Montana State vs. Weber State

[CrazyCat]

I think a little discussion is in order :)


Since I Bleed Purple knows nothing about the Bobcat LB's, I'll start there with stats from Saturday.

Bobby Daly
12 tackles,1.5 TFL,1FR

Jeff Price
9 tackles, 1 FR, 1INT,

Chase Gazzerro
8 tackles,4 TFL,3 sacks

Goofy looking as they are, I think this is one of the best groups of linebackers in FCS.

No argument here!

I wouldn't mind it a bit if Daly, Price, or Gazzerro played for the Griz!

I hope these three have a career day against Weber!

[Green26]

I'm picking the Cats in an upset after a WSU let down after its big win last Saturday.

I think everyone except for Weber fans is rooting for the Bobcats... screw up the standings! xlolx xrotatehx

[I Bleed Purple]

Indeed. 12, 9, and 8 for one game? Or total? Doesn't seem like a lot for 5 games.

[I Bleed Purple]

6.5 tackles for loss...by the linebackers...seems we should be doing a lot of play action, which we do a lot of.

This is the first game that the real Cats are the better/equal team to the name Cats since %#$@# Lilu, Lilang, Lola, or whatever the hell he is. I don't even want to try to get that guy's name right. Trying to erase that game from memory.

I'm trying to think here, but isn't there another school that had a much worse problem with Lulay? Nothing's really coming to mind....xrolleyesx

LuLu had a bad game on this day

I don't know what he did to UM, but something like a 17 point comeback in the last five minutes of the game. All due to this guy running around like a freak show kind of makes you dislike the guy.

He played the Griz pretty well. He won some games.xmadx

Okay, since I'm masochistic in a way.

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/boxscore?confId=18&date=20051008&gameId=252812692

Okay, it was in 11 minutes. The last five, though, was heartbreaking. Probably had half to two thirds of his yards in the fourth.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

I don't think he ever beat Erik Meyer and EWU... we've always done very well against MSU even in our down years (like 2006 when we won 3 games).

[GolfingGriz]

I won't pick a winner, but WSU better play like they did against UM.

[mvemjsunpx]

Checking the records, MSU hasn't beaten Eastern since 2002 (Josh Blankenship's final year & Lulay's first year). The Eagles are 23-8 against the Bobcats all-time.

On the flip side, Montana State is 25-19-1 against Weber & has won 7 straight.

Nevermind that it's an illegal hit.

[Walkon79]

Why don't we get back to this game.

- One of the best rushing defenses in the BSC v. Smith.
- Bobcats are banged up on the d line, and Smith averaged 7+ per carry last week
- Higgins has been a stud!
- Bobcats passing game is inconsistent
- Nobody outside of Bozeman is giving the real CATS much of a chance.

MSU 27
WSU 24

This streak will not end on Saturday!! Demetrius Crawford for 100+ and at least two scores.

Smith is good but the rush offense of MSU is actually better than Webers.

Higgins is also good but MSU has the best pass defense in the BSC

Kempt is making better decisions and his 15-21 performance against ISU might not have been exciting but he threw 0 interceptions with 1 TD passing and 1 TD rushing.

[I Bleed Purple]

We ended one, so why not the other.

If it was in Ogden, I'd say 17-21 point win, but since it's in Bozeman, it'll probably be a touchdown. 31-24, maybe?

[wapiti]

This game has the plenty of potential to be a good hard hitting game.
I will pick the home team on this one by 3.

We all bow down to the powerhouse that is Webber International. Oops, I meant Weber State. When it comes right down to it, how can we NOT be terrified of a program that makes playoff runs every year? Year after year. They're like old UCLA basketball.

What's that you say? 1991? Really? 17 years since their last sniff at post-season. The way IBP runs his yap, I would have thought that App State only THOUGHT they had won the last 3 and that it was really Weber.

What it comes down to, once again, is that you need to prove it. The Wildcats exorcised 1 demon last week, but one win does not a season make. Should be an interesting contest...if Smith can avoid getting put into the third row by Daly and Co.

