Kraig is in his fourth season and second stint overall as a coach at his alma mater. He serves as Montana’s defensive coordinator and assistant head coach and oversees the defen sive ends. Paulson is in his 20th season of coaching at the collegiate level and his 17th at Montana. For the past two years the Paulson-led Griz defense has been one of the best in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly called Division l-AA) ranks. Montana was ranked ninth in the nation in total defense in 2006, allowing 226.4 yards a game, as well as ninth in rushing defense (108.8 yards a game) and 14th in scoring defense (16.1 points a game). Prior to returning to Montana in 2004, Paulson was the defen sive coordinator and secondary coach at Utah State for former Griz mentor Mick Dennehy. In 2002, he served as the defensive coordinator and defensive line coach. He was an assistant coach for the Grizzlies from 1987-99. Paulson coached linebackers, the defensive line, and the second ary at Montana in his first stint. While coaching at Montana, the Griz defense was ranked among the national leaders against the rush in 11 of the 12 sea sons of his tenure here. The Griz had six defensive linemen earn first-team all-Big Sky honors, and four players receive All-America recognition, during his tenure. He began his coaching career at UM in 1987 as a graduate as sistant. He then worked with the linebackers (1988-90), defensive line (1991-99), and was elevated to defensive coordinator, serving in that capacity in 1998-99.

Kraig and his wife, Jody, have three sons: Keogh, 14, Eilas, 12, and Rokken, six. COACH HAUCK QUOTES ON KRAIG PAULSON: Kraig has vast experience as a defensive coordinator. With his help last year we produced probably the best defense ever in the Big Sky Conference. If it wasn't the best defen sive unit, it was surely one o f the best in Big Sky history. We led the league in all the important defensive categories. I am excited about what is going on with our defensive side of the fo o t ball, and a lot o f that has to do with the efforts o f Kraig. He is a long-time friend. He's a hard-working and intense guy. He's exactly what you want in your defensive coordinator.99

Mike Hudson is in his third season at The University of Montana as an as sistant football coach. This season he is working with the running backs. Last year he coached cornerbacks. He also serves as UM’s associate head coach. Hudson is now in his 19th year of coaching in the collegiate ranks. The past 16 seasons he has coached team at the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly called Division IAA) level. He has had coaching stints at Sam Houston State, Texas State University-San Marcos, Trinity University, and the Univer sity of New Mexico. Hudson came to Montana after a two-year stint at Sam Hous ton State where he was the defensive coordinator for the Bearkats for a season and the defensive line coach the year prior to that. The Grizzlies played Sam Houston State in a FCS semifi nal game in Missoula in 2004, Montana winning 34-13. That year Sam Houston State registered the biggest turnaround in FCS history, improving from a 2-9 record in 2002 to a 11-3 ledger in 2003. He had numerous coaching and administrative responsibili ties at Texas State University-San Marcus, from 1995-2002. Prior to that he had coaching stints at the University of New Mexico (1994) and Trinity University (1992 and 1993). He began his col lege coaching career at Texas State-San Marcos and was there from 1987-1991, rejoining that program in 1995.

He played collegiate football at Angelo State University. Mike and his wife Dyan have two children: Lee, 11, and Loryn, nine.

COACH HAUCK QUOTES ON MIKE HUDSON: U Hud is an invaluable member o f our sta ff because he can coach any position. He's ju st a good football coach. He's our assistant head coach as well. He's coaching our running backs now, and this spring they all made improvements over last fa ll. It's amazing that he can make that much o f an impact in 15 days of practice. Mike Hudson will be a tremendous addition to our offensive s taff in his work with the running backs. 99

COACH HAUCK QUOTES ON TY GREGORAK:

Ty is an intense fella. He's gone from being a good, young coaching prospect to a great young coach. We are fortunate to having him coach our linebackers, which is the position he played fo r us at Colorado. He brings a temperament and intensity to that group that is showing up on the field. ”

