Come on wtg; don't put words in my mouth... Nowhere did I say we would lose by 50, nor did CC. We said CSUS might lose by 50 to UM. I already said I fully expect the Cats to be competitive at NAU, and I agree that this team has a lot of charachter. I want them to win just as bad as you do. I would be thrilled with a split, especially on this trip. However, the deck is stacked against them. A win against the Lumberjacks would prove they have the charachter we think they do.

The sky is not falling and we don't have a "bad" team, I am just a literalist. After all, I am a Bobcat fan!

oops, ya that's what i meant. my first post disagreeing with you said you are crazy if you think um beats anyone by 50 this year! and the cats won't lose by 15. just got the two mixed up. either way, i am done arguing about this. i'll give you a nice little thankyou this evening after the cats win on the road.

In basketball right now? No, that would the the winless Griz.

Big Sky Conf
Idaho St. 2-0
Northern Arizona 3-1
Portland St. 2-2
Northern Colorado 2-2
Eastern Wash. 2-2
Montana St. 1-1
Weber St. 1-1
Sacramento St. 1-3
Montana 0-2
With any luck (and we need lots of it) the Cats and Griz could be tied after Saturday night.
Oh, I don't think you'll need much luck. We're toast after burning up all our energy trying to catch Sac and they will still be celebrating when UM gets there. So UM 103, SSU 48. NAU 81, MSU 65. We'll both be 1-2, but not in last place. Yippee!!! Sac will be 1-4.
are you saying that if we would have won last night that we wouldn't have used as much energy? or are you actually implying that with every road trip we are going to lose the second game because of wasted energy in the first? either way, i have to say that i disagree with you. these guys are in amazing shape, and last nights game wasn't even as up-and-down as most. but thanks for the confidence heading into the game. and you can't be serious with your scores. um wins by 55 and the cats lose by 15? honestly, do you know much about basketball, or are you more of a football guy? your name suits you perfectly.
Was that sarcasm? I only ask because the CSUS/NAU trip is THE most grueling in the Big Sky Conference, especially when you have to go from sea level to 7k feet (the other way around isn't quite so bad). Then add in the effect of working their a$$es off (twice) in the 2nd half last night only to lose to a terrible team on a bad break/call or five, AND playing an afternoon game instead of an evening game tomorrow...

I would not be at all surprised if the scenerio crazycat proposed did indeed happen. I know the Cats will put up a helluva fight, but I just don't know if they will have the legs tomorrow. We do have a fairly deep bench working in our favor, but even the radio broadcasters hate that trip. I remember Dean lamenting about it on the Sports Nuts a few years ago. I said it this morning and will say it again, the Griz will probably steamroll the Hairnets tomorrow night.

Wow, you just said.......nothing. Sac State isn't terrible, because they played well against SUU and they will win a few games? How many is a few? 3? So 3-13, that's not terrible?

Everyone realizes that SSU has given us trouble there forever.

No one's questioning their character or saying we'll lose by 50. Show me where someone said we'll lose by 50. NAU is good, so are we, but I would say the same thing about anyone else in our conference if they were in the same situation.

I don't recall anyone saying we have a bad team. We're talking about losing to SSU and that it's a game we should've won and what the long term effect of it will be. I'm basically saying losses like this 'tend' to come back to haunt you and that this loss is the type that is hard to rebound from both physically and emotionally.

guess i'm just surprised that a "fan" would say 2 days before we play nau that we are already toast because we used to much energy. i think that we are not toast!

I think you can be a fan and think we're toast. I've never heard of the 'no saying your team is toast rule'. If I said I wanted us to get beat, that would make me not a fan. I want to win, but I think we're toast. As I've mentioned time will tell and I hope I'm eating my words come this evening.