MSU by 4.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize our 1995 team, 1998 team, or our 2002 team, or 2004 team, or any of those teams is the be all indicator of how our 2008 team really is. The reason I "run my yap" as you put it is that I've seen those teams from '91 til now. This is the best one. It's about this year. And this year, we're good. If you win this year, it's a quality win.

[CrazyCat]

Rep points for you once you get that Daly pic working.


Really? I can see it! plus one more :)

[Peems]

Weber is good, but I'm not giving them too much, because the Griz are not that good. MSU to me is still hard to determine, but did exactly what they were supposed to last week against ISU. Seeing that the game is in Bozeman, I give the slight edge to the Bobs, but wouldn't be surprised if Weber wins. The Bobcats D is what gives them the definite advantage over what the Griz had last week. Their D is experienced and good. 33-27

[Walkon79]

If you win this year, it's a quality win.


Agreed. Lets see how they perform after the emotional win last week. I'm lookin for a letdown.

[bpcats]

I love this game. Weber has proven how good it is with a great win over the Griz. I know that MSU is good, but this game will say a lot about this team. Weber 28 MSU 24

[I Bleed Purple]

As I put in the other thread, Big Sky teams do seem to lose after beating Montana. I don't see it happening on the offensive end. The defensive, maybe. They shouldn't get too high since two of the four turnovers were gifts.

You mean that MSU has a better defense than UM? No way! You obviously do not understand that Bobby Hauck gets his pick of any Montana high school player he wants. MSU gets the leftovers.

And, Bobby Hauck is a wonderkin recruiter nationally too. Any Griz will tell you that! There is no possible way that MSU could have a better defense than the Cats.

better recruits + better coaching = better Griz defense xsmiley_wix

[Jacked_Rabbit]

For what its worth, here is the spread on the game:

3:35p
Weber State Wildcats -2½ -115
Montana State Bobcats +2½ -115

After an impressive win over the Griz last week, I'll take Weber St. to cover...

[I Bleed Purple]

I love it. In a thread that has nothing to do with Montana, we get someone coming in railing against the administration. Please get out of the MSU-WSU game thread, Wolfman. Much appreciated.

Take a hike!! If you want to take a crap do it in your own teams nest. Your ***** is growing real old.

[Tod]

I'm torn on this one. As a Montana native, the 'Cats are my second favorite FCS team.

But it's nice to see Weber doing so well. It's been UM, MSU, EWU and NAU, with a little PSU, for a long time. I'm loving that the GPI has five Big Sky teams in the top 28!!!

That may change on Saturday, though. UM or EWU will lose. MSU or WSU will lose. NAU or PSU will lose (though PSU is not one of the five teams in the top 28, they could be if they win).

What a Saturday for Big Sky football!!! I'd take the day off, but I'm taking off the 25th and all of us Montanans are going to Greeley. xnodx xnodx xnodx

Put down the crack pipe and step back into reality. MSU defense is tops in the league this year. HANDS DOWN

How many QB sacks have the griz gotten this year? I'd guess that Gazzero had more against ISU than the griz have gotten all season.

[Green26]

MSU is averaging 1 more sack per game than UM.

6 of MSU's 15 sacks came against D-II Adams St, whom MSU beat 59-3.

Gazzerro has 4 sacks for the season. UM's leading sacker has 3 sacks for the season.

This is the year for Weber State. After beating Montana, there is no doubt they are ready for this game. Weber by 21

What the hell does this tell us, not a damn thing, we dont have a single common opponent, MSU played 2 fbs games, 2 fcs games and 1 DII, UM played 4 FCS games and 1 DII game and ZERO fbs games.

No team will do that to the the Cats in their house this year. Count on it.

[uofmman1122]

No team will do that to the the Cats in their house this year. Count on it.I don't think Weber will win by 21, either, but no one thought Montana would lose by almost 20.

And if you say you did, you're full of it. :pxlolx

I actually thought the Griz would squeak another one out last week.

[cats2506]

Not much respect for the Bobcats here, but then they are right in that we dont have a "quality win" yet this year. Watched the UM vs WSU game again, the griz gave a lot of gifts and were out coached too. I hate to predict the turnovers but I am sure that we will not be outcoached like UM was. Bobcats by 10

[CopperCat]

This is the year for Weber State. After beating Montana, there is no doubt they are ready for this game. Weber by 21

xrolleyesx

Maybe you didn't pay attention enough to the BSC to know that MSU has arguably the best defense in the conference (i.e. east coast bias). MSU might not win the game, but they will NOT lose by that many points.

