GoldenEagle said:There is a reason why the griz have not run much zone read or allowed their quarterback to run much. He is beat up from getting whacked a lot and is prone to injury. He is still hobbled by a high ankle sprain. You are correct, simply keep him in the pocket and he will once again force throws into coverage. If for some reason they try more zone read, then have Tevin McDonald spy him and totally shut him down.clawman said:Containment containment containment. If we contain JJ from scrambling and slow down the run they can not pass well enough to score enough to beat us. JJ throws quite a few errant balls to open receivers.

I really hope we buck this trend we've had the past few years of coming out totally flat after a bye week. But yeah, big picture the bye is definitely more advantageous in terms of getting guys healthy. I really, really hope Forte and Moore are healthy after not playing for a month. It'd be great to go into this game with 4 or 5 healthy RB's.

Except JJ has ran more the last 3 games tan ever before this year. We were a pure one back team til after ewu. It will be a differ ent look for ewu. Maybe not different result but diff look

So far this year it hasn't been a problem; we scored 52 on MSU and 56 on PSU after bye weeks. We might as well keep that trend going; gonna hang 50+ on the Griz.
But, if you peek at Ejizz after the game our success will be solely the result of horrible officiating.
Similarly as I was watching the civil war I was thinking how are we going to keep up with the Ducks even without Marriotta. But wait we have a National Championship to focus on first :thumb: . :thumb:EWURanger said:Speaking of passing, I'm sitting here watching the Apple Cup and trying to figure out how we were able to put up 52 points on Washington and Wazzu has yet to put up a single point well into the 3rd Qtr. Nadda. Zip. Nothing.

I agree that VA may be running a lot more...he's not coming off a month of not playing like he was in the first contest. So you probably got that part right.
Montana has won four games against DI opponents in that last three years. Two of those wins have come in the past two weeks against an MSU team missing their best two offensive players and a non-scholarship FCS team. Not sure I'd really be puffing my chest up about that if I were you.

Put down the meth pipe Ranger. "Montana has won 4 games against D1 opponents in the last 3 years". We had 9 wins over D1 opponents last season alone (unless the BSC is no longer considered to be D1). How in the hell did we make the playoffs the this year and last with only 3 D1 wins (considering our 4th win in 3 years, according to you, came in a playoff game against non-scholarship USD)? :silly:
