Weber St. @ Cal Poly Game Thread

[UNI Pike]

Poly is playing from behind, something that they have not experienced often.

[mvemjsunpx]

Every D Poly has played should know they are going to pass.

I meant that Weber doesn't really have to fear the option as much any more. They're free to double/scheme away Barden every down now.

[yosef1969]

TD Poly!

[malibudude]

Poly at the 4 .3:22 Barden TD

[charliej]

Wow!

[uofmman1122]

Alright!

TD!

[MustangSally]

That's what I am talking about. Where has that connection been all night??

Go for two??

[mvemjsunpx]

TD to Barden.

42-35 Weber; 3:08 to play (1 Mustang TO left)

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

TD Stangs!!

In all honesty i think Poly has outplayed Weber but they left too many points on the table to this point.

[EmeryZach]

they need a huge stop here

[charliej]

On the bright side..poly 5 for 5 on PAT's :p

[R3TRO]

D has to get a big stop here!

[UNHWildCats]

That's what I am talking about. Where has that connection been all night??

Go for two??
Why would you go for two there?

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Gardner 5 for 5... story of the game!

[yosef1969]

So does Gardner just pretend he's kicking FG? instead of trying onside?

[mvemjsunpx]

Onside attempt goes out of bounds

[EmeryZach]

they almost got the onside. very close. need a 3 and out

[malibudude]

Barden just whiifed the onside kick.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Almost. Toooo bad.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Once again Poly fails to make a play that is there for the taking....

[mvemjsunpx]

A first down here ends it.

[CatFan22]

Close to Barden catching it and running it for a TD.

[Skjellyfetti]

Damn, Barden should have had the onsides kick.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

So does Gardner just pretend he's kicking FG? instead of trying onside?

xlolx xlolx xlolx

I was going to say that. Didn't have enough time before the kick.

[MustangSally]

i have no nails left.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

If Poly stops them they'll have a decent amount of time to try something.

[mvemjsunpx]

Close to Barden catching it and running it for a TD.

You can't advance an onside kick, so it couldn't have been a TD

[mvemjsunpx]

That should do it.

[uofmman1122]

Game over.

Nice game, Mustangs!

[yosef1969]

Nice run Smith. Should be it.

[CatFan22]

Jesus. What a run by Smith.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Another nice run by Smith.

[EmeryZach]

oh man, you got to make that tackle. Ouch, game over

[MustangSally]

It's a clock management game now.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

First down Weber, that'll do it. Poly had him stopped.

Poly has had their chances!!

[grizband]

Nice run by Smith - welcome to Missoula, Weber

[charliej]

That about seals it ...

[EmeryZach]

TD Weber!

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Big Sky goes 2-0 in the first round! Whammy!

[matfu]

score?

time left in game?

[MustangSally]

That was a defeated defense on the field for that TD

[malibudude]

Done. WSU first down. CYA in C' Ville. TD WSU.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

And the icing on the cake. Weber scores... again!

[mvemjsunpx]

TD Weber, which actually gives CP more of a hope than they had otherwise, though it would still be near impossible.

[grizband]

TD Justin White
D*^M he's fast!

[charliej]

Over...like my bracket xsmhx Great game by weber.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Well there goes my pick for national champ....xrotatehx

[CatFan22]

You can't advance an onside kick, so it couldn't have been a TD

Good point. Too many gin and tonics tonight. :D

[Screamin_Eagle174]

49-35 with 2:15 to play.

[Anovafan]

49-35 Weber

[Bettina90]

Cal Poly D looks S-L-O-W.

[yosef1969]

TD Weber. Game over.

Helluva game, especially first 30 minutes. Too many mistakes and missed opportunities for the mustangs.

Gotta wonder if coming so close against Wisconsin messed with their heads a little.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Over...like my bracket xsmhx Great game by weber.

Hey, I had SIU winning it all. Tell me about it. xnonono2x



xlolx

[MustangSally]

An absolute heartbreaker. The Mustangs were due for a game like this, too bad it came against such a worthy opponent. Good luck Weber State.

[onbison09]

Dang was hoping Poly would do it!!

[Anovafan]

I don't think Weber has the defense to win a NC, maybe I am wrong, but not impressed with either team's defense.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Big return by Poly...