montana fo o tball - OUTLOOK 20 07 OUTLOOK: MONTANA GRIZZLIES VYING FOR 15TH STRAIGHT FCS BERTH & 10TH BIG SKY CONFERENCE TITLE IN A ROW THE FAVORITE AGAIN IN 2007? The University of Montana Grizzlies will more than likely again find themselves as the favorite in the race for 2007 Big Sky Conference football crown - and why not? The Griz have now won nine Big Sky Conference championships in a row, and garnered league titles in 12 of the last 14 seasons. UM has now made a record 14 straight NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly called Division l-AA) playoff ap pearances in a row. Putting it plain and simple, Montana has been the most domi nant and consistent team in the FCS the past decade-and-a-half, dating back to the 1993 season. The Grizzlies have also had 21 straight winning seasons, which began in 1986. This season the Griz return 18-plus starters and 57 lettermen from a 12-2 team that was a perfect 8-0 en route to yet anoth er conference title. Montana was ranked third in the final Sports Network poll and has been ranked in TSN’s top 25 in 198 of the past 202 weeks. Some other reasons for continued high expectations and more success in 2007 are the return of 16 players who received All-Big Sky recognition, and the return of senior running back Lex Hilliard, a Walter Payton Award candidate, and senior de fensive end Kroy Biermann, a finalist for the 2006 Buck Buchanan Award.

OFFENSIVE OVERVIEW Last season Montana was ranked 20th in the nation in passing (227.2 yards a game), 22nd in total offense (366.57 yards a game), and 23rd in scoring (27.5 points a game).

Sophomore quarterback Clint Stapp

The Grizzlies lost just two starters on offense, and one of those players was all league quarterback Josh Swogger. Hill iard, who did not play last season due to injury, is one of nine-plus returning start ers, nine all-league players, and 25 letter men who are back on offense. “We have a veteran group back on of fense, it’s certainly a much more experi enced group than we had a year ago,” said fifth-year Griz head coach Bobby Hauck, who has a career record of 41-13 at his alma mater (1988). “Our offensive line has tremendous depth and experience, which is unique in our tenure here,” Hauck said. “Having Lex Hilliard and Greg Coleman back after losing them to injury will help us immensely also.” A year ago Swogger passed for 17 touchdowns, while UM ’s returning “ABC” wideouts Eric Allen, Ryan Bagley, and Craig Chambers combined for 147 catches and 17 touchdowns. Running backs Reggie Bradshaw, and Thomas Brooks-Fletcher, who rushed for a total of 12 touchdowns, are also back. “The receiving core is also veteran and experienced,” Hauck said. “The only posi tion that doesn’t have a ton of experience is quarterback, but we feel very strongly that those players can get the job done for us. Our tight ends are young, but our two sophomores have played a lot for us and both have started.” Hilliard begins his senior campaign ranked second in school history with 2,884 rushing yards for 34 touchdowns. He needs 1,187 yards to pass the all-time leader, Yohance Humphery, who gained 4,070 yards from 1998-2001. All-league center Jeff Marshall gradu ated, but the Griz have the crux of their starters back on the O-line with the likes of tackles Cody Balogh (14 starts) and Brent Russum (10 starts), and guards Co lin Dow (14 starts) and Terran Hillesland (10 starts). Talented sophomores Dan Beaudin and Steve Pfahler combined for 14 starts at tight end. • QUARTERBACK: Junior Cole Bergquist is the only signal-caller who has had any starting experience (he is 6-3 as a starter over the past two seasons) and might have the inside track, although he and promis ing redshirt freshman Andrew Selle carried their battle to start into fall drills. Sopho more letterman Clint Stapp and “greyshirt” Jeff Larson are also in the mix. Bergquist led UM to a 36-7 win over South Dakota State last season in his only start, while as a redshirt freshman he passed for 1,275 yards and eight touchdowns.

Junior quarterback Cole Bergquist

“Not having named a starter going into fall camp is not a concern,” Hauck said. “We want the competition to continue. We have several players at that position who will play this fall. It’s my hope that the com petition at that position in fall camp will make it that much stronger.” • RUNNING BACK: Hilliard, who missed last season due to injury and is a two-time first team All-Big Sky selection, rushed for 1,322 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2005. Junior Greg Coleman started UM’s season opener at Iowa, but he too was lost early last season because of an injury. Bradshaw was UM’s leading rusher last season with 572 yards and a team-high 10 touchdowns and was an honorable mention all-con ference pick. Veteran Brady Green, who was second on the team with 520 yards rushing, graduated, while Brooks-Fletcher rushed for 479 yards. “Our preference is to play with a big back,” Hauck said. “If you go back a cou ple of years to when we had Lex and Jus tin Green in the backfield that was highly successful for us,” Hauck said. “That’s not to discount Reggie Bradshaw and Thomas Brooks-Fletcher, who are both guys who can contribute, along with (junior) Andrew Schmidt.” • OFFENSIVE LINE: This should be a major strength for the Griz this season. Not only does UM return a bevy of starters like Ba logh (26 career starts) at left tackle, along with Russum, Dow, and Hillesland, but also in the mix is a group of both experienced veterans and young players. Balogh was first team All-Big Sky and tabbed third team All-American by the Sports Network a year ago, while Russum

