Who is Troy Andersen tied with for career TDs vs. UM?

No idea...ryan Johnson? Just a guess

Would likely be Chris Murray or Isaiah Ifanse.

None of those.

I noticed an error regarding McKay’s stats. He is credited with 10 touchdown passes on both msubobcats and the Big Sky website but I’m pretty sure he has thrown 11. Looking at the box score on msubobcats they credited Andrew Patterson with a 44 yard catch in the Northern Colorado game but no touchdown. Just wondering if anyone knows a way to get this corrected.

Yeah, I noticed that too. There are lots of errors throughout a season. I feel like this is a manual process with no review procedures in place, so there are bound to be human errors.

I keep my own tallies and have a system in place to verify data and many times I'm at odds with the official stats.

What they should do is add up everything from the play by play and if it doesn't agree with the totals, then track down the source of the error and fix.

Better work on that system a little more. McKay had 11, Rovig 1, and Bauman 1 through five games. McKay now has 13 through six games.

No, he threw a few. But we're talking rushing TDs.

[TomCat88]

Ifanse actually had 66 yards against Drake, but he's only credited with 60. On that play where he fumbled into the end zone and Ryan Davis fell on it he's officially scored with a carry of zero yards. The down and yardage was 2nd and 6. He carried it all the way to the end zone before losing the ball, so he's getting gypped out of 6 yards. I know it's not a huge number, but it could be important at the end of the year.

I think you're mostly right about that. He couldn't have carried it all the way to the end zone or he would've been credited with a TD. I think he should get five yards though. He may have carried all the way to the 1/2 inch line, but official scoring can only give him to the 1-yard line. Play started at the DRA06. So probably should have 65 yards total for the game.

I've made an inquiry and it'll get looked at, at some point. Probably not real soon.

I thought it was the Iron Tumbleweed.

Don Hass is always a good guess when it comes to rushing stuff with MSU.

That's true, but Hass had four TDs at most. He may have two in '65. He had no more than one in '66. He had one in '67. This is according to a snapshot of all games printed in the Chronicle. We have something in the system at the IR that has more details, but I think we can eliminate Hass.

**mslacatfan** I think you put that on the list. Do you know what it was? It wasn't Paul Schafer or Ryan Johnson,

I just got that info from those Sunday notebook game recaps that MSU releases. So that’s all it said at the time....

soooo, its 13? is this confirmed? the MSU website says 12...… I will change the front page to 13 I guess... Why is it so difficult for MSU to correctly track this stuff. This is pretttty basic math we are talking about, like 1+2+2+1, and so on.... Isn't MSU an engineering school?

I was referring to the Ifanse carry, not McKay or anyone Cowboycat mentioned. Sorry for not making that more clear.
My system remains intact.

Where on the website are you reading this? By my count McKay has thrown for two TDs in each game except one. He had three in that one.

I don’t see Ifanse mentioned in your post I quoted, so that’s probably why I thought you were talking about McKay. He’s the only one mentioned in the quoted post.

I addressed your post about the Ifanse carry in your post about that.

Okay. I see it now. Good eye. It’s being looked at.

It’s actually fixed, but a new XML? needs to be uploaded to the website.

UM's Murdo Campbell, who just passed away about a year ago, ran for at least four and threw for two back in the mid-50s. He's my good friend's uncle. They put the Brawl of the Wild flyer in the paper every year and it has a couple paragraphs from each game. Pat Kearney's book "Divide War" might also be a good source for Cat-Griz Game records.

Mslacat, any idea on team interceptions in a season? We already have 11 in 6 games and so is have to think we’re up there at the half way point of this year. Man have they been momentum swingers on D!

Record for team INTs is 29. 10th is 19. MSU has 11 so far, so that #1 spot is gonna be tough to get to, but top ten is attainable.

Do they keep track of interceptions returned for a touchdown. We've had more pick six's than I can remember in a while.

They don't.

Thanks for checking into it.