[mvemjsunpx]

Mole returns the kick to the Weber 31. How does Weber give that up in this situation?

[FCS Go!]

Hold on.xeekx

[mvemjsunpx]

I don't think Weber has the defense to win a NC, maybe I am wrong, but not impressed with either team's defense.


Cal Poly averages 45 ppg, so 35 allowed by Weber actually looks pretty good.

[Bettina90]

Agreed, Novafan.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Big "Fluffy" Sky Conference is now the Beastly, "Fierce" Sky Conference

[Grizaholic17]

Cal Poly averages 45 ppg, so 35 allowed by Weber actually looks pretty good.

People don't understand Cal Poly. It's not like they had the highest yardage offense in the FCS. xrolleyesx xrolleyesx xrolleyesx xrolleyesx xrolleyesx

[mvemjsunpx]

It's better Tolver didn't catch that one.

[mvemjsunpx]

1st. & goal w/ 1:38 left after a Dally scramble.

Spike, 2nd. & goal.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

1st and goal Poly!!

[MustangSally]

Gotta love a team who plays to the last second.

[mvemjsunpx]

PI on Weber, 1st. & Goal again.

[UNI Pike]

I don't think Weber has the defense to win a NC, maybe I am wrong, but not impressed with either team's defense.

What is the D-E-F-E-N-S-E thing you speak of?

[Grizaholic17]

[twentythreeOh4]

I don't think Weber has the defense to win a NC, maybe I am wrong, but not impressed with either team's defense.

Ask Wisconsin how easy it is to stop Cal-Poly.

[mvemjsunpx]

Dally is picked off for the 4th. time.

He only had 1 pick on the season coming in.


I don't think he's going to lead FCS in efficiency rating after this one.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

ANOTHER, pick. 4 this game....

[malibudude]

done. good luck WSU!

[MustangSally]

After a near perfect season, Dally with 4 INTs

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Dally picked. This guy is a terrible passer. I have no idea what he was doing there.

[UNI Pike]

My question is how tired is Weber going to be after this game? How many miles have they run tonight?

[uofmman1122]

Game. Int Weber.

Welcome to Missoula, Weber!

Pay back time!!!!

[I Bleed Purple]

Picked off in the end zone.

4 picks for Dally.

[Philliesfan980]

Game Over

[yosef1969]

INT Poly
4th today for Dally...story of the game right there.

[appmountaineer]

game. Go Montana next week get your pay back.

[Peems]

what a game! People need to understand that Cal Poly is an offensive juggernaut and that what Weber has done so far is impressive

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Way to go Weber State! Helluva showing!

[Anovafan]

What is the D-E-F-E-N-S-E thing you speak of?

Hah, ok, I take it back, Weber had 4 INTs, they must have defense.

Good for Weber, it was a shootout and a fun game to watch. Congrats to beating a good team in their own house.

[MustangSally]

Cal Poly Mustangs did their school and town proud. It was a rough night to end a bright season.

[EmeryZach]

Weber, shocking the world. Congrats on a huge win.

[CatFan22]

Congrats Weber. Good luck against UM!

[UNHWildCats]

Weber, shocking the world. Congrats on a huge win.
I had them in my bracket, now if I just hadnt picked Maine I would be 8 for 8 xoopsx

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Poly left too many points on the field. Their QB costed them this one IMO.

[Peems]

What conference went undefeated today?:D

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Game. Int Weber.

Welcome to Missoula, Weber!

Pay back time!!!!

You can only hope and pray. I think the Griz are scared...


"Weber?" Sonuvabitch! Not AGAIN!" :p

[Grizaholic17]

Weber, shocking the world. Congrats on a huge win.

Some weren't so shocked **cough** griz fans **cough**

Great Job Weber...but because you are now the opponent, you are Dweber for the rest of the week! Best of Luck in the ZOO

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Big Sky who?

[Screamin_Eagle174]

[UNHWildCats]

ya but had you had 5 teams in would they have gone 4-1? most likely they woulda went 2-3 xwhistlex

[NC Aggie]

I don't think Weber has the defense to win a NC, maybe I am wrong, but not impressed with either team's defense.

