Congrats to both teams! This has to sting for Montana. Good effort all around. Probably a bad time, but they're going to have to play some teams in the future to be ready for these matchups.

Game effort for both teams.

WOO HOO WOFFORD!!!!!

So much for meeting in Chattanooga...but good game.

great job woffy

[chrebet87]

showing the end on ESPNNews right now

[proasu89]

Way to go Terriers. Reading the game thread is harder on the heart than watching in person. Can't take another one today.

[GoAgs72]

Congrats, Wofford! I was for you all the way. A very exciting game - hard to believe a team with almost no passing can do so well.

[igo4uni]

finish on epsnews now.

[Henwatcher]

Congrats to Wofford. DawgCit, you are the man!

[MSU_77]

Congratulations, Terriers!

Great game by both teams.

That schedule obviously had the Griz battle tested. xsmiley_wix

Hats off to the Terriers! xbowx xbowx xnodx

[slostang]

Wofford announcers are saying that Wofford was the first warm weather team to win a playoff game in Wash/Griz. I guess they are forgot about Cal Poly in 2005.

Great win by Wofford and tough loss by Montana. Great game.

Had the kick been made methinks your post wouldn't have.

I would understand if Wofford had one by more than a TD but in this case maybe Wofford got it done and Montana's SOS had nothing to do with it.

[trouthunter]

now he's just a putz who missed a kick. i told you that DAWGCIT was the best in FCS history!

Who holds the record?

[WrenFGun]

I'm seriously shaking after these SoCon games. Goodness. Does this happen every week? Yeesh.

[ASUPATCH]

Heck of a season for the Griz and a heck of a win for the socon. Great win congrats ankle biters.

[putter]

hats off to Wofford. That was one hard faught victory in a place that Coach Ayers said that S. Carolina stadium could not hold a candle too! Way to get the victory. That option had the Griz players out of place all day and when you get 3 turnovers and your coaching staff doesn't think you can get 1 yard for the TD then you get what you get. Good luck next week xthumbsupx

[slostang]

cal poly isnt a southern team, there a western team xnodx

They did not say southern team, they said warm weather team. It was in the 70's in San Luis Obispo when Cal Poly flew to Missoula. I would say that Cal Poly is a warm weather team. BTW it was snowing when the game started.

[MR. CHICKEN]

GOTTAH NAP....REST UP FO' RICKY SANTOS........AN' DUH CAA 'CATS.......C'MON CAA!

Great game Wofford. You made the plays when it mattered. Good luck the rest of the way. I'm going to go look for a high bridge to jump off. I'll be back Monday when I calm down.

WOW! That was an amazing game... tough to lose that one for either team. First the Cubbies now this. Great job Wofford, you guys have a good football team with an impossible offense to figure out, and your defense showed its worth too, and you fans have been awesome as well. Sorry if we got a little overbearing, sometimes. Congrats and good luck!

[dungeonjoe]

I heard that too and laughed and said, Cal Poly already did that! What do some guys from South Carolina know? -unicat87
we know we kept hearing how SoCon teams could NOT win in Missoulaxrolleyesx

[mistersykes]

Awesome job Wofford! I knew you could pull it off! Feels good, huh?

Congrats on a another great season Montana! I wasn't one of the ones who was doubting that Montana could play, and the game came down to the last play.

Gotta love FCS!!!

[AZGrizFan]

Well, that's what the Griz get for lettin' this game come down to the last play. 3 turnovers - 0 points. That ain't gonna cut it. And as dissapointed as I am for Dan Carpenter, I'd like to shoot Phenice for his play calling. Half the ******** time it seems like the Griz are playing for a field goal. And today, it came back to bite 'em in the ass. That game was a microcosm of the entire season. As great a job as the Griz did bottling up the Terriers offense and holding them to 23 points, I gotta take my hat off to the Terrier defense. Hilliard got his, but they got stops at the right time, and the Griz could not. We had multiple chances but 0 points off three turnovers and having to settle for three field goals pretty much sealed our fate.

Nice gameplan by the Wofford DC....they played Griz-style bend but don't break defense....and the OC pulled out the passing card at just the right times in the second half...looked like they caught the Griz napping every time he threw it up...

Our season is over, I'm goin' to Crapsville. Drinks are on DungeonJoe!!! xbawlingx xbawlingx xbawlingx xbawlingx xbawlingx xbawlingx

I had this conversation with someone the other day. SIU was one dimensional last year with Whitlock (I think that was his name). With the option (and so MANY options at that), I'd hardly call this offense one-dimensional....and I actually would enjoy watching that offense, if it weren't pounding the ball down the Griz's throat today....xcoolx xcoolx xcoolx

I thought the turnovers were the difference early, our running game could not have held them if they had gotten up if the griz had gotten up 14.

