Did not get watch either game but listened to Q4 of the NDSU game...defensive stalemate thru Q3 with Grizzilies leading 10-9 battle......built lead in Q4 to 16-7 on a long punt return for TD then failed on 2-point conversion...NDSU down to a 4th and 6 with about 3 minutes to go from their 24...lined up to punt and then ran the ball for a 1st down and got a 15 yd penalty to M42...which turned into a TD with about 51 seconds left.....2 pt good....Griz able to burn clock down to 10 and punted.....NDSU let clock expire....Bisons scored on 1st play of OT and kicked PAT for 23-16 lead...Grix took 2 plays to score then the PAT....now 23-23.....Griz then took 3 plays to score and scored the 2 pt conversion on a tipped double pass with face mask penalty on the passer....now up 31-23..Bison then scored in two plays...now 31-29 Montana...NDSU 2 pt attempt failed....sounded like a terrific ball game...

Congrats to Montana QB Clifton McDowell on a great season and a trip to Frisco!!

Crazy how little playing time he got for the Bears. I do expect them to lose in the finals because South Dakota state is just loaded. I know some folks think less of
these kids when they leave. This is a perfect example of go where your style of play works. Congrats to that young man.

Anyone think UCA fans will travel to Pine Bluff for the September 21st game? Hopefully it's a night game. Going to be warm and muggy I bet!
