Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

nah', we usually do this on the egriz thought i'd run it by, cause Bobcat fans never give up. Even after getting spanked. for reals, i thought UNI was going to give Griz a run for it. Good Game.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

let's go through the usual excuse checklist:

[ ] - dominated all facits of the game and lost
[ ] - poor officiating costs us the game
[x] - grease on montana jerseys...cuz its not possible we can't tackle
[x] - out coached
[x] - out hustled
[x] - milwaukee at 1pm tomorrow...can't wait

Montana made us look terrible.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

Montana was a much better team in almost all phases of the game.

I still hope you get crushed by SMS or MSU though.

No excuses. Montana kicked our butts. Great game by the Griz.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

These aren't excuses, but:

1. Carlos Anderson can get rid of the ankle weights anytime now. The coaches can also schedule eye exams so they can realize earlier next time that he's too slow to be a threat against a Montana style defense.

2. Our players lack of focus in tackling can leave anytime too.

Give credit to Montana for controlling the line of scrimmage. Don't give credit to them for the above, that's all on UNI.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

What I learned this week...
- UNI is not as good at football as Montana
- I would never hire someone from the University of Montana. I can only understand half of what they say. The English is marginal at best and the definition of run-on and fragmented sentences was invented to describe their writing ability.

nah', we usually do this on the egriz thought i'd run it by, cause Bobcat fans never give up. Even after getting spanked. for reals, i thought UNI was going to give Griz a run for it. Good Game.

Hes a MVC 60m champion and part of an NCAA qualifying 4x100 relay. I don't think speed is his problem. I think he dances too much rather than trusting his first cut.

Two facts I know...

Montana has a good football team at home.

Montana fans are Philistines and maybe the most distasteful group of sports fans I've had the displeasure of interacting with.

I'll take these Griz fans over the UD fans from a few years ago...

No excuses but so uncool to start this thread. Congratulations, enjoy the win, but be a gracious winner.

This, and he also needs to put on 15 pounds of muscle.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

This sh!t has to stop. The goal of Montana fans should be to get other people to like our team. Of course, I'm not saying you should stop liking the Panthers. But for me personally, I like it when other teams fans find out about Montana and want to watch and route for them later. With stupid threads and post like I have seen on Panthernation, Griz fans are hurting the Grizzlies' reputation. Knock it off. These are good people, with a consistently good program, and they should be respected.

Congrats Panthernation on a very good season. At least 90 teams would like to have had your season this year.

Re: Griz vs Panthers Official excuse Thread...

No excuses. The better team won. Congrats to the Griz.

The thing I noticed this time, that I didn't 10 years ago was the fans. They are impressive. They stayed for the entire game, even with a blow out. They actively participated throughout. To say that I am jealous of what they have is an understatement.

Agreed he's fast. However, it seemed like he had the burst to pop through a hole in the past. Didn't see that tonight, and didn't see it against Iowa State either. There's a difference between quickness/vision and speed.