was honorable mention all-league. Sopho more Levi Horn also started at right tackle last season when Russum was sidelined with an injury. Also at tackle are promising sopho more Chris Dyk, while senior letterman Ryan Gustafson can play guard of tackle. Both Dyk and Gustafson missed last sea son with injuries but will be ready to play in 2007. The center position received a big boost when Dow was moved there this past spring. He has excelled at his new position. Dow was a first team All-Big Sky pick at right guard last season. Along with Dow, sophomore Dan Girard and redshirt freshman Nick Lebsock provide depth. At guard, Hillesland, Dan Carter (one start), senior Eric Michel (four starts), and Oklahoma transfer J.D. Quinn are all ex pected to play this season. “We have a big, good-looking offensive line, that as I mentioned before, has excel lent depth,” Hauck said. “We can go two deep across the board on our offensive line. They are all very capable players.”

younger players push the veteran players a bit. That has a tendency to improve the level of play on the field. We return a deep and talented group there.”

• WIDE RECEIVER: The top four receivers from last season are back in Allen, Bagley, Chambers, and junior Mike Ferriter. Allen was a first team all-league pick last season and had a team-high 801 yards receiving. Bagley had a team-best 55 receptions. Chambers had a team-best eight touch down catches. Bagley and Chambers were both honorable mention all-league choic es. Ferriter had 28 grabs for 384 yards. Quality depth is provided by juniors Rob Schulte and Matt Troxel. Promising sophomores Marc Mariani and Tyler Palm er performed very well this past spring. “We have a diverse group of wide re ceivers,” Hauck said. “It’s good to see the

*2007 football

• TIGHT END: Beaudin and Pfahler make this a strong position, and redshirt fresh man Robert Overton will also contribute. Sophomore Kevin Klaboe was an all league pick at h-back/fullback a year ago. “It’s a good-looking group of players,” Hauck said. “They all run well, and they can catch and are aggressive blockers. They’re physical and they certainly look the part. They are all hard workers and we expect them to be extremely productive for us this year. Kevin does a lot of good things for us out of the h-back position.” • KICKER: Senior Dan Carpenter was named first team All-American by the As sociated Press last year when he made 24-of-30 field goals and led the nation by making 1.71 three-pointers a game.

DEFENSIVE OVERVIEW Montana was ranked ninth in the coun try in total defense, allowing 266.4 yards a game. They were also ranked among the national leaders in rushing defense (ninth, giving up 106.8 yards a game), scor ing defense (14th, allowing 16.1 points a game), and 29th in turnover margin (+ .5 0 a game). All seven starters back on “D” were all league selections in 2006. There are also 30 lettermen back. First-team all-conference players re turning include Biermann, strong safety Colt Anderson, and free safety Torrey Thomas. Starting senior linebackers Tyler Joyce, Kyle Ryan, and Loren Utterback, are all back, as is junior tackle Craig Mettler.

* 11 k I f * 't » ^ Joyce, Ryan, Utterback and Mettler were honorable mention All-Big Sky picks in ‘06. Joyce and Ryan tied for the team lead with 115 tackles each. They were followed by Utterback (103 total tackles), Anderson (92 TT), and Biermann (78 TT). Biermann had a team-high 13.5 stops for losses and 11 sacks. Thomas led UM with four inter ceptions. Another key returner is senior punter Tyson Johnson, a three-year starter who missed last season due to injury. “I am enthused about our defense in the way that they played last year and the number of players we have back,” Hauck said. “We have to replace some defen sive linemen, but our front kids had a big spring, and I expect them to produce. “Last year our defense led the league in every relevant category and was dominat ing week-in and week-out,” Hauck contin ued. “I don’t know when, or if, w e’ve played better defense around here. Certainly it’s hard to gage and compare one defense to another, but it had to be one of the better defenses in league history.”

