Griz vs Weber *Revenge*

Our first tailgate spot. As you can see we were a bit early. We were the first ones in the parking lot.
Yum, brats and hot dogs

Our first tailgate was a success! We couldn't have had a better spot. I think this will be a yearly thing now. Brady, Kristy, Michael, Yosh, Dawn and my mom and dad all had beer and brats before the game and at halftime. Mom even made some scotcharoos. The game was great. The Griz killed Weber! The final score was 45-10. This was the first game the offense came to play for the whole game. If they can keep this up we can go far in the playoffs. After the cats weber is my least favorite team. Next up is Western Oregon. Go Griz!

Montana vs Eastern Washington

26,066 a record crowd!

The win!

The was a game everyone was looking forward to. Last years champs were coming to town. We needed some revenge after last years loss in Washington. It was a close one but the Griz sent Eastern packing with an 0-3 record. Ouch. The final score was 17-14. I'm running behind....this post is out of order.

Homecoming Montana vs UNC

A cold beer on a beautiful morning. This update was posted from my iPad. That's why the quality isn't as good.

Bring em out!!


Some rain in the 4th quarter


Big crowd. It was the fourth largest ever I believe.
Griz looked good today. It was against Northern Colorado but even so I think they needed a game like this to get some confidence and momentum back. The final score was 55-28. Next week we play at Idaho State. Looks like Kramer has them playing quite a bit better this year. Hopefully JJ will be healthy. Go Griz!

Week 2, Montana vs Cal Poly

The final score
The win!
Goofing around


Boom!!

Pregame....Remembering 9/11



It was a hot one in the stadium this weekend! The Griz started out hot went a little cold and then picked it up big time in the second half. Sambrano started the game off by returning the opening kickoff for a touchdown. After that they didn't get a whole lot going until after halftime. Boy did they look good when they opened the offense up in the 3rd quarter. Jordan Johnson looked great! Really makes me excited to see how he does against Eastern Saturday. He could be the next great Griz quarterback. I sure hope so! Everyone have a good week and lets kick some eastern ass Saturday! Go Griz!

Halftime at NAU Game





The 2010 Griz season was disappointing, but somewhat expected. When you have a new coach with a new offensive philosophy there are going to be growing pains. Compound that with some key injury's and way too many turnovers and you can understand a 7-4 record.

So, If coach Pflugrad can get the turnover problem under control and instill some discipline in special teams I think we will be ok next year. Really, the Griz were a few turnovers away from a 10-1 record. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Jordan Johnson can do next spring. Team him up with Jordan Canada and we might have some thing special. Time will tell.

I think the spring game is in Billings. Hopefully Pflugrad can get some good recruiting done with the extra time off this year. Who knows....not making the playoffs for a year may be a blessing in disguise.

Everyone have a great holiday season and Go Griz!!

The win

A beautiful day and a record crowd. The Griz played a little sloppy at times but they got the win and that's what counts. Go Griz!

Week 1 Montana vs Western State

The weather moving in

The row 13 crew

A full house (to start with) to see the blowout

Victory!

Griz football is finally back and what a day, other then an hour or so, for a game. These late summer games are always nice for wearing shorts and drinking a few beers. The defense looked outstanding. It was a nice tune up for their first real game. The stoppage of play for lightening was a first for me. An extra long halftime was pretty cool though. Next up is Cal Poly. Go Griz!

The Excitement Builds

Only 3 days untill Griz Football is back! I'm looking forward to another great year. Check back often. I'll have pictures and video after all home games. Go Griz!!

On To Next Season

The championship game didn't go the way anyone of us were hoping but it was still a great year. Signing day is fast approaching It looks like we've got a few really good looking recruits that have already verballed to Montana. Most notably a qb from Oregon (Jordan Johnson). I think the spring scrimmage is in Butte this year in April so some Griz football isn't too far off.

Round Three Montana vs Appalachian State

You just can't beat a night time playoff game!


After the game
We didn't want to leave the stadium so we took a few pictures
Ya gotta love that score

Back to Chatty!! What a night this was. College football at it's best. The crowd was rockin and so was the stadium...literally. Great job fans...24,207, almost a sellout. No one in our section sat down the entire game. Hats off to Appalachian State. It was a hard fought game for both teams. I'm just glad we came out on top. One more game to go....damn it's fun to be a Griz fan. Go get em in Chattanooga Grizzlies!
