They looked awful when I watched them earlier. They have some good players at certain positions but they cannot put those pieces together. Losing Vander Waal hurts them a lot.

Yes they are. There is going to be lots of 2nd half tailgating at homecoming this year.

I included the ISU UNC game in my list of games to watch this week to see who is the worst team in the BSC

Yes
Agree. I think the betting line on UM vs ISU is like 40 points or something........ I might take UM to cover more than that.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

Last year Idaho State also sucked and was 0-4 yet still managed to beat a 5-0 UC Davis squad in Pocatello.
ISU is 0-4 this year and they are playing an undefeated gris team. So, there is that.

Seems like if the gris got called for targeting that the one against Tommy would also fit the bill?

Idaho State is beating the best team in the nation right now in the 2nd quarter. They can't be that bad!

Has Morhinweg always been such a tool?

ISU doing some good things, but threw an INT that really hurt.

Griz did not look good. Griz defense did not look like the 85 Bears. 28-20 final. ISU could have actually won if they eliminated some mistakes.

Weird game. UM could’ve ran away in the second half, but then again ISU could’ve ended up winning. Both teams had some good luck and bad breaks.

Anyone know why Hauck put Brown in the game for Johnson at QB?

Because Johnson fumbled the ball away in the red zone, trying to reach for the pylon. Bobby has a strict rule that you get benched if that happens, regardless of who you are. Plus, he was playing like crap frankly.

Hmm, I can't imagine what kind of play could have possibly led to Bobby getting upset about red zone fumbles to the point of benching players for them...
