Grok’s unofficial Montana State vs Oregon gameday thread

[KIX]

Starting to think that scheduling our season like UM does might be the way to go. Play 8 home games, don’t play anyone that’s good, make the playoffs……..maybe they aren’t so dUMb after all.

Good take!

Im a negative Nancy. This may be long season. I understand development is great, but we may fall behind with our lack of portal shopping.

Take a breath. We aren’t playing Western Oregon here….

We will know more after next week. Oregon is far more talented than us. Hard to really get a measure of the Cats today. Get out of the game healthy and I will be happy

Winning by 1 or losing by 50 has no bearing on the season whatsoever for either team.

[Cats and Dogs]

Lanning wasn't going to let another Idaho happen BUT the Cats need to compete a little. very lacksadaisical and sloppy so far.

Wrong.

I know! I’m just being a turd. Lamson can sling it!

Nice running by Taco.

[TomCat88]

Both teams are running their base stuff to get prepped for the season. Oregon is trying to avoid a scare like it had last year vs Idaho. Sending the punt blockers.

MSU doesn’t look bad unto itself.

Not at all. MSU is playing hard.

[CatBlitz]

Line is getting bullied. Real bad start.

[tdub]

Oregon’s d line is extremely good

[profisme]

Gonna have to be more creative on those short yardage situstions against these guys. Their DL is just too good to think we can move them.

[catzz]

What's the deal with Mastel? Out since Monday's pressers? Serious injury?

He got hurt last week. I'm guessing he could potentially play another position on the oline but it would be difficult to play center. Looks like he traveled there. Not sure if he is dressed out or not.

[TomCat88]

Defense is closing well and not letting receivers get too open.

We had trouble moving NDSU’s line

[msuhunter]

That doesn’t look good. Looks like a shoulder problem

They’re just running what they would run against a normal opponent.

I get that, but this is not a normal opponent.

[85CatGrad]

Ducks are simply bigger, stronger and faster. We will need time to gel with all the newbies. We will be fine at the FCS level.

[OldGriz]

Last year’s 13-1 Oregon survived a 24-14 scare against the Idaho Vandals. The Ducks aren’t ranked as highly this year, but they won’t let anything like that happen again. There should be a 50-point rule for cash-only games like this.

[coloradocat]

This is going as well as you would expect facing half of an NFL team.