• DEFENSIVE END: Biermann, a first team All-Big Sky pick who finished 11th in the balloting for the Buck Buchanan Award last season, had team-highs of 13.5 stops for loss and 11 sacks, and was fifth on the team with 78 tackles. “We lost two all-conference players (at defensive end) from last year in Dustin Dlouhy and Mike Murphy, and ‘Murph’ made several All-American teams, so that position has been a focal point for us in the off-season,” Hauck said. “Kroy Biermann was a finalist for the Buchanan Award last year. We hope that he continues his strong play and even upgrades it this year. We fully expect him to be in double-digits in sacks and tackles for loss this season. He’s poised to have a great year.” Junior Mike Stadnyk (6-3, 260) returns after a redshirt year due to injury and will be the other starter at D-end. Stadnyk’s return should help to offset the loss of Murphy and Dlouhy, two of UM ’s all-time career sacks leaders, who both gradu ated. Depth will be provided by junior Karl Pitcher, sophomores Jace Palmer, George Mercer, and Austin Mullins, and up-andcoming redshirt freshman Tyler Hobbs. “Mike Stadnyk is coming off a redshirt year and really looks the part,’’Hauck said. “He had a good spring practice. We have a bunch of players there who have not had a lot of playing time and we need to get some production out of that group, but if spring ball was any indication of that, those guys should have a nice season.” .

games last season and was an honor able mention All-Big Sky pick, while senior Kelly Kain had three starts. Junior Jesse Carlson has seen a lot of playing time, but continues to be plagued by injuries. Sophomore lettermen Jackson Ledgerwood and Paul LaMantia should both help, along with redshirt freshmen Alex Verlanic and Carson Bender. “We had a four-man rotation at defensive tackle and we lost one (senior Kerry Mullan) of those four players to graduation,” Hauck said. “Kain, Mettler, and Carlson all have playing experience, and beyond that we will have to see who can work their way into that position. Carson Bender is a red shirt freshman who we moved inside this spring and he really looks the part. Alex Verlanic is making great progress, and Paul LaMantia has a chance to make an impact.” • LINEBACKER: Joyce, Ryan, and Utterback had 41 of 42 possible starts at linebacker last season, and they are now in their third season in starting roles. Excellent depth will be provided by se niors Alex Hawthorne and Muckie Fore man, along with junior Tyler Corwin. Also looking to contribute are junior Tom Mar tin, sophomore Tyler Pelluer, and redshirt freshman Severin Campbell. Junior Shawn Lebsock underwent off-season surgery and may have to redshirt this season. “Our linebackers are a good-looking group of players,” Hauck said. “They can all run, they’re good hitters, and there are a lot of all veterans in that group. They are all smart players as well. W e’ve got great po tential for a big season by our linebackers.” • CORNERBACK: Seniors Chris Clark and Quinton Jackson ended spring drills com

• SAFETY: Thomas, a senior, and Ander son, a junior, both started all 14 contests last year, and were fourth and eighth (tie) on the team in tackles with 92 and 51, re spectively. Senior strong safety Van Cooper Jr. is a proven player, and sophomore safeties Shann Schillinger and Brandon Fisher could both see playing time. “Certainly since we return two firstteam all-conference players we feel like the safety position is going to be a strength for us,” Hauck said. “The best thing about that spot is that both players are being pushed by Van Cooper and Shann Schillinger for playing time, and Brandon Fisher is trying to get in the mix as well. We feel very good about that position and our depth there.”

SPECIAL TEAMS OVERVIEW • KICKER/PUNTER: Johnson was ranked among the FCS punting leaders from 2003-05. He was a second team all-league pick two seasons ago and was ranked 17th in the country, averaging 41.03 yards a punt. Carpenter was a first team All-American kicker last year. He also handled the punt ing duties last year because of Johnson’s injury and was an honorable mention all conference choice, averaging 41.9 yards an attempt. “I expect our kicking game to be strong again,” Hauck said. “Our punter and kick er are veterans. We expect our kicking game to make a difference for us again this year.”

2007 NON-LEAGUE SCHEDULE The Grizzlies open the season at home against Southern Utah on Sept. 1, then host Fort Lewis Sept. 8, followed by an open date and then a Sept. 22 contest against Albany. “We don’t take any games lightly, and I think our pre-league schedule is a good one,” Hauck said. “Southern Utah returns a lot of starters. Fort Lewis is on the rise and had one of its best seasons ever last year. Albany beat three ranked teams last year in Delaware, Central Connecticut, and Lehigh. Southern Utah went down and beat Texas State, which was a national semi-finalist two years ago, and they had Cal Poly on the ropes losing to them in the final minutes, so they are a force to be reckoned with.”

BIG SKY CONFERENCE SCHEDULE Montana has four home Big Sky games and four on the road, starting with its annu al Homecoming game on Sept. 29 against Weber State. The Griz play three of their final four games on the road, the finale be ing the 107th Griz-Bobcat clash in Boze man on Nov. 17. “We are going for 10 straight conference championships, and we’re excited about the opportunity to again defend our title,” Hauck said. “As is the case in any confer ence, you need to go play at an optimum level every Saturday if you expect to win. It doesn’t matter if you are at home or on the road, you need to go out and play your tail off in order to get wins in your conference season; that goes for every league in the country, not just ours.”