Actually, Weber did quite well with defense. Poly has a very potent offense. Either of these teams have/had the potential for a NC. Not saying they would be the favorite, but either can/could have run the table.

[MustangSally]

Some weren't so shocked **cough** griz fans **cough**

Great Job Weber...but because you are now the opponent, you are Dweber for the rest of the week! Best of Luck in the ZOO

Hearing footsteps, Griz? You may be next...

[MTGrizzFan]

You're right!... but is it the Will Ferrell Harry Carey or the Harry Carey Harey Carey?


Game. Int Weber.

Welcome to Missoula, Weber!

Pay back time!!!!

Right on!! I can't wait

[gbhmt]

Well that leaves me at 8-0 in the playoff picks so far:D

[I Bleed Purple]

We showed a few Griz fans what we were like in person. Now it's time to show the rest of 'em!

[Hellgate60]

It will be the third "cat" opponent in three consecutive weeks for the Grizzlies

[SactoHornetFan]

No offense griz fans, but since Weber beat you head to head, they should host. I know there is going to be injustice and awarded the next round to you guys, and that is not right. You lost to them fair and square and this game should be Stewart. And I don't want to hear whining about your tradition, how much of a crowd, blah, blah, blah. For all you guys crow about how FCS gets it done on the field, where, its time to put your money where your mouth is.

Go get em Wildcats and beat the griz!!!

[yosef1969]

Congrats to Weber...your reward??? a trip to WaGriz!!! Good luck!
Tough night for Cal Poly, doesn't negate a great season.

[uofmman1122]

Great game Cal Poly!

You guys hung in there 'til the end. Good luck to you and your seniors. xthumbsupx

[Grizaholic17]

Hearing footsteps, Griz? You may be next...

I respect Weber and all of their power. Believe me. Witnessing the shalacking they put on us earlier, I think it will be a great game! Looking forward to it, hopefully ESPN knows where to go!

[Screamin_Eagle174]

ya but had you had 5 teams in would they have gone 4-1? most likely they woulda went 2-3 xwhistlex

That's the most rediculous statement ever made by you Travis. There's no possible way to evaluate a statement like that.

Not to mention had EWU been in, we would've dismantled a McNeese or UNH... xwhistlex

It's not that, it's the record, ranking, and overall quality of wins. One game, no matter who it's against, shouldn't decide it. If the Griz went 10-2 with a win over weber, would you be making the same argument? xrolleyesx

[Screamin_Eagle174]

It will be the third "cat" opponent in three consecutive weeks for the Grizzlies

Third time's the charm for the 'Cats right? xlolx

[Peems]

This game will be electric. Expect a great playoff game here! Good luck to all in the week to come! Let's be healthy and come out firing everyone! Round 2 here we come!

Well that leaves me at 8-0 in the playoff picks so far:D

8-0

They are a 3 loss team. We are 12-1 sorry. And they lost to a .500 team at home.

[SactoHornetFan]

Head to head....and outside of the Eastern game (which in all reality that game didn't matter), what Weber did was phenomenal this year.

And yes, if the griz would have won, they get the advantage to host the game, IMO. Its what you have done on the field. And their record this year was outstanding. Other than um going to Poly, what was the rest of your non-conf schedule compared to Weber?

[DuckDuckGriz]

Well congrats Weber - turning up the heat once again.

Next Saturday will be interesting.

[Hellgate60]

Third time's the charm for the 'Cats right? xlolx

I certainly hope not. Isn't Villanova the Wildcats? Interesting

[yosef1969]

I respect Weber and all of their power. Believe me. Witnessing the shalacking they put on us earlier, I think it will be a great game! Looking forward to it, hopefully ESPN knows where to go!

I'll second that. Well a double header: JMU/Nova early then UM/Weber late.
I'll be in Boone for ASU/Richmond, so no ESPN needed there, just slows down the game...

[SactoHornetFan]

They are a 3 loss team. We are 12-1 sorry.

They are a one-loss team in FCS. When um finally going to step up and play FBS competition? Those two games Weber had this year I think made them the tough team that they are. Since the griz can't seem to leave Wa-Griz for non-conf games, they basically can write their own ticket.....kinda like some SEC, Big XII teams....

