An interesting post on one of the Griz boards:
-----------------------------------------------------
The last time the Griz posted 3 shut outs in one season (playoffs included) occured in 1970. Care to guess which was one of those three teams?
-----------------------------------------------------
Hmm... maybe a record-breaking season after all!

FUNNY :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The sad thing is, nothing about the post has anything worth responding to. BTW: What place are we in? And Who controls our destiny? 8-[ 8-[

That's what I thought? The Friz are waiting to see WHAT WE DO... :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :P :P :P :P

Don't you mean that LooLay is... well, to use your term, "great"? That appears to be about it.

Not that it matters, but even if the score had truly been only 9-0, that would still have been a wider margin than the Cats beat NAU by...

We looked way better. The griz caught a couple lucky breaks in the game which basically deflated any hopes the ljacks had of upsetting a ranked team.

1. For Example blocked FG returned for touchdown
2. Underhanded toss up by marietta to reciever who basically set the ball in the hands of a griz LB.

Where I live, it's pretty much impossible to get BSC games, so I obviously didn't see either game (and thus, everything I write on this thread is purely smack talk and should be taken in good humor). However, on a slightly serious note, why is it that big special teams and defensive plays are always painted by opposing fans as "lucky?" Granted, the Griz offense had a terrible day on Saturday, but why are a blocked FG returned for a TD and an int returned for a TD automatically "lucky" plays? Cat fans talked about this last year after our wins against EWU and ISU too, but the fact of the matter is that blocking a FG is not easy, and returning an interception 42 yards for a TD is no easier than taking a short pass 42 yards, so why is one a lucky play and not the other?

You made a great point in that you did not watch the game.

A diving interception should be heralded, or even one where the DB makes a great play on the ball. However, when the reciever basically volleyball sets the ball to the griz LB. C'mon

And if a blocked FG is returned for a TD every game or once every ten games, or once every 50 games, or once every 100 games, or once every .... Then I wouldn't consider it lucky. My point is it doesn't happen as often as a 43 yard pass.

You shouldn't have responded unless you had seen the game.
I don't hold it against you, understanding that you don't get the games in your neck of the woods.
