2019 Big Sky Games

i dont think there has ever been a quarterfinal with even 3 big sky teams let alone 4, but i dont remember every post season. i hope it happens.
 
Friday:
Montana (-2.5) at Weber State
Austin Peay at Montana State (-6.5)
Northern Iowa at James Madison (-19.5)

Saturday:
Illinois State at North Dakota State (-23)


Montana State has been rolling and I guess I’m not totally sold on Austin Peay yet - at least I can’t see them as a final 4 team. I think MSU covers that spread while acknowledging their QB could implode and lose the game if they have trouble getting the run game started vs a solid defensive front.

I’m leaning towards Northern Iowa covering 19.5 points. Their defense should be able to make the game ugly, at least for a while. They need their QB to extend plays and make some improvised throws because they can’t run the ball. And frankly, that QB isn’t good from the pocket. I can’t imagine UNI winning but they do have a very good defense that should keep them in the game.

Illinois State won’t have a scoring drive of longer than 50 yards. Their defense will have to be completely dominant if they’re going to hang around. They literally can’t pass the ball so I don’t see how they cover the spread. They got a lucky draw in the bracket and should be happy to be here.
