USD @ gris

[ilovethecats]

I could only imagine Cat fans if they were winning 30 something to seven, then the refs just give them a touchdown by not calling somebody down after there was a whistle, I’m sure nobody would complain, right? LoL be real you guys are acting like pussies

They reviewed it. Wasn't down and no whistle. Cats went on a 7 minute drive to ice game, ran Lamson up gut to eat clock, got ball back next possession and took a knee. Doesn't matter if it's 4th string guy, take a knee and win gracefully.

Nah. You run the statue of liberty or wide receiver passes when up a couple tds late in the 4th. Putting in backups and taking a knee is for teams that run up the score…..

Are you suggesting if you are up by two scores or more football teams should just be nice and not keep scoring. Specially against good teams in the playoffs that are capable of comebacks? Jesus dude, just step back and take a look at what you’re upset about

What would I be upset about? I’ve seen enough Hauck coached griz squads over the years. I find it funny though, that griz fans were talking about the cats running up the score every time we scored a lot of points with our 2nd and 3rd string. Then I watch the griz play. lol. You guys were up 23 points after USD turned it over with like 2 minutes to go. Will you just take a knee, shake hands and move on? Of course not. Run 4 more plays and score again to go up 30.

I’m all for it. If that’s what you need to do to feel like you have some momentum going to Bozeman it’s all good by me. Nothing to be upset about on my end. I’ve seen griz fans make excuses for Hauck for like 20 years so it’s not making me lose sleep.

Just so I’m clear, when you were up 23 at home with little time remaining were you also afraid your opponent was going to come back?

You’re usually a very reasonable poster. I can’t believe how wrong you have this one. It was the fourth string running back. They had run the ball several times in a row. It’s not like the other team didn’t know exactly what was coming. If they can’t make the ****** stop on a true freshman who plays fourth string running back and he takes it to the house then that is on them. I can’t believe this is even a discussion. I don’t care what the score is or what the scenario is, if you can score a touchdown with your fourth string, true freshman for everyone to celebrate then more power to you.

Appreciate that hooked. I just don't see how I'm "wrong" about anything. You guys literally had a 23point lead with less than two minutes to play and USD out of timeouts? I'd say almost all teams just kneel it a couple times there.

Be honest. If the Cats did the EXACT same thing with the same score and same time on the clock we'd just be "running up the score" again.

Hell, the Cats didn't even do that to the griz in the Mecca when we were running with ease to end the game....

Options for the griz in this scenario:

1. Kneel down. Turn ball back to SD with less than a minute to go. Defense has to go back out on the field.
2. Kick meaningless field goal. Turn ball back to SD with less than a minute to go. Defense has to go back out on the field.
3. Run a bland boring run up the middle for 4th string running back and backup offense. Might get first down and then can kneel down to end game or don't make it and its a turn over on downs with less than minute to go. Turns into a touchdown because SD couldn't tackle.

Option 3 was the best option to shorten the game, it just turned into a touchdown. the whining going on here is just absolutely bonkers. I love the ****** talking between the rivalry but this is a really stupid hill to die on.

No whining highline. You guys do you. Just funny coming from a fanbase claiming the Cats were running up the score all season. We didn't even score on the griz late in the brawl despite you guys knowing we were running every down and not being able to stop us. Just different mindsets is all.

[Joe Bobcat]

I've heard from numerous Griz fans that don't like Hauck at all and in fact it was a friend of mine who is a former Griz player long before Bobby's time who suggested that Bobby is deranged and therefore should be considered to be Hauck derangement syndrome case #1. My friend isn't a psychiatrist, but he is a Dr. and has never led me astray with any of his medical advice.

So yeah Bobby is Hauck derangement syndrome case # 1. It should make him happy to be #1 at something.

Why is it so hard for you to admit that Hauck ran up the score? Own it. It’s Bobby Ball and will make MSU kicking his ass on Saturday evening sweeter. He’s an original Chode since his days as ball manager for the Gris. He’s perfect for you non-grads.

No one, and I mean no one, has more Hauck Derangement Syndrome on this site than you and that is saying a lot because there is a ton of it over here. I’m almost worried about some of you. Maybe it’s worth talking to somebody. Maybe show them on the doll where Bobby hurt you?

I have reasons for it and have been in situations with him in person multiple times to form my opinion. Don’t like him. He is not a gracious person, might be on the spectrum more than less, and has this arrogance that seems undeserved to me considering he’s just a football coach in Missoula. You’re not running Nike, Bobby.

You PeytonLives, wave Pom-poms and run the worst fan forum in FCS, if not FBS.

I notice you didn’t defend running up the score. Saturday is what matters. South Dakota won’t be playing. The Montana State Bobcats, a better team than the Gris, will be there as will 20,000+ of us alumni/fans.

Did you even watch it? Why don’t you break down all that led to that last TD. Start with the other team calling a Timeout with just over 2 mins to stop the clock before the two minute warning. Then finish with the fact it was 4th and a couple yards and that kneeling on it wouldn’t even run out the clock, would give the ball to the other team, and send the Griz D back on the field. No coach in the world is going to kneel there and say here you take the ball back and force us to play more defense where one of my guys could get hurt. Man I’m starting to understand how your campus buildings collapsed from snow with this kind of expertise in and around Bozeman

You do realize that kneeling on the last play, a 4th and 3 from the 20, would have given the ball back to USD with 35 seconds still on the clock. This means you have to trot your defense back on the field and risk an injury. No coach in America is going to kneel a 4th and 3 that gives the ball back to the other team with time on the clock. This is elementary stuff and I’m kinda shocked so many over here are struggling with this concept. You’re supposed to be a knowledgeable fan base….or so I’m told

If you didn't want to run up the score like the Cats apparently did all season; couldn't you have kneeled and trotted out your 3rd or 4th string defense? That eliminates injury. If you didn't want to run up the score like the Cats did all season, couldn't you rb just slide after the first down? I've seen that done plenty.

If the answer to that is it's your 3rd string rb and the defense should be able to stop them; then I think that negates all the nonsense "Cats run up the score" crap we've had to listen to all season.

I see eye to eye with you on a lot of things. But lets just call this what it is. A smart coach in Hauck who knows he's the messiah, doing whatever it takes to show his followers big points to get them to believe they are this incredible offense going into Bozeman. Regardless of what we saw a few weeks ago. I don't blame him. He knows what he has over there. Anyone with a pulse knew just what he was doing. In the last two games we saw the statue of liberty when the game was out of reach, we saw a wide receiver pass when the game was out of reach, and we saw an unnecessary td up 23 with less than a minute to go.

He's got your fans believing that that is GOOD! Part of the job as a head coach. Cat fans see right through it.

Remind us what USD did with about 30 seconds left on the clock when they got the ball back?

Regardless, a smart coach tells his players to down themselves after they get a first in that situation. Then they can kneel it out. Scoring a TD does the same thing for your defense as kneeling it you intellectual nitwit.

I find it funny though, that griz fans were talking about the cats running up the score every time we scored a lot of points with our 2nd and 3rd string. Then I watch the griz play. lol. You guys were up 23 points after USD turned it over with like 2 minutes to go. Will you just take a knee, shake hands and move on? Of course not. Run 4 more plays and score again to go up 30.

I’m all for it. If that’s what you need to do to feel like you have some momentum going to Bozeman it’s all good by me. Nothing to be upset about on my end. I’ve seen griz fans make excuses for Hauck for like 20 years so it’s not making me lose sleep.

Just so I’m clear, when you were up 23 at home with little time remaining were you also afraid your opponent was going to come back?

You’re usually a very reasonable poster. I can’t believe how wrong you have this one. It was the fourth string running back. They had run the ball several times in a row. It’s not like the other team didn’t know exactly what was coming. If they can’t make the ****** stop on a true freshman who plays fourth string running back and he takes it to the house then that is on them. I can’t believe this is even a discussion. I don’t care what the score is or what the scenario is, if you can score a touchdown with your fourth string, true freshman for everyone to celebrate then more power to you.