[Green26]

What's your problem, 2506? I was answering PhantomCat's question.

What the hell do any of your posts tell us? Little or nothing. Settle down.

[CrazyCat]

1 more sack per game = 5 more sacks.

MSUs second leading in sacks also has 3.

Yea, we threw a TD pass I think. But there was something in the game notes that said the MSU defense has scored on Weber in 2002, 2005, 2006, and last year. You should probably... not do that if you want to win. xrotatehx

Rediculous... it's not even mid October yet!

The eastern half of MT and most of ND are supposed to get a good blanket this afternoon through tonight of snow. Some places were supposed to get more than 12 inches, from the weather report this morning around 7.

[GOKATS]

So far the only thing that's consistent today weather wise is the wind. It snowed earlier, didn't amount to anything and now the sun is out. Snow is forecast thru Sun. night and the high tomorrow is 32 and Sun. 30 then warming up the next few days. We generally get the first snow about mid September so it's actually about a month late this year.

I was thinking the same thing. We got into some snow a couple weeks ago on an overnight hike into some hotsprings but it was nothing major, a couple inches.

I just saw the weather report also and just wanted to say that if you guys getting a serious dumping tomorrow during the game, I want to see pictures on here tomorrow night...

I talked to a guy a bit a go who stopped in Bozeman on his way from Missoula to Billings. He had business in Helena this morning and said there was about 8" at Avon and about a foot on McDonald Pass. No snow after he left Helena until he hit Bozeman.

[Bobcat in NC]

Smith's really getting to know the MSU linebackers.

[I Bleed Purple]

Just lost the signal.

[Bobcat in NC]

8 carries for 2 yards thusfar. Of course, it could just as easily be 9 carries for 80 yards after his next carry. The start by the D has been good, just need to stay focused now.

Interesting......If Oregon hadn't found a QB in Jeremiah Masoli I would be so bitter at you people. xlolx

Kempt's a good kid, glad to see he finally won the start.

[ncbears]

score??

[Bobcat in NC]

Weber, for some reason, let's the clock expire when they have the ball deep in MSU territory and 2 timeouts left. Huge mental mistake not noticing that the clock restarted after a penalty.

[I Bleed Purple]

Weird way to end the half. In any case 14-9 at the half, Weber.

[Bobcat in NC]

14-9 Weber. Halftime.

[DuckDuckGriz]

score??

14-9 Weber

Are you going to let up on ISU soon, you were more lovable as the Bad News Bears ;)

[I Bleed Purple]

Don't know the rules, but under 2 minutes, isn't the clock supposed to stop on any defensive penalty?

[DuckDuckGriz]

Don't know the rules, but under 2 minutes, isn't the clock supposed to stop on any defensive penalty?

I believe you're right. What was the penalty? If this is the case - the BSC refs blow another big one.

[I Bleed Purple]

Defensive holding.

They rewound the clock.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Defensive holding.

They rewound the clock.

I can't see any other reason then why McBride wouldn't have called a time-out. That's ridiculous if this rule is the case, which I believe it is. I think the same thing happened against MSU a few years ago at Sac State.

[I Bleed Purple]

What happened is that there was a pass to Smith for a first down. He got drilled. Weber called timeout. Holding was on opposite side of field in the secondary and was called after Weber had gone to the sidelines and the ref announced it. Ref called the penalty, said Weber was not charged the timeout, set the ball, and wound the clock.

Stupidly handled. Ref should have told McBride that he was going to wind the clock, do you want to still use the timeout.

[I Bleed Purple]

Lost the feed again.

I hope Weber comes out and blows 'em out. Don't want to watch a close game and have the feed cut out on an important play.

[I Bleed Purple]

Snow covering the field now.

Nearing white out conditions, unless the returning feed is screwed up somehow.

[Peems]

Bozeman looks completely miserable. Going back and forth between the Griz game and the Cat game and it is coming down hard now. Have a friend at the cat game and he is saying it is horrible.

