Did they announce who's starting the second half?

Perfect, that's prime cut smack right there...

Apparently they won't have captains for the season but will select them game by game. Very on brand.

Perfectly fitting for Transfer U. Could be team captain one week, but if you cross Beavis and hurt his feelers, you'll be kicked to the curb.

Narcissistic turd.

The seniors voted for this and it’s also the same process the 1995 championship team used to select their captains.

Hey guys, it worked 30 years ago! We're not doing it because a majority of the team is transfers and redshirts and there aren't enough clear leaders to be named captains, we're doing it because once upon a time a team that won the championship also happened to do it!

I posted this response in the Moving on to the Bunnies thread then realized we don't to much up that thread with a bunch of Dark Pink talk, so re posting it here:

Totally agree that is one of the easiest schedules I can remember. I suppose a top level DII team like Central Washington cold give them a scare (remember Ferris State?), and maybe Indiana State, but highly unlikely either of those two teams will beat them. Playing at Idaho State could be tricky too. But, realistically, Idaho, UND, at Sac, and MSU will be their only real challenges. I predict they are 10-1 heading into the Brawl.

Based on what? Not trying to be contrarian its just when you do predictions on teams prior to a season there are factors you consider. Recent past history, returning experience, coaching acumen and yes, ease or strength of schedule. Only one of these is a positive for the griz. They went to the natty but they've finished closer to middle top-half of the conference more as of late. That team that wen to the Natty had a ton of returning experience. And BH has shown every season, even the one that they went to Frisco in, a lack of any ability to manage the QB situation.

We really have no idea what the talent level of this team is. Sure Colter says they look great but that's on the practice field. They could be Nashville level or they could be 5th in the conference again. So much of that team is a complete unknown entity. Anyone saying they know for sure is lying.

Did you have the griz losing at home to Weber last season? Or losing to NAU the year before? They are a team built from transfers. Teams built similarly are UIW who lost in week 0 and dang near lost to EWU Saturday. Or Sac St who got dominated by SDSU. The history of teams built this way at this level just isn't great but that's what I'm goin off of and it's starting to be enough of a sample size. Griz this year are 3rd to 5th in the conference, make the playoffs and are bubble top 8 seed team. Get drilled the moment they have to leave Wagriz and play a good team. That's a prediction that's safe because its what has happened every season since 2019 save one.

According to this article the Griz brought in 21 D1 Transfers. South Dakota has also brought in 21. South Dakota State 17. Tarleton looks good and brought in 15. I’m not sure if bringing in a high number of transfers translates into good or bad, yet.

They brought in a few starters and depth pieces. They aren't relying on transfers for the bulk of their entire team at least in the case of SDSU. I'm not as familiar with USD's roster. Bringing in transfers to fill out 75%+ of your starters is bad. That is pretty objective at this point.

Sac State is a good example.

Did anyone also notice Bobby doing Bobby things and whining about how Central Washington supposedly did not agree to give them game tape from last weekend? Would it really be that hard to find a replay of that game if they wanted? What a baby.

They probably said "we'll give you our game tape if you give us yours".

I'd be shocked if anyone could find a replay of two D2 teams playing. If Bobbi really needs tape to beat them he should be watching Cat-griz from the couch this year.

Central Washington lost to San Diego 26-7 last year.

Central Washington uses FloSports to stream their games. All of their games are available on the site. Took about 2 minutes to find CW’s game from this year. Bobby is such whiner.
