The Massey Ratings gives Montana a 92% chance of winning this Saturday with the most likely outcome PSU 24 UM 45. Unhappily, that seems about right to me.
 
Massey isn't venturing out too far. Ever since Wash-Griz opened in 1986, the Grizzlies have won 86% of all their games played there. Even the tough teams struggle to win there.

If you have a chance to go to the game, I would highly recommend it. The game atmosphere is one of the best in all of FCS and even rivals most of the FBS. Grizzly fans are really hospitable to visiting fans as well. I use to joke around that Grizzly fans would give you their shirt off their backs while they are pounding you senseless. :D

"LINEBACKERS: The Hornets play two linebackers in their base packages, and their linebackers are the most productive part of their defense."

Hornets, Vikings, whatever.
 
I would agree that attending a game at UM is an experience. The Grizz fans were mostly hospitable, as long as they were winning. We had a great time and love the city.

Weather in Missoula. Temps near 50, cloudy, light wind, low chance of precipitation. Should be a good day for football, at least for Montana in October. :thumb:
 
Radio coverage so far on 620 Rip City Radio. Montana too cheap to subscribe to Pluto TV.

Griz fumbled the first snap of the game, Viks recover. Score TD for the good guys. 7-0 Viks.

Now Viks blocked a punt. Knocking on the door again.

missed seeing your post about Montana....that surprises me

Was a tongue in cheek reference. Game is on SWX who carried the Idaho game last week. Don't know why it isn't on Pluto TV.
 
Thanks, that link works. Don't know why I didnt see the on goviks.com

These damn kids are going to rope me in again.....as much as I complain, for the kids sake, I'd like them to play well and have as much success as they can muster.....
 
Hallftime, good guys up 13-0. Well played half for the Viks. Thanks for the link, Gordo.

Team needs to keep up the pressure. We get the ball to start the second half.
