Your right. The griz O could not convert against a bad ISU D.

It's all about dollars, and the Griz are in the enviable position to call the shots. Why would UM pay to travel anywhere (other than a payday DI-A game) when they can play at home, make their fans happy, and rake in a huge home gate? However, with that said, I have no doubt that now that the deficit is all but paid off, you'll see UM begin to travel more, and you'll see them return to places like Maine and Hofstra, and probably, Poly (assuming Ellerson doesn't burn that bridge first).

Which makes so much less sense than putting up the $$ to have your team stay in a hotel for a home game.STREETCAT wrote:GrizinWashington wrote:Back to the original POS posting, if you think for a moment that the Griz do not play Poly in SLO because they are afraid, you're either (a) mentally handicapped, (b) a complete moron, or (c) viewing life through blue and gold glasses.

Doubt you ever go back to maine after blowing double your budget on travel and rooms.
I stand correct, Noble was a complete non-factor.

Funny coming from a team that is afraid to play them!!!94VegasCat wrote:http://www.greatfallstribune.com/apps/p ... /611020326
I thought that the last little bit of this article was the best. Coach Ellerson points out that the griz won't play the Mustangs in San Luis Obispo. He doesn't think that the series will last much longer with lack of desire on the part of um to go to CP SLO.
chicken sh!ts is what I think. Even though we will all hear about how much financial sense does it make for the griz to go on the road when wagriz will make XX dollars. chicken sh!ts is what I think.
Not scheduling a team for a couple of seasons is not "being afraid of them." They do not play in our conference, so we won't be playing them every year, plain and simple. I would get sick of having a schedule in which we played the same exact out-of-conference teams every season... although that would be better than seeing Ft. Lewis and Southern Utah on the schedule for next year.Eastcoastgriz wrote:Funny coming from a team that is afraid to play them!!!94VegasCat wrote:http://www.greatfallstribune.com/apps/p ... /611020326

To be fair holding ISU's offense down in Missoula is not the same as holding them down in Pocatello, apples and oranges man.To be fair, we did hold ISU's offense to 92 total yards, our offense couldn't convert in the red zone.
You need to go back and look at all the post last time the cats played the Mustangs. The cats are absolutely afraid to play the Mustangs!!!BozoneCat wrote:Not scheduling a team for a couple of seasons is not "being afraid of them."Eastcoastgriz wrote:
