Griz Hangover?

[SeattleGriz]

Montana had 206 yards of offense in the game, 73 in the second half. Averaged 2.5 yards per carry and 3.2 yards per play. Adding in punt return yards - which includes the 78 yard PRTD - Montana still had less yards offense than UNI.

And STILL you lost the following week. Just like clockwork.

Montana punched UNI in the freaking mind. They still ain't right. Dared the QB to beat them with the pass and he failed.

Hahaha
Now "THAT THERE" is funny, hats off to you.
Didn't realize you thought this 0-6 team you beat is part of the toughest part of the griz schedule I was referring to.
Oh well. ....

I wasn't talking about the team we smoked. I was talking about the team UNI lost to.

Now I change it up a bit, UNI has now lost 3 close games to 3 good teams, but they are not out of the playoffs yet any more than you or "anybody" is guaranteed a spot yet.
We all still have a lot of tough teams to go thru still.
Just like UND beat Calpoly who beat you, but that doesn't mean that it is "guaranteed" that they will do better than the griz at the end of the season (even though it is likely?)

If we see UNI in the playoffs it'll be at home....and we know how that works for UNI.

Maybe,
The fact is the Griz have a harder schedule overall still to go for this to be a possibility.
UNI has lost 2 against 2 good teams, and in close games.

Wait, you seriously think the Griz have a tougher remaining schedule than UNI? The only team that should gives me any sort of pause is EWU, whereas UNI has YSU, NDSU, WIU and SDSU to contend with.

The home games are gimmes, but NoCo is dangerous and NAU will be a battle if Cookus is back.

NoCo certainly look more dangerous than usual, but not enough so that you could say our remaining schedule is more difficult than UNI's.

No, certainly not as difficult as UNI's, but there are more potential landmines than just EWU.

No ... I think that the remaining schedule for the griz doesn't have 2 teams as lowly ranked as the one they played last week and the season opener.
(maybe even sacst is better? )
UNI usually gets real tough as the season goes on, they lost a lot of nfl caliber talent on defense last year, we will see.

MVSU was a cupcake but St. Francis gave Towson all they could handle so I don't think they are as bad as most people think. By the way, the Griz lost 3 LB last year (all were in pro training camps and one DE who is in the NFL) yet the Montana D is strong this year. Lots of games to be played so we will see where it all ends up

True
And the UNI defense is still strong, lost 3 close games to 3 good teams.
Your right, a lot of year left to see how it goes for all our teams.

In my opinion, the "Griz Hangover" only happens after a team beats Montana (For most teams that's a rare thing, thus the hangover effect). A loss is usually expected... a win elevates a team.

So what have the results been for teams after they've beaten the Griz? (Leaving out 2014 Wyoming, 2011 Tennessee, and 2006 Iowa FBS games & National Championships where Griz lost.)
