JMU Vs UM Friday Night

Post by catatac » Wed Dec 08, 2021 11:47 am

Might not belong here but I think there's a good chance the Cats would meet up with the winner here if we can make it to Frisco. We know the Griz are good, and JMU looks pretty damn good. Their QB Cole Johnson is legit, check out the tape from Saturday's game. 37 TDs, 2 INTs on the season. :shock: That's Trey Lance-ish. I think the Dukes win this one by 7 points.



Great time to be a BOBCAT!

I think the Griz are the fourth best team in their bracket. They won’t continue to win on special teams and other teams misfortunes. Plus um isn’t a good road team. Dukes will blow out um. 41-10.

That’s their game plan, manage the ball on offense and sell out to force mistakes on defense and special teams. If you’re not prepared for it, they’re gonna punch you in the mouth. I think JMU is the best team the Griz have played and I think their QB will handle the blitz well like I believe EB did for most of their game. Difference is Johnson has a team around him, unlike EB 😉

It’s crazy how good they look, and they’ve been hit with the injury bug all season, think I read they’ve lost to season ending injuries like 3 offensive lineman their original starting RB a WR a DB. They’re gonna be similar to an EWU offense but with a better Weber defense and special teams.

This is gonna be a great game. The griz are playing much better as of late. If this game were a month ago, I would pick JMU by three scores. But the griz have found their mo-jo. I still think JMU wins, but's it gonna be in a barn-burner.

JMU - 38, griz - 34

It’ll be a good game for sure. I just think it’s going to have a same feel as the last EWU game, but instead of EWU having to go for it on 4th downs, JMU actually has FG kicker and a punter that can help them out and I think that’ll be the difference in JMU winning and not EWU. Still agree it’ll be close, no more than a 10 point win.

The Griz beat a banged up MSU with a flat-lining QB with some huge miscues by MSU and gave up 41 points at home to EWU and a QB playing on 1.5 legs.

UM was 4-1 on the road this year with a win at Washington and a one-score loss at EWU. They are a far, far superior team to ETSU on that side of the bracket and at least an equal to JMU IMHO. This is going to be a difficult game for them, but I think they win it.

I remain skeptical about teams from the CAA plus SHSU. We know the Big Sky and the MVFC were tough this year. As for JMU's playoff game, former MSU QB Farhaad Azimi could put up 250 yards passing against that SELA defense...and he must be at least 40 years old by now.

Hilarious! They beat Idaho, NAU, Cal Poly and No. Colorado. I think you’re being superstitious or something. Afraid to pick against the Griz because you might jinx the other team. The UW win is about as meaningful as the near loss to SUU.

And whoever posted this for the tennis team must be a um grad. Unbelievably stupid. Screw it up once, okay. Twice, unforgivable.

Hey, give 'em a break. I just don't think they were done yet. I'm sure they were in the process of stamping out "Go Griswold" as a tribute to Clark Griswold in Christmas Vacation. :)

What’s funny is that if UW beats UM like they should have, SUU makes that field goal, and the Cats actually show up to play……UM might not even be in the playoffs. I see this game being close for the first half, but JMU comes out the second and puts them away. 45-21

And it’s spelled out for them on the fence. Unreal. I may just have to refer to them as the gris from now on.

Also want to point out the fact they only scored one offensive touchdown against the Cats, and EWU probably has the worst special teams of anyone in the Big Sky.