Appreciate that hooked. I just don't see how I'm "wrong" about anything. You guys literally had a 23point lead with less than two minutes to play and USD out of timeouts? I'd say almost all teams just kneel it a couple times there.

Be honest. If the Cats did the EXACT same thing with the same score and same time on the clock we'd just be "running up the score" again.

Hell, the Cats didn't even do that to the griz in the Mecca when we were running with ease to end the game....

You do realize that kneeling on the last play, a 4th and 3 from the 20, would have given the ball back to USD with 35 seconds still on the clock. This means you have to trot your defense back on the field and risk an injury. No coach in America is going to kneel a 4th and 3 that gives the ball back to the other team with time on the clock. This is elementary stuff and I’m kinda shocked so many over here are struggling with this concept. You’re supposed to be a knowledgeable fan base….or so I’m told

If you didn't want to run up the score like the Cats apparently did all season; couldn't you have kneeled and trotted out your 3rd or 4th string defense? That eliminates injury. If you didn't want to run up the score like the Cats did all season, couldn't you rb just slide after the first down? I've seen that done plenty.

If the answer to that is it's your 3rd string rb and the defense should be able to stop them; then I think that negates all the nonsense "Cats run up the score" crap we've had to listen to all season.

I see eye to eye with you on a lot of things. But lets just call this what it is. A smart coach in Hauck who knows he's the messiah, doing whatever it takes to show his followers big points to get them to believe they are this incredible offense going into Bozeman. Regardless of what we saw a few weeks ago. I don't blame him. He knows what he has over there. Anyone with a pulse knew just what he was doing. In the last two games we saw the statue of liberty when the game was out of reach, we saw a wide receiver pass when the game was out of reach, and we saw an unnecessary td up 23 with less than a minute to go.

He's got your fans believing that that is GOOD! Part of the job as a head coach. Cat fans see right through it.

Holy ******, I see the Hauck derangement syndrome is starting to spread over here to some of the normal folks! Yeah, the coach knew 100% that our fourth string running back was going to score from the 20 yard line on a fourth and three after running it in the same gap three other times in a row. That happens all the time .

I could only imagine Cat fans if they were winning 30 something to seven, then the refs just give them a touchdown by not calling somebody down after there was a whistle, I’m sure nobody would complain, right? LoL be real you guys are acting like pussies

They reviewed it. Wasn't down and no whistle. Cats went on a 7 minute drive to ice game, ran Lamson up gut to eat clock, got ball back next possession and took a knee. Doesn't matter if it's 4th string guy, take a knee and win gracefully.

Nah. You run the statue of liberty or wide receiver passes when up a couple tds late in the 4th. Putting in backups and taking a knee is for teams that run up the score…..

Hey, I'll ask again since you ignored me the first time.

What did USD do when they got the ball left with 30 seconds? You know, because you were worried the defense might get more snaps and somebody would get hurt?

And remind me why a coach wouldn't tell a player to get the first and then down himself? Just curious.

You're making it more than it is Hooked. I'm used to Bobby so is what it is. I'll just concede and say that the Cats ran up the score all year and the griz would never do such a thing. They certainly wouldn't score unnecessary touchdowns to rack up a bunch of points suggesting that their offense is certainly firing on all cylinders.

Question though. After the offense scored that td to finally give you a safe cushion of 30 points, I assumed you kicked off and then presumably a defense came back on the field right? Was that the same defense or a much different defense that would have came on the field had you just kneeled? I didn't pay enough attention I guess.

Does the 4th quarter count as the cats just running up the score? The pick 6 was kinda of excessive and maybe should have kneeled it at the 1

Would have been 54/55 points had the fumble been called correctly or reviewed.

I won’t get on their players other than Ah Yat crumbled after doing his SHUSH to the crowd after their go-ahead TD.