[putter]

Cleets,

When you run the option that well with that many formations you are not one dimensional. The Griz were hampered because they don't see a normal option team that much and, other than the SoCon, not many teams will see this type of option. The Griz players fly to the ball but against this offense you can't do that and it burned them many times today. Hard to get ready for this offense in 5 days. Hats off to Wofford.

[Baldy]

As I said earlier in the week, Wofford is a machine and the only way Montana would win would be if Wofford turned it over. Well, I was half right. xlolx

[Griz40]

Today has been a GREAT football day! Congrats Wofford! It was a good win!!

I agree......the Griz D had thier work cut out for them and did a good job. I am just hoping the offense at some point gets back to being a dynamic offense. Today's loss was on the Griz O.
Good Luck Wofford!!!! Here is to you winning in Chatty!!!

[putter]

Funny how the Griz were supposed to be big and stong on the O-Line and Wofford stuffed the run pretty well all day. xsmhx This may be sour grapes but sometime that Griz O has to live up to expectations.

the griz allowed or the terriers took a sack? 4 of them today. I must say the Griz O-Line was huge (at least bigger than Wofford), looks like finesse won that battle.

whatever way you want to look at it. It's been that way most of the year....I'd say that unit has underperformed tremendously (considering the expectations of that group at the beginning of the year).

Not having followed the griz as closely this year, I will certainly take your word for it. I think Wofford got a win today because they have flown under the radar most of the season with their offensive scheme. That will be more difficult to pulloff form here on out

I don't know, Joe. Their next opponent STILL has only 5-6 days to prepare for that offense. Just can't be done effectively unless you have an option team or two in your conference. xpeacex

[Eaglesrus]

I'm seriously shaking after these SoCon games. Goodness. Does this happen every week? Yeesh.

Pretty much. Great game to bothe teams, keep it up Terriers!

[Black and Gold Express]

I don't know, Joe. Their next opponent STILL has only 5-6 days to prepare for that offense. Just can't be done effectively unless you have an option team or two in your conference. xpeacex

Ya'll learned what we've known for a while, Wofford can be a real PITA every 3-4 years when they have an experienced group running that offense. They rarely hit you for a huge play, but they always seem to be getting those 2nd and 3rd and 2-4 yard plays that you just barely miss stopping.

You KNOW what's coming, but still don't stop it. That is what makes playing them so frustrating when they are clicking, as they are this year.

[RE/MAXGriz]

Congrats Wofford, best of luck you guys. It was a great battle, coming from my side I wish it would have gone the other way, but you guys really were the better team today.

[Tailbone]

.....as dissapointed as I am for Dan Carpenter, I'd like to shoot Phenice for his play calling. Half the ******** time it seems like the Griz are playing for a field goal. ........

I hate it when my wife tells me she "saved me" $200.00...because it means she spent much more.

Carp was a great weapon - set the record for most points by a field goal kicker in the history of I-AA/FCS. The guy whose record was broken? Chris Snyder another Griz. Both played for Hauck.

Hmmm.

AZ and Joe, I agree with Griz 40, the offense lost this game. The offensive line did not block well and proved it when 5 offensive lineman and 1 back could not block out 4 guys rushing. If you were there checking it out with binoculars it was pitiful. There was no blocking for the pass and no blocking for Lex pass the line of scrimmage. He was met several times by multiply tacklers at the line with no blockers to help him out. It was obvious today that a well coached team that can execute can score 23 pts on a very good defense. Whereas our offense had 1st and goal at the 3 and we could not get in. Today it came down to play calling, o-line fundamentals (blocking) and coaching that would have won this game today for the griz. It was not the defense stopping the triple option offense or Woffords defense stopping us, we simply stopped ourselves. If you were there and saw the game you would realize that we had opportunities but could not execute. It has been obvious to many fans here and on egriz that our o-line has not been the line we thought it would be, it is hard to say if it was the players not playing up to expectation or if they were not coached well enough to carry out the fundamentals of blocking out their man. I believe it is both. The other aspect that has obivious to others has been offensive play calling that has been predictable and telegraphed. This cost us the game as well today.

No. we 'lost' the War of Northern Aggression.

Ummmm...no it was the Civil War. But noone "lost". The United States remained intact.

Congrats to both teams! This has to sting for Montana. Good effort all around. Probably a bad time, but they're going to have to play some teams in the future to be ready for these matchups.

Game effort for both teams.
It stings....but to be honest it couldn't have been to a better group of guys. My brother told me (watching it from Billings) that the Wofford team went out and kneeled down with Montana after the game and the coach for Wofford in the post game had nothing but GREAT things to say. Not good...but GREAT. Class act Wofford!!!! Good luck!!!
