In a rather stunning surprise, Montana State has been tapped to host a playoff game against the Purple Paladins of Furman. The 7-4 'Cats not only made the playoffs, but get their first game at home.
No surprise: the Griz host the Cowboys of McNeese State.
The I-AA (which has ...

My beloved and hallowed Stillers are having a rough go of it this season. Mostly, I think it can be chalked up to mental mistakes, which have lead to stupid plays and scads of turnovers.
Craig Henry has a scenario that is the stuff of nightmares.

Thank you, KXLH for trading NFL gameday coverage of the defending Super Bowl champions for farqing infomercials. I mean, it's not like they were playing one of the toughest offenses in the NFC or anything like that.
<sarcasm>Yet, we still get to see the Denver/Cleveland game.</sarcasm>
Well done, my friends. ...

Montana State football fans woke up Sunday morning asking themselves, "How?"

Our Father,
Who art in Pittsburgh
Football be thy game.
The Kingdom come,
4 Super Bowls won,
On earth as it is in Heinz Field.
Give us this day a playoff victory,
And forgive us our penalties,
As we defeat those who play against us.
But lead us into a victory,
And deliver us to Detroit.
Amen.
(Found here.)

Was that Steelers-Colts game a barn-burner or what?
As I've commented elsewhere, I expected a close Steelers win. 27-20 was the score I predicted.
As the third quarter came to a close, I was even surprised to find the score 21-3 in favor of the Steelers.

It used to be that playoff season was a cause for rejoicing for me just because we could watch other teams play besides Seattle and Denver. The regional nature of the NFL assumed that folks in the Rocky Mountain West must like one or the other or both. ...
