should be a good trip. I have my wife primed to go to the Montana state game next year. She likes the idea of going to Montana. Probably not so much the game although she is a good sport and humors me.

I had a neighbor that called them “felony state university”. That was several years ago but it still makes me chuckle. They were the Montana of FBS. Tennessee was similar at the time.

agreed on the Dixie qb assessment. He is a load (I call him Herman Munster) but keep him in the pocket and you”ll sack him and he is an erratic passer. Dixie hung with Weber for about a half then they simply got worn out and overwhelmed. The Ags should roll them. Hope they do like usd and hit early and hard and take them out of the game early. Their best defensive player (I think a previous poster got his name backwards ) was injured in the Weber game. Dixie plays a murderers row of FCS. Weber, then the Aggies, then South Dakota State, then Montana. There is such a thing as playing better competition to make you better, but I think it may lead as much to discouragement and getting used to losing.

doubt it. TT is great with the ball in the open field, but playing qb is a different animal. As I heard a commentator say while watching another game “the trouble with QBs who are really good runners is that they look to run before going through their progressions.” He might get a shot after HR leaves, but HR is a nifty escape artist who thows well on the move and is just a better passer. So use TT as flanker, empty backfield when appropriate (I.e., near goal line) punt returner (kick returner?) and get him in position to get the ball at other positions. At the time this is the way to go. Who knows in the future, but gaudy high school passing stats do not necessary translate at the college level. From the little I have seen, he doesn’t look like a natural passer.

I watched part of the Idaho-Indiana game. Don’t think Idaho has improved any. Think it was 35-0 before Idaho had a first down much because of special team collapses.

Pick 6 for leathernecks. Pull to within 14-7.

Leathernecks score but home cooking ref call of chop block takes score off board. Still 7-0 Montana.

yes they have a good defense. I really dislike Hauck- so. I admit a bias against them. They don’t appear to have the offensive weapons of say the Ags and EWU, but defense always gets you far.

yes we can beat them. But, need to do it and get the monkey off the back.

Watching Montana- western Illinois. I haver never been so thrilled as when the Ags went into Missoula and gave Montana and Bobby Hauck their worst drubbing at Washington-Grizzly ever (2018)

Use Tompkins as a flanker.

Get out the duct tape for the chain pole. I think refs should carry a multi- tool.

Yes fair catches have their place. But I will say that he doesn’t let the ball hit and roll like a lot of conservative returners. So, all in all, he has save a lot of yardage.

Well I guess hard to work on the running game with guys getting open.

Start subbing. Avoid injuries and gain experience for others. Also like to see them work on run game.

Too easy.

18/30 233 3 tds and 1 rushing midway through third. Maybe not as good as last week. But he’s the guy.

Castles has great hands.

Uhhh his foot was down inbounds

Yes it was. Guess there were 2 touchdown passes.

ron Gould school of strategy.

Rodrigues is a very nifty runner, but he makes me nervous with exposure to potential injury.
