Griz Fan Podcast - Poly win, EWU under the lights, and being a pirate or driving a teal Miata

It’s a big week in Griz Nation as the #4 Montana Grizzlies head to Cheney to play the #6 Eastern Washington Eagles.  In this weeks episode of the GFP we share our thoughts from the homecoming game against Cal Poly.  From how impressive the defense and special teams were, to the inconsistent showing from the offense.  There’s also a segment dedicated to our ongoing observations around the gameday experience.  We then look around the league and recap what happened in Big Sky Conference play and predict the upcoming week.  After that it’s time to talk about this huge game against EWU, we talk about who to look for, what to expect, and how the Griz can win.  Finally, as always, we’ve got a large array of fan questions to cover as we close out the show including a pick one option about being a pirate or driving a teal Miata with the roof down in the winter.

Griz Fan Podcast - Homecoming and Cal Poly

It’s homecoming for Montana!  With the bye week in the rear view mirror the Griz ramp up for their next opponent, the Cal Poly Mustangs.  Without a prior game to recap the guys jump into talking about the wild last week of Big Sky Conference football and also discuss the week ahead for all other conference teams.  We chat as well about the upcoming Griz opponent in Cal Poly.  The Mustangs new head coach is former EWU coach Beau Baldwin and he’s undergoing large changes with the program.  Gone are the triple option days for Poly, but as discussed in the pod, we don’t know who’s starting at QB and we’re expecting some tricks up Baldwin’s sleeve.  The last half of the pod closes out with the wide array of fan questions and comments, some of which lead to some long discussions on various topics.

Griz Fan Podcast - Great to be back in Wa Griz

Montana is now 2-0 after coming off a 42-7 home opener win against Western Illinois.  We just cannot stop talking about how impressive this defense has been so far!  This week we focus on our observations from the game and cover our overall thoughts of where this team is at with the bye week ahead of us.  This was also the first full capacity home game since November of 2019 and we share our thoughts on the gameday experience, good and bad. 

With no upcoming game to preview we then hop right into recapping games around the Big Sky and then make our picks for the week ahead.  And after our most popular episode left we had a lot of new fan questions to get to.
