Where is the discussion about UND - Montana?

[marenlee]

So much for that anticipated UND/NDSU playoff matchup.

[darell1976]

I think you need to give some credit to Montana instead of just moaning about your poor defense. You were warned that JJ is probably the best QB you'll see this year. And you dismissed UMs RBs because they weren't all-American caliber. Well guess what. My grandmother could run behind the Griz OL, and the RBs are pretty adequate, I'd say.xnodx

After last week giving up almost 300yds rushing now UM throwing and running all over us, and Mussman's excuses plus 7 home games if he don't make the playoffs he should be canned.

[Grizalltheway]

Ok so now no smack in this question seriously. Is Montana this good or is UND just that bad?

Well they took the #2 team in the MVFC to the wire, so is the MVFC really this bad?

[darell1976]

So much for that anticipated UND/NDSU playoff matchup.

Nope.

[Twentysix]

Well they took the #2 team in the MVFC to the wire, so is the MVFC really this bad?

UNI is the #2 team in the MVFC. SDSU is #3.

Also, that game went exactly like this one. It was 21-7 at half SDSU up. UND surged at the very end of the game to get within 1 TD.

[Grizalltheway]

UNI is the #2 team in the MVFC. SDSU is #3.

My mistake, but you get the ideal. :D

[BisonBacker]

Well they took the #2 team in the MVFC to the wire, so is the MVFC really this bad?

LOL you guys just keep winning and we will see you in Fargo for a real football game smart guy!!

[BisonBacker]

I couldn't either, then I remembered I didn't have the octo plugin thing.
Where did you see that link for that plugin?

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Well they took the #2 team in the MVFC to the wire, so is the MVFC really this bad?


SDSU is a totally different offense. Plus the Jacks to the foot off the pedal. If the Grizz do the same thing UND can come back.

[BisonBacker]

Where did you see that link for that plugin?

Forget that question I had it installed and it still isn't working

[Twentysix]

Where did you see that link for that plugin?

America one requires that to be installed, its the way they compress their video stream.

[NoDak 4 Ever]

My mistake, but you get the ideal. :D

SELA's doing a number on them at home. Best not hang your hopes on the quality of SDSU yet.

[Twentysix]

To be fair SELA does seem like a quality team. But it is looking like SDSU is overvalued at this point. Maybe the jacks will go nuts on them in the second half.

Still SDSU will see the NDSU as their superbowl. They will be up for that game. Everyone will be up for the two time defending FCS champs. I guess when you are at the top you have that target on your back.

[Grizalltheway]

Johnson with a paltry 425 QB rating...

[Grizalltheway]

Actually I'm hanging my hopes on the quality of my team, of which I have zero doubt.xthumbsupx

Don't worry, NDSU will woop ya once your head gets too big. xcoolx

[srgrizizen]

Might very will be true, but thanks for the vote of confidence that the Griz will be in the playoffs.xlolx

[darell1976]

UND will get revenge and win next week...my prediction:

UND 56
BYE. 55

[Grizalltheway]

Okay.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

UNDs DBs are horrible

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Okay.

LOL...I was wrong....xthumbsupx

[BisonFan02]

That ball is OUT!......Dan Hammer sucks.

[Twentysix]

Might very will be true, but thanks for the vote of confidence that the Griz will be in the playoffs.xlolx

They look like they will make it. Especially if App quits ****ting the bed.

[Twentysix]

That ball is OUT!......Dan Hammer sucks.

His back hitting the turf is what caused the ball to come out, that was clearly not a fumble.

[BisonFan02]

Oh, TD Montana.

[BisonFan02]

His back hitting the turf is what caused the ball to come out, that was clearly not a fumble.

No **** but not according to Mr. Hammer until he got a second look. :D

[Thundar]

Dan "the homer" Hammer is terrible to listen to

[Twentysix]

No **** but not according to Mr. Hammer until he got a second look. :D

In the bigsky those are fumbles ;)

SDSU takes the lead over SELA.

[Twentysix]

Wow what a horrid effort, hit in the hands with no defensive pressure.

[Grizalltheway]

Wagenmann is in full beast mode tonight. xbowx

[Twentysix]

HUGE PF

bench his ass the rest of the game.

