The dream is that they do just enough to make the playoffs, win one game, and never fire Bobby.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
Agree 100% except the griz are 6th in the conference, not 5th. I will first say I don’t think UCD should get in - the selection committee seems to just reverse engineer to their liking and certainly by the at-large stage they pretty much just pick anybody they want which leads to obviously ridiculous selections. The process as is makes me think some sort of computer selection (at least for the at-large selections
Might be the way to go. Auto-bids are a simple rule (other than some crazy “coin-flip” with smoke going up). I hope the griz get rolled, mostly due to my dislike of Hauck.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
He would have most definitely would've been better than Brown in the Weber and Sac St. game. I believe that he would lead us to the win in the Sac. St. game but I'm not sure about Weber. The Sac St. game went into overtime and could have easily won that with a capable backup qb.

With that logic, Sean Austin is the best QB the Bobcats have.1890Griz wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 2:05 pmHe would have most definitely would've been better than Brown in the Weber and Sac St. game.

Again, you’ve never seen Britt in meaningful action. I’m sure he is better than Brown, but I’m also pretty sure if it was a significant amount better, he’d never have been behind Brown. Most coaches don’t deliberately and continually play the lesser player.

Which makes it even more ridiculous that the griz got in. They lost every single time they played a decent team including Idaho in Missoula.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
Congrats to Washington - Griz stadium, griz fans who buy playoff tickets and griz history. You made it to the playoffs this year.
When I say you made the playoffs I mean it. You are the reason that the team is going. That team in any other uniform or stadium is starting their offseason program today.
Hope they prove everyone wrong and make a deep run. But if they get boat raced in week one, it might be time for the NCAA selection committee to stop living in the past and making decision based on ticket sales.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
Like I said in another thread, the committee put the Griz in just to verify whether they can actually beat a team with a winning record.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
After the Weber St. performance he got moved up to 2nd string, because he is way better than KB. Took the coaching staff a while to realize Brown was going nowhere and Britt is way better.91catAlum wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 2:30 pmYep that's why he's your 3rd string QB, cuz he's better than your 2nd string1890Griz wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 2:05 pmHe would have most definitely would've been better than Brown in the Weber and Sac St. game.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
Let's say Portland State goes 5-0 against subpar teams then loses 4 of 6 to finish 7-4, 4-4. Does their name even come up in the selection committee discussion? No.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
KB is not good, but announcing Britt as a capable replacement is fools gold. Has Britt taken one single meaningful snap this year with the game in question? It appears that he has only played in garbage time against MSU, EWU and Cal Poly.1890Griz wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 3:28 pmAfter the Weber St. performance he got moved up to 2nd string, because he is way better than KB.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
It was the same for us with Mellot last season, we stuck with McKay for way to long and it cost us the Brawl. I'd say there is more upside and opportunity playing Britt, Brown has shown he cannot get the job done (nothing against him, I just feel he is a poor fit for their offensive system, or rather they have a trash OC). He seems to have a similar skill set to Tommy, giving him a shot couldn't hurt at this point, it worked for us it may work for the Griz.Cataholic wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 3:43 pmKB is not good, but announcing Britt as a capable replacement is fools gold.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
So now Brown goes in the portal and leaves the gris with no backup. Then bobby goes out to try and locate another best ever to play qb. Curious but aren't the gris to be fairly slim at OL next year. Poor qb gets mauled next year???Utcatsfan wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 4:33 pmIt was the same for us with Mellot last season, we stuck with McKay for way to long and it cost us the Brawl.

Re: No way the Griz should be in the playoffs
Swap Portland for the Cats. If we had the same record last year going into Cat- Griz as the gris did this year, and got the beat down we did, NO WAY we would have made the playoffs. Total gris bias and chasing the cash. In addition to them getting an ESPN broadcast as well. Makes me mad.