[Screamin_Eagle174]

They are a 3 loss team. We are 12-1 sorry. And they lost to a .500 team at home.

Not arguing for Weber to get a home game, but Weber played up two games and was competitive. Montana played down one game and was competitive (and almost lost xlolx ). And that .500 team (now above .500) has a lot more talent and deserves a lot more respect than their record indicates, and you know it. xrulesx

We make $600,000 to $1,100,000 for our home games. Why would we do that?

If Weber had taken care of business last week against EWU they might have a case but they didn't so they don't.

I have a lot of respect for Montana and their fans. They're a great team and have a hell of a fan base (not like they have an NFL team over there or anything :p ).

I do wish however they'd play up more often and play tougher OOC games.

Montana played Cal Poly outside of Washington-Grizzly stadium. Besides the two FBS games, Weber state played a Divison II team and an NAIA team. I go to Montana Tech which is an NAIA team and that's an absolute embarrasment that an FCS team would schedule an NAIA team. Montana scheduled tough competion

[uofmman1122]

Cutting through all the BSC bickering, Cal Poly should its head high after that game.

Great game Weber, and great game Cal Poly.

Can't wait to see Weber next week, and I can't wait to see Cal Poly again next year in WA Griz! xnodxxthumbsupx

[yosef1969]

I love how a Hornet and Eagle fan are trying to smack us right now. xsmhx xlolx

That's not smack, it's all in your head...at least that's what they keep telling me when other teams are hating on ASU, oh wait I think I dreamed that.;)

[DuckDuckGriz]

See, montana fans have problems with facts...they prefer symbolism over substance.......

You had some facts presented to you which you pleasantly overlooked. I understand your point that Weber beat us head-to-head, and you haven't really heard any Griz fans argue that. We only state that THIS IS WHY the COMMITTEE does this.

If you want to come in here and pop off with sour grapes because you are 0-13 vs Montana than take it to the smack board.

Why am I coming in with sour grapes about SAC's record against um? It is what it is. We have chocked away three good chances in the series that we should have wins, but don't. That is irrelevant here and my season ended last Saturday. We are an up-and-coming program and look forward to finally getting that first victory against the griz next fall at Hornet Stadium.

I hope it comes out different this time around, but either way it should be a great game on Saturday. As many other have stated i wish the best of luck to Weber, but I hope you guys have a smaller number on the scoreboard saturday :D

[cats2506]

Both um and WSU were 1 loss teams in FCS, Weber deserved the seed but the OVERRATED jizz got the seed instead. All year long jizz fans have been saying that it was a fluke, and it was raining ect...... Weber will set the record straight next week, I have no doubt.

It's not just how many you lose but to who and when. The loss last week ended the debate IMO.

I for one have not made that argument. THey beat us straight up. Don't put a general "THOUGHT-TREND" on Griz Nation. But I can say that Pay Back is a BIT like CHess...The rookie always gets taken out.

[uofmman1122]

I guess we'll see in the END of the season who is truly better. Either way, Big Sky will go to semis, that's a great feet by a great conference!

Please find ONE post where someone said it was a fluke.

I bet you will take a while.

This is pretty pathetic.

35-3. Bye now.

jizz fans have been making excuses all year and you know it, Im not gonna waste my time finding post that you conviently are ignoring.

[I Bleed Purple]

I have a question for you. If Montana beats Weber State this time around are you going to keep that picture of the scoreboard in your signature?

Why wouldn't I keep it?

Damn fine picture if you ask me. Damn fine guy that took it, too.

The only reason you feel that Weber should get the home game is because you're bitter.

That's it.

35-3.

Better luck next year.

Just got back from the Weber St - Cal Poly game. Congratulations Wildcats. You deserved to win!

[yosef1969]

Don't bother.

You don't see WSU fans arguing for a seed.

It's just the other bitter fans of other schools.

Gotcha, and I don't wanna take anything away from WSU, they're obviously a very good team. I probably should butt out of BSC feuds anyway, don't know enough about the teams. Just got caught up in the excitement of an opportunity for a back and forth with someone outside of the SoCon or CAA.

Checking the Poly-WSU comments on ESPN has many of 'em. Don't care about 'em all that much, really. Higher amount of fans means higher amounts of idiot fans for that team. I'll leave y'all to figure them out. :D

35-3, though....interesting. Even first string Utah defense couldn't keep us from doing better.

Oh well, no worries, really. It's just the status quo of the post-thanksgiving Bobcat fan.

It's not just how many you lose but to who and when. The loss last week ended the debate IMO.

They certainly weren't a yesbody this year. The steaming pile you left in the middle of your season cost us a seed.

Nope not at all, but a loss to a 6-5 the last game of the regular season is worse than a loss to an 8-3 three or four games into the season in the eyes of the selection committee.

I saw what EWU is capable of last year in KBS, they just didn't meet expectations this season. I don't know the details of why, injuries or other outside factors, but I know they were favorites to challenge for a playoff spot but didn't put it all together for whatever reason.

Fair enough.

Injuries were a big part of it... we were without our starting MLB and a couple others on D for more than a couple games, but when it comes down to it, I think the coaching change really did ****** us over. Baldwin's philosophy is to be an evenly-balanced run/pass team. We're not that. We have two all-star quality receivers (plus 3 more very solid WRs), and a Payton award capable QB... we're a passing team. Do what works, and for us that's passing. Luckily, we have most of our WRs and Matt Nichols back for next year, and a young O-line with a year of experience under their belt.

[I Bleed Purple]

Not to toot my own horn, but...actually I really am tooting my own horn very loudly....Anyway, I said turnovers would be the deciding factor in the game, and lo and behold, it was.

[Green26]

Congrats to Weber. I was wrong in thinking CP would be beat you.

[I Bleed Purple]

I also wish Cap'n Cat wasn't suspended.

Although his predictions seem to the kiss of death, so maybe it's a good thing.

[I Bleed Purple]

Congrats to Weber. I was wrong in thinking CP would be beat you.

And Weber has scored 37 a game since playing Montana. What's your point?

Didn't know the whole story, figured injuries had to play some role. Just remember Nichols and a potent passing attack (and piss poor ASU special teams) but thought with the young talent returning your boys would be a force to be reckoned with. Hope they can get it turned back in the right direction. FCS needs more regional balance, somebody has to take that 4th at large bid out of the hands of the CAA.

[grizband]

It will be the third "cat" opponent in three consecutive weeks for the Grizzlies
IF the Griz win on Saturday, and Nova beats JMU, we could play four in a row.

[slostang]

Congrats to Weber State. What a fantasitc team. Best of luck the rest of the way.

[Throw It To Ramses!!!]

Congrats to Weber St. Never in my three years here at Poly have I ever heard the student section so quiet. The Weber St. band (all 12 that showed up) put out more noise than the Poly fans. The poly defense gave us nothing to cheer about with weber scoring on basically every drive. Would get all rowdy on every third down just to give up a big play and continue moving the chains. Came back to poly early from thanksgiving break just to watch dally have his worst game of his career. It seemed as if every throw he put up was a prayer. Ramses is not our offense, our running game is. We got away from that and that was our downfall. We got behind early and were forced to play throw it to ramses and see wut happens. And wut happened was 4 dally ints and a 49-35 loss.

by the way if it weren't for a (bull****) fumble on the 5 Poly would have lost 56-35.

and our kicker Gardner was 5-5 on pat, freakin kickers

[Throw It To Ramses!!!]

and two thumbs down for our corners this game. One pass deflection all night. Watched our corners give wrs 10 yrd cushions four consecutive third and short. Then get up on the line of scrimmage and NOT JAM the wr at the line and let them run right by them for huge gains. Thought the kicking game was our weak link but damn our pass defense tonight was down right pitiful. Once again congrats Weber, u have me rooting for u to go all the way.

[nmatsen]

I don't know what to say, although it would be easy for me to keep my streak of Poly Hating alive and talk back about how I said they were a bubble team, and how I didn't understand the Poly Love because they were a 7 D-I win team with 1 win over a .500 or better team and look what happens when a quality opponent came to play, I can't. I watched both Weber and Poly play last weekend and I expected this to be the most lop sided game of the day. I honestly expected Poly to put up 60 and have marin of victory of approximately 35-40. Kudo's to Weber, I hope you go into Wa Griz and beat the ***** out of the Grizzlies. Poly fans, you have started to build a tremendous program and I look foward to hating on you next year. PS, go recruit a kicker will you?

sour grapes.