[Grizalltheway]

Nice pass and catch by UND. These refs are effing ridiculous.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

UND comeback????

[Twentysix]

UND comeback????

Maybe, they will still lose.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Maybe, they will still lose.

When they throw as much as they do...you never know.

[IBleedYellow]

I think honestly many Bison fans think we maybe seeing Montana later this year. It's nice to be able to see a potential playoff team we maybe playing. Assuming we make the playoffs as anything can happen but I think it's safe to say if both NDSU and Montana play like they have been we may cross paths in postseason play. Oh and as far as Un_ they are going toe to toe ;)

I'm just watching a football game, lol.

[NoDak 4 Ever]

Boy Hammer sure loves talking about Johnson's rape trial.

[Twentysix]

I love how they can't believe Montana is not the top ranked team in the polls.

Like... maybe UND just sucks?

[BisonBacker]

Hammer is just an embarrassment.

[Twentysix]

SDSU up on SELA 27-19 4minutes remain in the game.

[Squealofthepig]

Down by thirty, North Dakota lets the clock run out on the third quarter instead of running a free play.xsmhx

[IBleedYellow]

I mean, I am a Bison fan first, Longhorns fan second, Griz fan third. So I see why I"m here, but none of you are actually telling me about the game :P

I bet we play the griz this year either at Wa Griz or in the Dome. Can't wait.

[IBleedYellow]

Hammer is just an embarrassment.

He tried to play being an NDSU homer when he was here those few years, but he still had his UND bias to him then. He can stay up there.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

I love how they can't believe Montana is not the top ranked team in the polls.

This here!!

Both of them are poor announcers. Gee, maybe the Grizz are not #1 cus NDSU is probably pretty good and has proved it for over 2 + yrs.....

Hard to say, what if they are on the other side of the bracket? Could meet in Frisco?

I bet we are opposite eachother in the bracket, specifically so that can't happen.

I just wanted to see how many empty band seats there are xlolx

[Twentysix]

SDSU up 34-26 on SELA 2 minutes remain.

SDSU has 52 yard Pick 6, SELA takes the ensuing kickoff to the house.

Wow fun game for the Jacks fans to watch.

[Twentysix]

Home games at Wa-Griz and the Fargodome finance a lot of the playoffs, I really doubt we will be on the same side of the bracket.

[BisonBacker]

Had to go over to SS.com to see the meltdown and read this.

Schlossman: "if you can give up 295 yards rushing to one guy one week, and somehow look worse the next week, that's impressive."

Hilarious.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

LOL....what a pathetic defense for UND.....xlolx

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

WOW....Grizz go for 2....run it up!!

[Twentysix]

Haha, yeah UND is outmatched this year.

Oh well. They will eventually, someday become competitive.

[BisonBacker]

Wow a 2+ conversion when you are up that big? Hmmmmmm

[BisonFan02]

LOL at the 2 point conversion by Montana

[Twentysix]

This game made me start thinking about the seeding.

I suspect Fordham and EIU are the most sure locks for seeding as their conferences likely won't trip them up at all and both have FBS wins.

Then who, NDSU/UNI/Maybe SDSU/Montana/EWU/SLC schools/Towson

[Squealofthepig]

Wow a 2+ conversion when you are up that big? Hmmmmmm

yeah, not a fan of that. Gads, 11:49 to go in this one still. And here I was upset I couldn't watch both the UND/Griz and ISUr/EIU games.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

WOW....Grizz go for 2....run it up!!

Just one point short of what it should be if our kicking game was sound. Hope we get polished up on that front but looking good in all other areas of concern right now.

[Twentysix]

yeah, not a fan of that. Gads, 11:49 to go in this one still. And here I was upset I couldn't watch both the UND/Griz and ISUr/EIU games.

They are essentially the same game. Montana is EIU and ISU-r is UND.

Actually it looks like EIU vs ISU-r might be a slightly bigger mismatch :O

[Squealofthepig]

but looking good in all other areas of concern right now.

I don't know, I haven't seen us get one good punt off all day...

[BisonBacker]

Well Hattie Mae is going to be busy serving up UN_ fans xnodx

[Twentysix]

UND needs to fire their DC. Montana has surpassed 600 yards.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

yeah, not a fan of that. Gads, 11:49 to go in this one still. And here I was upset I couldn't watch both the UND/Griz and ISUr/EIU games.

