There was a little bit of everything.RB passes, TE passes, QB draws, just a lot great play calls there.

Just checkin in, liking what I see. When I left for breakfast it was 3-3 so it looks like the offense got their isht together. Sounds like there's alot of trash talking going on down on the field.

Weber's a good team, I think they'd still have our number if we played them this week. But I think we're starting to get a little tighter as far as discipline goes, especially in the trenches. It's shown the last couple weeks.

guess that answers the question about whether the Griz can score 30....

No doubt Weber was the better team, that day. But turnovers killed us and it seemed after they came back and took the lead, we had no idea what to do. Plus we're getting better.

High snap on a UNC punt - 1st & 10 Montana inside the UNC 20. That Grizalltheway 50 is starting to get in sight.

God we suck, we quit in the 2nd quarter and we come out from halftime and immediatly are trying to run out the clock...

I've got so many more. My favorite for the time being is. The Human Touchdown Machine. But Night Mariani is a classic.

I admit this is very different from what I expected.

Big run for the Bears to the Montana 35.

No if ands or buts we quit. 3-3 after the first quarter and then you guys break off a couple big plays for TD's and immediatly we quit. Pathetic really.

Score remains 41-6.

I have a hard time believing the Bears just quit, this was a huge game for them to make a statement.

Yeah exactly which makes it even all the more disapointing...

My feeling is we were totally intimidated, once some adversity struck we rolled up in a ball and played dead.

Wow - Montana backup QB Jeff Larson in at WR.

Could be - but I think for the first time in years (no offense) the Griz prepared carefully for UNC, knowing what was at stake if they lost this game and well aware of the disaster the Bobcats walked into last year. Twisted compliment - but should tell you how far the Bears have come since joining.

I know we need to give Selle looks but should we really be throwing the ball at this point?

Score by UNC with our seconds in. This is a great game for the Griz. We are back.

No...we quit. The coaches quit and the players quit.

Peems, I coined Marc "Night"Mariani at EGRIZ, and mentioned it here too. I love seeing it used. xthumbsupx

Downing said in the post game press conference they were intimidated by the uniform and quit, how can that not be on the coaching staff? They all need to take a long look in the mirror. xbawlingx

Dude, this years UNC team hasn't quit against anyone. Could it be that you just got steamrolled?xnodx A team with big heart and toughness doesn't play with big heart and toughness for 6 games and then just quit in game 7.

Methinks everyone in Greeley expected it to be closer, and when it didn't happen, they started coming up with excuses. xnodx

Excuses for what? It's a pretty big compliment that you kicked us in the teeth we gave you our lunch money and went crying to the teacher.

Did anyone else love the Hauck quote at the end of the game when he said "I'm impressed with the intensity we brought today, especially playing in an atmosphere like this"?

Thanks for the props Ronbo. There's a reason you were ranked in the top 5 in the nation. We just got beat by a much better team yesterday.

That, NC is the very positive side. You have a team that is rising from the ruins, learning the little differences between winning and not, and finding some confidence in the occasional instances when they do more right than wrong.

Playing Montana allows our team to see where they need to be, hopefully they will decide they also want to be there.

No, Downing said we quit, the players said we weren't prepared, and we invented an injury to our QB at halftime.
