Woo, this just in, Fairbanks got a FG. The comeback is on.

Fairbanks 3, Billings 48.

My thought has always been if you're going to get blown out, you should do it in style.

48-3? Naa.

I'd rather it be a shutout. At least it's notable.

Sometimes a FG can help get the shutout stigma out of the players minds though and more points can follow...hopefully that'll happen here.

I've seen two shutouts in person.

Lincoln 20, Sioux City 0 in Sioux City and Omaha 55, Lincoln 0 in Lincoln.

One game was fun, the other not so much.

Everything is going well Coach, good to hear from you again. I'm a junior at UNL now. I watched the match, it was pretty cool. I need to get in class with some of those ladies...

Are you freaking kidding me? These guys are going to need to see a therapist when they get back to Fairbanks.

I'd say that's pretty **** efficient. Good grief.

Well Biggrizfan this is exactly what I was talking about. You guys arent that good and this is what you and the other Griz fans get for trash talking that you guys think you have a chance of winning the Championship after beating one of the worst teams in the leage for your opener. I think the closest game the will play against any top UIF team is going to be 30 point losses lol.

Kratos - you've been around long enough to know that the cream rises to the top and people get humbled as the season progresses. Relax bud.

I guess because I am rooting for Fairbanks in general I can appreciate their fans enthusiam & hopes for the season. Optimism & hope is what gets us through the day right? Most people knew Billings would drop the hammer & while it might not be as bad - they will probably beat the Grizz soundly in Fairbanks.

I am happy for Fairbanks in general because they will be a better team regardless of who they play & their coach isn't calling out players in the newspaper. And to biggrizzfan - North Pole ruling is never in question! Happy Easter everyone.

LOL. Everywhere on the road there are questionable calls, that's just the reality of it.

Yeah but the Billings officials have turned it into an art form.

Players change, coaches change, even uniforms change but bad officiating in Billings is the one thing that stays constant.
