It's Rivalry Week in the FCS and Montana vs. Montana State is the top attraction.
The unbeaten Grizzlies are ranked No. 2 in the nation and the Bobcats are No. 3 entering their annual showdown, which will serve as one final statement before the playoff bracket is unveiled Sunday.
While Montana has the gaudy 11-0 record, the Griz have had a few close shaves along the way, including a late scare against Eastern Washington two weeks ago. The Bobcats, on the other hand, have been on a tear since opening the season with losses to Oregon and South Dakota State. Montana State has reeled off nine straight wins with an average margin of victory of 33.4 points per game.
It should be a fascinating matchup with plenty of exciting players to watch, from Montana QB Keali'i Ah Yat (2,968 passing yards, 24 TDs) and all-around threat Michael Wortham (155 all-purpose yards per game) to Montana State QB Justin Lamson (2,170 passing yards, 17 TDs, two interceptions).
These teams have split the last four meetings; who will prevail in the 124th Brawl of the Wild?
