This is Griz Nation, the best commercial ever.
Since I saw the Griz's new opening video on Griz Vision a few weeks ago I've been dying to find it on the internet. Finally, it's turned up. It's not the complete version, but here is a similar ad the University of Montana has been running on TV. I absolutely loved when I was surprised by this treat during SportsCenter.
Just in case you're not as pumped as you should be or are still reeling from camping out for tickets, I suggest you watch this ad repeatedly. I know I've probably seen it about 25 times and could not be any more ready for this game.
Also, if you're looking for the full game-opener version it's available on YouTube. It's a poor angle but it gives Griz fans the same type of experience this David Ortiz clip gives to people like Bill Simmons.
Also, here's a more dramatic and emotional ad. It's good, but I'm just not feeling a softer side during Griz-Cat week.
Matt Martin took the last shot before Hasquet, not BE. Plus, BE hit a three earlier in the game, he can hit threeees but would rather tally his assists than shoot
Ah, my bad. I was going off of the YahooSports article. Man, they shouldn't get that wrong. I probably should also shell out for that Big Sky TV. BE is definitely as passer before a shooter...I don't think I would've had Matt takin that shot either. If I wanted the person I trusted the most it'd be Doc Dlouhy. If I wanted to be a nut and go creative, i'd give it to Stads or pull Spurgetis off the bench. Work it down low do Strait then kick it out to wide open, unknown Spurgetis. Greg works on his shot constantly and I would love to see him get some minutes off the bench...this team is just too deep to be where it is.
