Those two teams’ coaches that year, Ed Cavanaugh at Idaho State and Pacific’s Homer Smith, would both go on to be head coach at West Point. From 1949 to 1969 the Grizzlies never won the week after their annual battle with the Bobcats. By contrast the four years Gene Carlson was Grizzly head coach, from 1976-79, the Grizzlies won each year the week after the Bobcat game. The Grizzlies have compiled a 56-77-1 record in Big Sky league play since the league was formed in 1963. The Bobcats and Grizzlies had never both been in the same football league until they were charter members of the Big Sky Conference in 1963. A win over the Bobcats this year would be the Grizzlies’ fourth of the 1980s, the most they have had in a decade since the 1950s. The Griz managed only three wins in both the 1960s and 1970s. Marty Mornhinweg, the Grizzlies’ all-time leading passer, had an international flavor in the beginning and ending of his career. He played his first game for the Griz against a Canadian team, Simon Fraser in 1980, and ended his career playing against Army Jerry Williams in Japan in the Mirage Bowl in 1984. The Grizzlies are the only Big Sky Conference school not to have been involved in a game decided by the tie-breaker. The Grizzlies have had only one game end in a tie since the tie-breaker system was instituted and that was against Eastern Washington in 1984. Ironically enough EWU is now a league member.
