Yeah I'm the overly reactionary homer here. I said last Wed. on this board and last weekend to Wedgie that these guys have a good deal of success against us and I wouldn't be expecting anything less than that this time. You see I ain't walking around acting like they can't be beat or even thinking they can't be beat like you seem to. Like I've said before Chicken Little you are the overly boisterous winner and the overly boisterous whiny bitch when things don't go exactly how you expected them to go.
I can see worrying about the problems we had today but being a whiny little bitch that wasn't handed his favorite rattle is what I don't get from you all the time.
I also don't have a bit of an issue if people drop them for this cuz it don't matter to anybody anyhow. They'll be a top 2 seed if they win out. I may jump Villanova or SIU over them myself.
You are the guy that has had UM @ #1 when you have had no reason to have them there and you call me the homer.
You must be readin' somebody elses posts and crediting them to me. I've NEVER said I didn't think they could be beat. And in fact, given the way the game transpired, I'd have actually preferred we'd lost this game to get rid of the "undefeated" thing. But you don't beat Weber like a rented mule and then go to Pocatello and lay THAT kind of an egg and stay #1. #1 teams don't do that. And right back atcha with the #1 thing: I get shit when I HAVE them @ #1, then I get shit when i DROP them from #1. Can't win for losin'.

THIS is more the reason I'm dropping them than anything, Ursus. If we're not the team we were last week, then we're not the best team in America. Period.

I'm getting sick of the undisciplined penalties they continue to thrive on. Cost Mariani a 70 yd punt return for a TD right in front of me in the 3rd quarter. The Griz escaped. Hope this pulls their heads out from the nether regions.
100 yards of penalties by the 3rd quarter..!!!
very sloppy

The Griz have never been the best team in America. Period.

Perhaps FCS, but not America.
I think you know what I meant. Then again, you ARE an EWU grad.

Exactly. I knew what you meant even before you said it.
I was going to leave the 'perhaps FCS' addendum off, but didn't know if your thin skin and thick head would get all uppity about it, and therefore decided to qualify my statement.

Aren't you the guy that made the "what, did Boise State come down and change uniforms" statement? You knew what I meant when I said that the teams weren't the respective teams yesterday that they had been in the past couple of months and yet you bring out some literal bullshit like that?
I don't have a problem with you dropping them as they didn't look like the best team yesterday but I do get a little worn out on your expecting them to win by a wide margin and then bitching like a little girl when they don't. You did the same "this game will be over by halftime" shit when we played NAU and then acted like the house is caving in because we didn't win by enough. Maybe try going with the mindset that any of these teams that have the same resources and the same amount of scholarships could jump up and beat us at any time and you may have a better appreciation of what the team is doing.

It is not a dome thing it is an ISU thing. Was it last year or 3 years ago in Missoula the Griz needed and INT for a score to salt away that victory? I know that Montana is their Super Bowl in conference but give me a break...my son's 5th grade team did not make those mistakes all year. Selle and Mariani fumbled the ball without even getting hit...mental lapses that could be attributed to overlooking a outmatched team playing thier hearts out. Like Mariani said -- Huge gut check.....understatement of the year.

Did you think I was serious about the Boise State thing? And I DO appreciate what they're doing: they're playing JUUUUUST well enough to win most weekends. VERY few convincing wins this year. Weber, PSU and Western State, to be exact. And FYI, the NAU smack was strictly for dbackjon's enjoyment.
Please don't swear in your posts. It hurts my ears.

So why did you have them #1 over Richmond in the first place?

I guess the wins were convincing enough?
If the team gets the win then they get the win and it's convincing enough for me. Sometimes, I admit when you see a total blowout it makes you do a double take but playing just well enough to win don't bother me in the end because that is the same thing that was said last year when we made the deep run.

Two reasons: 1) Richmond was NEVER my #1 team, and have been @ 3, 4, 2, 2 (and now #5) since we started the poll. They are one of the few teams I've seen play multiple times this year, and they have not really impressed me. 2) Montana was my original #4 team, then moved to #2 after beating (then #13) Cal Poly. They moved to #1 the next week with UNI's loss and their win over #25 EWU, then solidified #1 by whomping Weber.
I think I do things differently than some pollsters. I basically start with a clean slate every week, look at their body of work, and then rank accordingly.