Eh, you start pulling starters in the 3rd and give a team a chance at stopping a low percentage play that is only worth one extra point when your kicking game is a bit tenuous. Taking into consideration that against App your took 4 knees in the last minute from about the 6...I can live with it without feeling tooo bad about the decision.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

I don't know, I haven't seen us get one good punt off all day...

tooshay.

[Twentysix]

tooshay.

You spell like a Phoenician.

[Squealofthepig]

Manny Diaz need not apply.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

UND needs to fire their DC. Montana has surpassed 600 yards.


ss.com is pretty interesting....xlolx

[TennBison]

I just put it together, Gavin Hagfors of Montana is the son of Greg Hagfors Bison hall of fame center.

[IBleedYellow]

Home games at Wa-Griz and the Fargodome finance a lot of the playoffs, I really doubt we will be on the same side of the bracket.

Umm, I remember doing my math last year, JUST NDSU hosting 3 playoff games pays for the rest of the playoffs. Now add Wa-Griz in there and the numbers get big fast.


Also: What's wrong with going for 2?! Gotta practice in your OOC games :D

[Bisonator]

Score?

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Score?

Grizz 55-17

[TennBison]

Score?
Montana- a lot
UND- not very much

[BisonFan02]

ss.com is pretty interesting....xlolx

ummm...yeah. From everyone's favorite poster UNDBIZ:

hm.grwn.grizfan, on 14 September 2013 - 09:22 PM, said:Respect the um program from now on.....please.....good luck the rest of your season. You may not face an opponent quite as determined as us!



At this point I'd say we were more bad than the griz were good, but I wouldn't mind being proven wrong over the course of the season.

[gregatim]

From the ESPN recap of the game. Uh who did the Griz beat???

Montana storms past North Dakota, 55-17
RECOMMEND8TWEET1
Associated Press
GRAND FORKS, N.D. -- Jordan Johnson threw five touchdown passes as Montana erased an early North Dakota lead to defeat the Bison 55-17 on Saturday night.


The Griz (2-0) reeled off 33 unanswered points after falling behind 7-0 just minutes after the opening kickoff. Johnson, who completed 15 of 19 passes for 354 yards, threw 3 TDs in the first quarter and two more late in the game.


North Dakota(1-2) scored first on a Joe Mollberg pass to Blair Townsend, but didn't get on the board again until a Zeb Miller field goal 51 seconds before the half. The Bison had torched Montana's secondary last year, Greg Hardin setting a Big Sky single-game receiving record of 333 yards. Hardin was held to 46 yards on five catches Saturday.


Saturday was a nonconference game.


The Griz last won in Grand Forks in 1971. The teams did not play between 1973 and 2010.

I would slow your roll there. However, the more I read about the malaise UND fans have towards their program...the more I'm starting to agree with you that UND is just a really bad football team. Initially, the Griz deserved more credit for their squad, but if it makes you feel better to play dead/act defeated, power to you!

Fortunately for me, I wasn't the one playing dead/acting defeated on the football field tonight. The players should be embarrassed and Muss should've been fired years ago.

Which day was the worst for UND football:

1. Losing to Sioux Falls
2. Losing to Montana by such a huge margin amd finding out College game day will be in Fargo
3. NDSU winning back to back Championships

[UNDBIZ]

Which day was the most embarassing for UND football:

Sioux Falls. They really aren't even that close in my opinion, although some UND fans would disagree with me. This game wasn't really all that different from EWU and MSU last year, except this one was in the Alerus. All of them, along with the Idaho loss a couple years ago, have been complete embarrassments which cement Coach Muss as one of the worst coaches in UND FB history.

I don't consider College Game Day airing from Fargo to be an embarrassment for UND. As much as I hate you guys ;) it's pretty cool so congrats.

[UNDBIZ]

Ah, I see you changed the question now. It's still Sioux Falls.

[NDSUstudent]

Ah, I see you changed the question now. It's still Sioux Falls.

Just giving you a hard time. Good luck at the rest of season.

Sounds about right. I think around 10 of those wins were over DII or lower schools.

Yeah, you guys should keep Muss! Seems like your AD loves him, that nice contract extension that they just signed him to!
