Steppin' out on egriz to say that, ballsy, I like your style. Not many would have the guts to say that around here. I'd ask you to bet on that, but we've all seen where that road goes... ;)

Heaven forbid Hammer takes a minute, sits down, objectively looks at the teams and makes a guess on who'll finish where, just thought we could get past that. :(

Of all Big Sky fans I would think that a Cat fan would be sold on Cal Poly. Cal Poly beat MSU the last 7 times we played before MSU refused to continue to schedule Cal Poly.


Explain to me the relevance of games 6 or 7 years ago to the current teams. You have been reading too many posts by grizidiots if you believe that games several years ago are a factor in this years teams.

I said that I thought you would be in the top half at least, I am not sold that you will contend for the championship, I may be wrong but its still February :thumb:

A cat fan, of all people, should understand the bragging rights associated with an unbroken seven game win streak spread over many years.

Especially since you kitties threw in the towel.

'Til you beat them, you should expect to have your nose rubbed in it.

Speaking of which, 36 to 10, BABY!!!

That kind of stuff bums me out.”

They don't. I was very disappointed when MSU stopped scheduling Cal Poly and I am just taking out my frustration. I'll be there when Cal Poly next plays in Bozeman. Looking forward to many great battles with MSU and all the Big Sky teams now that we are in the conference.

In no particular order...

BSC Title Contenders: EWU, Cal Poly, UM, MSU
Darkhorses: SUU, PSU, Weber, NAU
Mediocre Middle: UND, UCD, ISU, SAC
Last Place: Da Bears. :lol:

FWIW concerning EWU:
-UW transfer DT Andru Pulu (6'1, 300) will be eligible to play this year.
-AA LB Zach Johnson was granted a medical RS and will be back.
-OL will be experienced... 10 different players started in 2011 due to injury.
-WRs are DEEP; Nick Edwards (6'3), Greg Herd (6'3), and Brandon Kaufman (6'5) all have had a 1000+ season in the last two years...
-QB Kyle Padron (6'3, 230)(who took BLM's at SMU and is now transferring) is on campus today and tomorrow. If he signs, watch out. :thumb:

2012 Big Sky Predictions?

Postby EWURanger29 » Fri Feb 24, 2012 10:39 am

My predicted order of finish:

UM (defense is a question)
MSU (solid all around)
CP (great schedule)
EWU (pending Qb situation)
WSU (have a solid returning group)
SUU (great Qb play will win games)
NAU (will rely heavily on Bauman)
PSU (lost a lot of key players)
UND (just a guess)
UCD (just a guess)
SAC (lost a lot of key players)
UNC (need better o-line play)
ISU (still a few years away)

1. Montana
2. Cal Poly ( has the easiest schedule, could easily be #1)
3. Montana State
4. Eastern Washington
5. Weber State (Weber and EWU could easily be swapped)
6. Portland State
7. North Dakota
8. Southern Utah
9. Northern Arizona
10. Sacramento State
11. Idaho State
12. UC Davis
13. Northern Colorado (Davis and NC could also be easily swapped)

Yes, both Talley and Forte were true freshmen last year and are physical, hard runners. Mario Brown will be a junior. Hope to see more from the UW transfer Bronson.

We have a RS freshman will very similar skillsets to DeNarius McGhee, and a RS Junior who has minimal game experience. Signed one QB in this year's draft class, but guarantee he redshirts. Baldwin has stated though that he will add a 4th QB before spring ball, and possibly a 5th, so it definitely looks like we're getting a transfer one way or another. Hope he can sell Padron today... he put up better numbers than BLM, with about half the INTS. Also has a lot better size. Also played a pass-heavy spread in HS.

All of their offensive weapons will be returning and we will be getting a new QB from UNC. Our D-Line will be returning but we will be losing starters at linebacker and safety. I am okay with the linebackers because we have some players that got a good amount of playing time that will fill in nicely. And at safety we have some RS freshman who have been looked at highly that will be getting plenty of playing time but who knows how good they will end up. I just believe it is a lot of the same team just more experienced and our QB play last year was awful and we still managed to win 8 games granted it was in the Great West and against some (stupid) NAIA/D2 schools. I guess we will just have to let the year play out and see what happens.
