I hope this is a wake up call for Vigen. It was not for Ash. Vigen needs to make some hard decisions on O before our playoff game.
Ash was a nice guy but he was here far too long. Vigen is eerily mirroring his tenure.
I think many forget the bad years before Denarius got here. Hopefully Vigen can find his DMac. If you would've told me we would be 9-2 at the start of the season I would probably have been thrilled.

Sac state gonna win the championship. Sucks
Can’t say the Cats deserve to share it after today. They’re lucky they’ll have a seed tomorrow
Yes, not gonna win BSC. But they will get a seed. Still ending up 9-2; one FCS loss to a Top 10 ranked team. Just because it was the last game, doesn't change the facts on the ground. But won't be a good seed. Especially after a really poor performance. Top 3 seeds are SHSU, JMU and NDSU, all big winners today. #4 could go to EWU, Sac, Nova or even Griz. Big Sky could get 4 seeds even if we all don't think the Cats are worthy. Guess we will see


I'm saying 1 SHSU 2 NDSU 3 JMU the Cats drop to 8, and the Griz move up to 4. Nova 5, Eastern 6 Sac State 7.
Might be. I think EWU might get ahead of Griz due to head to head win. But hard to say - Sac beat Griz; Griz beat Cats; Cats beat EWU; EWU beats Griz. All end up 9-2. Suppose they just flip a coin or go with who is doing better at the end?
Because they're the griz and they just dominated the #3 team in the country, wheras all the other wins by us, Eastern and sac have been close, I think they jump everyone but the 1 loss teams.

Ash would not have beat a ranked team. I don’t like Vigen, haven’t since the beginning. Think he is a pushover and doesn’t have the fire Chot has but he has done far better than I expected this year.

Not even a radio broadcast. Maybe Housewright cut off power to the stadium and took off running.

Looks like Okada has a shoulder or arm injury.

Yeah, and Choate had Matt Miller. Ferrari VS Volkswagen bug if you’re looking at Miller VS Housewright. Development and usage may have been VERY different.

I predicted 21-10 fizz but this was a beating.

After the horrible play calling in the Idaho game and seeing it was the exact same through the 1st quarter; I knew the Cats were toast.

This L is completely on the offensive play calling.

So like Choate would say "Stats are for losers" I am a stats man - we won TOP; we held the Griz to under 300 total yards; we outrushed them; won the turnover battle..... but we lost. Just like against ISU where we lost all the stats and won the game. So I will agree with Choate on this one. Stats make it look closer but it was not close. We were not in the game in the second half. And barely in the game in the 2nd quarter. Maybe we can Wright the Ship in two weeks but doubt it. We will go with what got us here. Might be able to pound a poorer defense in our first game then facing NDSU, JMU, SDSU, SHSU, EWU, Sac or UM (if seeds all win) and none of those defenses are slouches.

I agree too predictable and if it keeps up we are toast. We didn't start throwing to tight ends until the 4th quarter. Really!

Absolutely. He needs a bonafide QB


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

This team can be better and hope the coaches have the balls to make changes before the playoffs.

Yeah, not a way to endear yourself the BN faithful. If he didn’t know the significance of this game, then he better get it now.
I’m telling you guys McKay is not the answer, nor is the OC, and he is not team player. Really bad attitude and work ethic. If your a coach for MSU, why not play Tommy or Rovig at this point. I would say Bauman, but I haven’t seen him on the sidelines for awhile.


If your left, you aren’t right.

Bauman is injured or was most of the season. The OC play calling and o line play today was horrendous too. I can’t put it all on McKay but he was not a Div 1 player today.

Cats better hit the portal for some o-lineman for next year too.

I don’t think McKay has played well all year. I also believe he is our worst athlete at the position. He isn’t fast, runs the rpo poorly, and get rattled. Our OC does not put him in good positions either. Our o line just isn’t dominant either. They really haven’t been against good talent and it shows. Our game plan was set up to dominate the line of scrimmage. Not sure how the coaches thought that would happen. Writing has been on the wall since Weber State when we couldn’t move it on them. A couple of big offensive plays by the Griz and we were cooked. For Vigen to be an offensive coach and this to be what our offense looks like has to be a bit of an eye opener. Sorry this is one game but it’s the biggest game of the year and all your flaws will get exposed in this one. We have some big time flaws.
