Has the torch been passed?

Post by grizzaholic »

So for the past three years App St. has won the title. Well before, and during the first title or two, Montana seemed to be the team that got a lot of bashing. Some was deserved and some was just to spite the Griz because of the winning tradition that has occured here in Missoula. It seems to me as of late that App St. fans have sure been getting a lot of smack directed toward them while Montana still gets its fair share, but not the massive amounts it used to get.


So my question is this. Has the torch been passed on to App St. as the favorite team to smack?

Yes NDSU is a favorite but the smack that occurs after an App st. loss or a Montana loss is quite different than after NDSU gets made to look a fool on the football field.

Not by me, it's not. NDSU deserves EVERYTHING they get....they ain't done SHIT at this level, and they talk as if they're king of the fcuking hill. It is AWESOME to see them have to eat humble pie in their first year of playoff eligibility. Fcuking AWESOME!!!

I agree AZ. And I do hope they get all the pie that they can handle in the next 3 weeks. But I was talking about the rational posters.

Are you calling AZ irrational??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think Montana will continue to be a target just because...and I mean that in a loving, caring way... :roll:

ASU, on the other hand, has had a rash of bandwagon boosters who have just invited the rath of most people...not the sane folks, too many to mention...but the people who have found message boards strictly to smack others and would disappear if their team fell on hard times...IMHO...

Not many 3 game streaks in the "L" column when you're 45-5 in your last 50 games. :lol: :lol: :lol:

11, but you already knew that, azzhole.

We haven't won since ex-Griz coach Souers took over.

I am beginning to think he is still on the Griz payroll.
