday. First real defense they will see this year. There is a price to pay for playing a weak early schedule. When their running game fails, their weak passing game will be exposed.
 
The very fact that you have a thread going just about EGRIZ shows how strong the GRIZENVY is in your pathetic program...your starting to sound like Bobcats begging to be relevant...Kill yourselves!!!

Woooow. Some parents need to keep their kids off the internet.
 
Whenever a griz fan talks about the greatness of their program, just substitute "stadium" for "program" and it will start to make sense.
 
I understand why some griz fans are frequenting The Red Zone. Even they can't tolerate the crap being spewed on egriz anymore. Griz fans are having difficulty coming to terms that their team is only average. As HannahO and FormerEag say above, their only comeback is "our stadium is bigger". Simply weak.
 
:lol: It always kills me that every time someone points out something negative (usually truthful) about the Montana program, it's automatically labeled "Griz envy" by so many of their fans. Griz fans are just like Gonzaga fans. A bunch of middle to late age white men that probably never played football beyond their 8 man high school teams, if that. Who probably didn't jump on the bandwagon until the mid 90s after the first of two National Championships.

When a team has nothing to argue beyond except it's history, then that's the sign of a desperate fan base. It's been 12 years since they won their last National Championship, 4 years since their last Big Sky Championship, missed the playoffs 2 of the last 3 years, had a losing record last year, and can't seem to keep their players out of jail for longer than a few months at a time.

The fact that so many Griz fans have moved over here to this board, just proves that EWU is far more worrisome for them than they'll ever admit. As I said over on their board, I'll wait for the PLAYERS to determine who the best team is on October 26th. But I can guarantee our players will not be intimidated by their stadium, history, or their QB who they've proclaimed to be Jesus.
 
We can talk about the Griz the week of October 26, we have a much bigger game on our hands this week!

Both the Griz and EWU have big tests this week.

Compared to your fan base who jumped on the bandwagon all of 4 years ago, most of the people in Washington are just now realizing you have a college in Cheney...A couple more decades of fans jumping on the bandwagon the is Beagle football and you might generate enough revenue to get out of a high school stadium. Oh and if your program was dominant for the last 3 decades, EWU fans might actually have a history to talk about.
