I say 0.

If they were playing in the CAA, would they make the playoffs???

How many do you think Montana would win in 2010 if they played in the CAA??

Reasoned judgements, please.

CAA North or CAA South?

How many home games will they have? i.e., 6 or 7 home games?

Will they play a FBS game OOC or will they stick with a DII? FBS means they will absolutely WORN out and beat down by their first conference game and will thusly lose every single conference game. DII means they will not gain ANY real game experience and will thusly lose every single conference game

Will they still get a chance to play a Big Sky team as an OOC? i.e., automatic win and chance to rest their top 3 strings

No offense Col, but I don't particularly care if that was sent from your Droid using Tapatalk.

Just noticed that...they must automatically tag it on the post, because I didn't put that in...

Michael Herrick throws for over 400 yards with 4 TDS to end Montana's home-winning streak. The senior from California, drove the Lumberjacks 75 yards for the winning TD with :32 left in regulation

My Grizzlies go down at home but the NAU QB is just too good!

Frankly, I don't get the love affair with Michael Herrick. He's very good, mind you, but he's statistically inferior to more than one returning QB, including Montana's Andrew Selle:

Code: Select all

                 Selle         Herrick
Touchdowns          28              22
Interceptions        6               8
Yards/Attempt     8.55            8.25
TD %              7.87            5.41
Interception %    1.69            1.97

The only areas in which Herrick beat Selle last year were completion percentage (66.34 to 62.92) and total passing yards (3356 to 3043), and he only had more passing yards because he threw 51 more passes than Selle.

Selle suffered in some people's minds last year because he was a rotating starter for several games with Justin Roper and because he played in a balanced run-pass offense. Neither of those things will be true this year, with Selle already named the starter and Montana going to a more passing-dominated offense.

Not to mention that Selle led his team to both a hard-fought, OT win over NAU -- and a trip to the national championship game.

BigSkyFootball wrote:Selle from Montana played in 3 more games than Herrick from NAU and yet, Herrick threw for more yards, had a better pass completion percentage, played two BCS teams, and had better stats when they went head-to-head. How does the #2 team in FCS give up over 400 yards passing? The stats that you mention are basically irrelevant.

Herrick also played Arizona and Ole Miss out of conference.

Woop-de-freaking-doo. The Griz would spank both of those squads.
