(Franz Joseph ..sorry couldn’t resist) Hayden Hatten ran wild on the first half against EWU. Had 4 TD catches. He has got decent size (6’2”) and bodies up the smaller cornerbacks. Hope the Ags have a strategy to keep him in check. Idaho running backs scorched EWU on the outside - not so much up the middle but the EWU defense is pretty poor. I think the key will be to get some pressure on their QB McCoy who is having a good year.

I hope Kraft and/or Davis is back this week. I really think Kraft is a solid receiver - just been plagued by injuries.

Hayden Hatten is a big play receiver. If he is one on one the ball is going to him. He has made some big plays. Wonder if there is a specific plan to deal with him. Jam him at line of scrimmage? Cover 2 with safety help?

poor attendance. I heard it was “cold” but not a real good showing for last game and senior day. If you want cold, Montana game would be the ticket. 35 and snow. Announced attendance was 25,000 in Missoula but don’t know how many were gone by halftime. I betcha Montana is thinking they have “returned to dominance” (RTD) after thumping Poly. The RTD is kind of a inside joke to Montana State fans.

Montana State - NAU game was extremely entertaining. One of those “whoever has the ball last wins” - and it proved to be so. Martinez was fantastic this game. MSU gave him a lot of pressure but he avoided it deftly in most cases and delivered strikes to wide open receivers. MSU has issues in defensive secondary with both pass coverage and some tackling. Mellot passed more than expected and was not particularly successful on it but did deliver a nice deep ball to save their hide at end of game (led to game winning field goal). If you have ESPN+ and haven’t already done so, I highly recommend spooling through that game.

That would be WSU (Wazzu) not UW.

Is Hutton injured? Heard that both Davis and Kraft are out.

Grant Sands does it again. As a long snapper you don’t want anyone to know your name.

I think this game comes down to containing Guillory in the receiving game and limiting Hays scrambling attempts. Aggies should win this one by a comfortable margin, but you can't count your chickens before they hatch.

Agreed.

Sac’s definite tendency when O’Hara is in, is O’Hara following Scattabo as the lead blocker. Tough to stop but I would plan on it.

one of the parents I met in Bozeman (Conners parents I believe) said Frazier was the fastest guy on the team. He’s had some good safety blitzes.

I saw Frazier in the game.

Dunniway is physically fine but has looked off the past couple of weeks. 2 picks against Idaho and 3 against Montana although I think one against Montana was a Hail Mary at end of first half. I think his confidence has been rattled. Without O’Hara, Sac loses the Idaho game and likely the Montana game.

Montana is always over-ranked. It boils down to name recognition Their offense was abysmal today.

Time to switch over and watch the Idaho @ Sac game.

The sac announcer keeps calling them the “Bengals”. How lame is that?

wonder if they will go to Harper. He throws a nice looking ball.

Technically, an average is equal to the sum of numbers 1-N, divided by N, with no restrictions on N other than that is usually an integer, but what I wrote is nonsensically intended to be nonsensical

I guess at that point, the sample size was equal to the population . And yah figured it was tongue in check.

LOL. Sounds like one of those “don’t become your parents” commercial. My wife is in Honolulu now with her 2 sisters celebrating a sisters birthday and she texted me “hope your football games are going well”

Buchanan just baited brasch- he was queued up for it.

Wow. Insult to injury.

I was in same spot - but I’ve seen a lot of other FCS quarterbacks and one of his qualities is that he keeps looking downfield and doesn’t panic - and his accuracy has really improved. If you saw the Montana game - wow there backup qb is the opposite - panics and starts running or moving excessively and doesn’t make quick decisions.
