What new talent will emerge today ?

[phxbison]

It's just killing waiting for this game to start, so let's have a little fun ! Give me the names of two new players (players who didn't start last year) on both offense and defense that you think will shine today ! On offense I'm picking Lance Dunn and Jeff Illies and on defense I'm picking M J Stump and Chris Board ! Who are your picks ?

So many to pick from but I'm thinking Pierre Gee Tucker and Jeff Illies or Lance Dunn.

[CaBisonFan]

The front seven with our new DE and linebackers.

yes, yes, yes, and yes.

"when"?

"If" Montana wins, it will be the biggest win in their program since their last national championship, if even that. That much is for real.

[A1pigskin]

The entire Defense will emerge today.

[bisonpride4ever]

The entire Defense will emerge today.

Agree. I think they are sick of hearing how the defense will be down this year. I think they come out ready to hit some people.

Exactly what I am thinking.

[Rockbear99]

Jalen Allison will be big part of this game since CJ is out.

[BisonNation11]

Chris Board and Allison. Nobody on offense stands out as a total team slaughter will happen on that side of the ball

[Rixen]

Saw grimsley out there in the red zone. Good experience. My guess is Jalen for a big play.

[A1pigskin]

So, how about now? Any emergers?

Perkins looked great. Nobody else stood out as an emerger.

[Deuce Dog Nitro]

I didn't really see anyone that didn't play last year make a huge impact. The new faces on defense did not really show it and on offense the new faces had limited opportunities. It's just the first game so the verdict is still out on who will emerge. We will see as the season progresses.

Nobody jumped out. Dunn had a nice run. PGT had a nice tackle. Perkins looked awesome. Otherwise it's tough to say

[Mr Meaty]

Fully agree with Perkins in the return game.

[EC8CH]

Perkins was already looking good as the returner last year in the playoffs, especially the championship. Good to see that carry into this year.

Wrong, this was just a regular season non conference game.

JMU
App St twice

Were easily bigger wins than this.

You have been inhaling too much of that smoke in Missoula! Beating the 4 time defending champs a year after losing to them and with a new coaches first game. Just a Non Con regular season game! Yeah right! Rush the field much!

maybe Perkins is the 2nd coming of CP84, but I thought the biggest reason the return game looked good was the blocking.

[CaBisonFan]

Tough situation for newcomers to emerge. This one was up to the returning starters. Some did well...others didn't.

If a newcomer just held his own in that environment...not bad.

[1998braves64]

I thought Perkins had a couple shots at breaking one for a TD. Wouldn't be surprised if he has a few this year.

Sent from Win8 phone on a bullet train from Hillsboro.Nothing against Perkins, but what I noticed was that Montana was leaving the middle of the field almost wide open on kick returns, and the Bison had 4 or 5 blockers leading the way up a mostly clear middle of the field. This happened 3 or 4 times in a row, and I thought it represented a great opportunity for a Bison kick return TD. Perk came close on one.

Yes this could be a nice sign of things to come. From what I saw he could get at least a few TD's this season.

No doubt the blocking is there. Perk has just been hitting the hole hard and with good timing.

Yep, Perkins was very good, but Montana's kick coverage was awful.

[HandoEX]

Obviously not new talent, but Nate Tanguay was a beast on Saturday!

[Bison"FANatic"]

Grimsley intrigues me. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

We went over this in another thread but no.....no we didnt rush the field. Maybe a couple drunk students hopped the fence, but we are Montana. We clapped for your team leaving the field then preceded to go onto the field like many people do after EVERY game we play but not until the opposing team leaves the field. You can try and paint this another way but I was there, I have video of what happened and you just look like a loser that needs something to justify your team losing.

Dont be that guy, be classy like your fans that came to my tailgate AFTER the game and had beers with us and had a blast........then went and ate pizza with us at Tower pizza and paid for all the pizza and beer before we could.

Be those guys

[ALPHAGRIZ1]

Agreed, that guy is a load and really disrupts the middle.

[A1pigskin]

Perkins did a really good job on kick returns. Could he be the next Shamen Washington as the season goes on?
