Were ranked 5th before the WIU game. Their players were mad with the draw. Their coach is rallying them around this. Their media hates Stitt's/Montanas media policy.
This team is coming in with a chip on their shoulder. Griz had better be prepared. This is no usual first round pushover. Saw a tweet they finished as the 9th best team in the committee's eyes, so the best of the non-seeded teams. Just couldn't put a good enough bid together.
I would expect no less than them feeling disrespected and being angry. If not for losing in overtime this weekend they probably would have had at least a #5 or 6 seed.
Obviously they have a very good team and it will be a challenge. Not necessarily the first round foe I'd prefer but I like this much better than last year's San Diego cupcake game.
Though one thing I don't understand is the highlighted part of your quote. :ugeek:
I'll share some tweets tomorrow, some of the sdsu media people are pretty pissed about the media policy the UM provided them to the point they tweeted about it.
