[Live4Griz]

Great catch for UNC...move the ball to the 47 of UM...FD

Well maybe I made that call too early. Bears driving into UM territory.

Damn -- another completion for UNC. Are we giving them too much space on the short routes or what?

[Live4Griz]

UNC moving the ball...run for 5 yards...2nd and 5 from the 29

[DuckDuckGriz]

Jeez -- Bears making this drive look too easy. Wilson sounds quick.

[Live4Griz]

[DuckDuckGriz]

Big 3rd down here -- bend but don't break D would be ideal right now.

That ENTIRE drive was WAY too easy. :bawling: :bang:

They did whatever they wanted to!!

[DuckDuckGriz]

I don't know if they had a gain that was less than 5 yards. Uncharacteristic Swiss cheese D there.

[PantherRob82]

I didn't expect that from the Griz D. Game is a lot closer than I was thinking so far.

[DuckDuckGriz]

WHAT'S WITH ALL THE PENALTIES??!?!!! :mad:

[Live4Griz]

Kickoff to 25...holding against UM...they will start at the UNC 8

[AZGrizFan]

85 yards in 5 plays. Unreal.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Here we go -- lord knows we can't start a drive inside our own 20.

[AZGrizFan]

Kickoff to 25...holding against UM...they will start at the UNC 8

bigskytv.net must be about 10 second delay. I may have to stop reading this thread! :o :o

[Live4Griz]

Bradshaw gain of 13 to the 21 FD MT

[DuckDuckGriz]

Can someone tell Swogger that, while Eric Allen is great, we do give playing time to other receivers.

[DuckDuckGriz]

I think the audio must be behind too. Live4Griz was way early on that one.

Screen pass to Bradshaw to the 30. Good use of Reggie on this drive so far.

[Tod]

Moving the ball very well now. :nod: :nod:

[DuckDuckGriz]

So far UNC's last drive and UM's current drive are mirror images of eachother.

[Live4Griz]

Bradshaw hitting the holes UM at UNC 35

[DuckDuckGriz]

Well it's about time someone got up!

That's the first decent offensive drive I've seen in about 3 weeks.

[Live4Griz]

UNC takes a knee in the end zone will start at their 20 yard line

[DuckDuckGriz]

That was a perfect response to UNC's easy drive. I was worried that we would be punting out of our own endzone there.

[Live4Griz]

That's the first decent offensive drive I've seen in about 3 weeks.


Yeah...they moved the ball pretty well that drive

[Live4Griz]

QB runs all the way the our 40 yard line...damn it

[DuckDuckGriz]

Unbelievable. Can our offense and defense manage to click in the same game?

That's what it sounds like. Did it look catchable on TV?

[DaBears]

I just turned on the game and was expecting UNC to be down by about 35 points already but I am pleasantly surprised. Go Bears!

[Live4Griz]

Allen on the reverse TD baby!!

[catbob]

And the Griz score on the next play.

From all the views we had, it look like Chambers just fell down.. the defense was a good 2 yards behind him.

I for one think UNC will be a fine addition to the BSC. They will get better as a football program. They have what, 45 freshman and sophmores on the team this year? They have a very good recruiting base and they have Altitude TV, which will bring NATIONAL coverage to the BSC. Give them time and you will all eat your words!

I didn't mean to imply that they will not be good in the future. I was referencing an earlier poster who said things were finally back to normal because UNC was losing. I agree that UNC will be good given a few years of aclimation to the Big Sky.

Yep...better for constantly trying for the longer passes. They look much better now.

I can't wait to see the stats at the end of the game. Maybe we'll finally have a POTW candidate.

wierd game. Almost like the defense fell asleep for two consecutive possessions, then woke up.

Now the 2nd stringers are in, for the most part, so if UNC scores a couple of garbage TD's watch other posters say "Well, Griz defense let UNC score 28! How good can they be?"
