Idle Mania

    Week 4 was a humbling experience for the 'Answer Man', but to tell you the truth.... I was battling a nasty cold last week so my 4-4 record was definitely just a fluke. I feel much better this week and all systems are a go. So expect another 100% weekend from this ole' boy.... I know you expect nothing less than from 'Mr. Perfect.'

    The Bison are idle this week before traveling to Nicholls State next Saturday, so I'll keep my column short and sweet. The Bison Insider Game of the Week is an interesting contest between the Bears and Grizzlies. Will Northern Colorado rebound from it's humiliating defeat 38-0 defeat to the Maine Black Bears and last week's overtime loss to Idaho State? Will the Montana Grizzlies rebound from their own crushing 41-29 defeat at the hands of Sam Houston State? Is Northern Colorado just a plain old brown bear? Ya know, a grizzly bear will whip a plain old brown bear's behind every time....

    So what are the keys to Northern Colorado being successful at Montana? See Montana-North Dakota State video from last year.... confidence, pride, and resilience. The Bears have to control the clock and limit turnovers. The Northern Colorado must not spend the whole game on the field. The Bears' defense has played one good half of football this season and I'm not so sure it wasn't due to a lack of execution by the NDSU offense. Right now the Northern Colorado defense is just not very good. And furthermore, Northern Colorado hasn't picked a very good time to visit Montana. The Grizzlies are wounded. So I can find no good reason to pick a Northern Colorado win.... just doesn't make sense. Montana 41, Northern Colorado 24.
