    The quarterbacking for the Goophers was much better against San Jose State yesterday. They passed for a total of 7 yards. Wish I had purple font for that

    I think the Bison coaches saw their defence being able to dominate, and didn't want to let the Griz have turnovers which was the only way they'd score enough to take a win back with them.

    Great point.

    Carson looked good. He's as good as Brock was in 2011 and he's only got 4 starts in the book.

    Yep...Chris Streveler started instead of Mitch Leidner. Streveler was 1 for 7, with that one completion going for 7 yards. He also threw one interception with one of his 7 passes.

    Two of his throws were caught, one by each team.

    I thought Carson's passing looked improved.

    I thought Carson looked great. One bad pass to Illies, a knocked down screen pass, Vraa dropped two passes (one for a decent gain) and over threw Illies on another play down by the goal line (which he could have caught had he left his feet). He doesn't panic, throws great on the run and if anything needs to learn to be patient on designed runs. Great progress this week

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    I think Wentz does a good job working through his progression. Honestly one of the issues I had with Brock was he would often "Lock On" to a receiver.

    I think Carson is progressing nicely. As the season goes on I think the play book will open up a little more for him to use his arm down field more. Obviously the Bison are a run oriented offense but with his arm the offense can be a lot more diverse.

    I thought Carson had a very good game. 16-24, no INTs, no sacks, and at least one 3rd down run to pick up a critical first down. I'll have to watch the game again, I guess.

    BTW, am I the only one who thinks that NOT running the QB puts him in more danger of injury? Cripes, look at the hits Jordan Johnson took in the pocket... Emanuel about broke him him half.