[I Bleed Purple]

Long drive for MSU resulting in a punt. Weber has it on the 20.

[I Bleed Purple]

Weber driving now.

[I Bleed Purple]

Touchdown, Weber State.

Smith up the gut for 3.

[I Bleed Purple]

2 point conversion good. 22-9, Weber State.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Wow. Cats falling apart?

[I Bleed Purple]

Great play fake for MSU, easy touchdown DROPPED.

[I Bleed Purple]

FUMBEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

Weber Ball.

[I Bleed Purple]

Weber moves the ball a bit, punt puts MSU inside their 20.

[I Bleed Purple]

MSU in the red zone.

[I Bleed Purple]

End of 3.

Weber State up 22-9.

[Bobcat in NC]

Field goal MSU. 22-12 Weber.

[I Bleed Purple]

Good stop in the red zone for Weber. Still two score game.

[I Bleed Purple]

Bobcats blitzing like madmen.

Weber still driving. Big 3rd down completions.

[I Bleed Purple]

Advantage in the first half-MSU LB.
Advantage in second half- WSU Smith.

[Bobcat in NC]

MSU defense getting shredded now.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Weber showing that they can pound it away and finish in the 4th.

[I Bleed Purple]

Touchdown, Weber State.

Toone huge this drive.

[I Bleed Purple]

Missed PAT though.

Still just two scores at 16 points up.

[I Bleed Purple]

MSU has moved the ball some. False Starting their way to victory, though.

[I Bleed Purple]

Turnover on downs for MSU. WSU with ball just on their side of midfield.

[Bobcat in NC]

Smith's really showed up in the second half. Weber driving to put the game away.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Weber has done a great job the last two weeks of slamming the door in the second half.

[Bobcat in NC]

That damn tipped ball TD just seemed to take the wind right out of MSU.
Since then, they've done pretty much nothing. Some nice yards on offense, but just no ability to close (credit the Weber D).

[Bobcat in NC]

Gotta go drink thsi game out of my mind. Great game Weber.

[I Bleed Purple]

One more on the board.

Mailei Touchdown.

[DuckDuckGriz]

I see no reason why Weber can't run the table now.

Congrats Wildcats - I think a win like that in Bozo against this MSU team is pretty impressive.

[I Bleed Purple]

Don't sleep on NAU.

[I Bleed Purple]

11-130 1 TD for Tim Toone today.

[I Bleed Purple]

In the snow and 25 mph winds, Cameron Higgins went 28-35 347 yds and 4 TDs against just one pick.

80% completion percentage in wind and snow. Amazing.

[Peems]

Eastern might still pose a problem too.

[CatFan22]

Eastern might still pose a problem too.

If they lose to MSU next week in Bozeman, they are pretty much done.

[I Bleed Purple]

They already are, basically. Can only play spoilers, now.

I wasn't talking about winning the conference, but that they do have the talent to compete with anyone in the sky and could throw a wrench into Weber's plans, as could NAU

If they win out or only lose one..they deserve the title...but it is the BSC, huh? xnodx

They are a tough team though, congrats on the "W".

[placidlakegriz]

If they lose to MSU next week in Bozeman, they are pretty much done.

Same for MSU, Lose next week and playoff hopes are dead.

[I Bleed Purple]

Both teams should win next week. We got UNC at home and they're in Pocatello.

We're not great down there, but we're not great in Bozeman, either.

UNC should be a win. The big NAU game. Home against PSU should be a win. In Pocatello should be a win. EWU game at home, given EWU road performance in Portland should be a W.

Still, next game is the most important one. We let down two years ago and almost gave a bad UNC team a win. Can't do that this year with a not so bad UNC team.

EDIT: Also, a one loss record with the loss to NAU means we wouldn't deserve the title.

[CrazyCat]

Good game Weber State.

I'll let this picture sum up my feelings today

[Grizaholic17]

Weber State truly is the real deal this year. But the griz shaped up this week. We are out for wins now. It was a good wake up call for us. Still a ways to go. Let's have a good one Big Sky!

Lately you never know which PSU team you will face. will it be the team you saw against EWU where everything was clicking or the one that faced NAU where Murphy struck on most plays.