It's not sour grapes at all. The Griz should be traveling to Weber to play that game. I can't even begin to imagine the bitching by griz fans if that was to happen but we all know it won't. I'll be rootingfor Weber.

Honestly. Weber State had a golden ticket to a seed, and they couldn't beat Eastern Washington. Don't get mad at Montana or the Committee. That falls square on Weber's shoulders. If they deserved it so bad, they would have won that game.

It's completely sour grapes. xcoffeex

Thanks for the love, but our destiny was in our own hands. The Wildcats gifted Montana the seed and home field advantage by losing to Eastern Washington. Now we've got to beat 'em at their house. No problem, if the same lads show up in Missoula next weekend who showed up at San Luis Obispo. xsmiley_wix

A victory is in our grasp, if we do not gift the Grizz again. Our destiny is once again in our own hands. xnodx

The loss to EWU was probably good for our relatively young and inexperienced team. ...probably good for our coaching staff, too! The defensive play calling was far superior against Cal Poly last night, compared to the uninspiring sleep walk against EWU. xrotatehx

[Native]

You'd think on film they've seen how open Smith is on that play.


The problem for opponents is that Weber has 7-8 offensive threats, not just 2-3, like most teams. xnodx

Key on Smith, ball goes to Toone. Key on Toone, ball goes to Mike Phillips. Key on Mike, ball goes... great coverage everywhere and Higgins is open to run for a first down.

You get the picture. xsmiley_wix

[Native]

How do you leave Toone that open? TD Weber!


You don't "leave" Tim Toone wide open. He "leaves" you behind!

[MaxASU'81]

Gotta love a team who plays to the last second.

We are getting beat up on the right coast for scoring late against SCSU!...and it was after their coach called 2 straight timeouts with less than 25 seconds left on the clock down 10.

Go APPSxcoolx

[MaxASU'81]

We played at Cal Poly this year and we play at Davis next year.

Davis, Davis?....Davis????

I think the coaches took the students' advice too much. I still don't get why they stopped running the ball, it was working great.

I agree. The running game was working and the best part is if you are running the ball you are eating the clock and keeping Weber's offense on the sideline and we definately needed to keep them on the sideline as much as possible.

Yeah just what I was thinking. Too much forcing the ball in the passing game. You guys had the game in control when the ball was on the ground.

[Native]

My heart goes out to our kicker. Gardiner's has gotta have his head spinning right now

What the heck are all the Poly fans whining about? xconfusedx

Gardiner finished tied for fifteenth in the nation for kick scoring points. xthumbsupx

Sure, he does not have the greatest range, but he was a respectable 70% in the red zone which is where the kickers really count. Anything outside the red zone is gravy. If you are having to make a lot of kicks from outside the red zone, then the kicker is not really the problem, eh?!??

He's solely responsible for both of CP's losses in the regular season... PAT's and FGs from the redzone that were missed.

He'd probably be first or second in the nation for kick scoring points if he made all of his...

He missed a 27 yard field goal which is 7 yards longer than a PAT to NOT win versus Montana and three PATs (20 yards) versus Wisconsin. If he made just one of those PATs in Wisconsin during the game there would not have been the opportunity to miss a PAT in overtime -- the Mustangs would have won in regulation.

Andrew Gardner did come back and put five straight PATs down the middle versus Weber State in the first round of the playoffs.

I was actually thinking about this the other day. Let's say he makes all his kicks and Poly goes undefeated. They would be the #1 seed, who would Poly have played? If everything else went the same way, I see exactly the same matchups. UM probably would not have been seeded, but they would have played Tx. St since they could not play Weber in the 1st and Weber most likely would have had to travel to Poly still. Tough luck all around.

Seems to me that the opponents would have had a good chance of being reversed. Texas State would have still had to travel but instead to Cal Poly and Montana would end up with the perceived tougher opponent Weber State.

I saw every one of his misses and there were no major problems with the holder getting the snap down.