• RETURNS: Harris’ shoes will be hard to fill, as he averaged 14.5-yards per punt re turn, which ranked him eighth in the coun try, and he returned two punts for scores. Schulte was ranked second in the league, averaging 22.3 yards per kickoff return. Schulte, Brooks-Fletcher, Clark, Mariani, Bradshaw, Chase Reynolds, and Troxel are all competing for roles as re turners. “Going into fall camp both the punt and kickoff return positions are wide open and up in the air,” Hauck said. “That may be something that continues until we get into our conference season,” Hauck said. “Early in the season you’re going to see a lot of players get an opportunity to show what they’ve got.” Senior punter Tyson Johnson

Colt Anderson came out of nowhere. He was a high school running back who came in here as a walk-on. He went from a walk-on to first team All-Big Sky Conference. A year ago he earned himself a scholarship based on his performance in spring practice. Then, last fall, he had a great year and was named first team all-league. He's a great tackier and is an ideal strong safety. It's great to have a guy from Butte performing to that level because he brings an intensity and a real love for the game. He's a guy who leads by example in both the weight room and on the field. ** -H e a d Coach Bobby Hauck

• Montana: This will be Ryan’s third sea son as a starter. He has started 26 games in a row. He is 25th in school history with 1,248 career receiving yards. His 725 yards last season rank him 27th in single season history.

Our young tight ends did a nice job lost year, and Dan was the veteran of the group being a redshirt freshman. They look the part. They all run well and are good blockers. They are the complete package. As they learn the offense and become more involved, they will up their production level. Dan has had a real nice transition from being a redshirt to being a full-tim e player. The play that sticks out in my mind is the big touch down run by Dan against McNeese State in the first round of the l-AA playoffs.

0RTHERL

The Big Sky Conference enters its 45th year of athletic com petition and has expanded its footprint across the West with the membership of The University of Northern Colorado in July of 2006. The Big Sky is an NCAA Division I member in all sports, with member institutions classified as FCS in football. The league has become one of the strongest Division I conferences in the West and is a national leader in FCS football. • The Big Sky C onference was established in 1963 by six charter members - Idaho, Idaho State, Gonzaga, Montana, Montana State and Weber State. Those six schools formed the foundation of the Big Sky before the league expanded in 1970 by adding Boise State and Northern Arizona. Gonzaga left the Sky in 1979 and was replaced by Nevada, which gave the league eight members. The conference grew to nine schools in 1987 with the addition of Eastern Washington. • The 1990s saw change in the makeup of the league, begin ning in 1992 when Nevada departed and put the Big Sky back at eight teams. In 1996 Boise State and Idaho left and at the same time the conference added Portland State, Sacramento State and Cal State Northridge. The Big Sky maintained nine teams for five years before Cal State Northridge departed in the spring of 2001 .

• With the addition of Northern Colorado, the Big Sky hasspread across seven states spanning from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountain Front. The Big Sky is represented along the entire west coast with schools in Washington, Oregon and California. League schools also range up and down the Rocky Mountains with institutions in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and Colorado. Of the eight western-most states in the contiguous United States only one, Nevada, is not represented in the Big Sky. On Feb 25, 1963, the name Big Sky was adopted by the six presidents of the charter members as the name of the new con ference. The name Big Sky originated in a novel written by the late A.B. (Bud) Guthrie of Great Falls, Mont., in 1947 entitled “The Big Sky.” Jack Hollowell, a former Montana advertising director, promoted the Big Sky theme for the Treasure State, and Harry Missildine of the Spokane Spokesman-Review called for the newly formed league to be named the Big Sky Conference in his column dated Feb. 2 0 ,1 9 6 3 . • The Big Sky sponsors championships in 14 sports, includ ing men’s and women’s cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field, basketball and tennis. In addition, there are also cham pionships in football, and women’s volleyball, golf and soccer. • The 2007-08 season will mark the 20th year that the Big Sky Conference will sponsor championships in women’s sports. The former Mountain West Conference existed from 1982-88, sponsoring championships for women’s sports at the same institu tions the Big Sky had men’s programs. The Big Sky merged with the Mountain West in 1988, forming one league for both men and women. • Doug Fullerton, the fifth commissioner of the Big Sky Conference, will enter his 13th year at the helm. Fullerton took over the Big Sky on July 1,1995, replacing longtime commissioner Ron Stephenson. Stephenson served the league for 14 years. Steve Belko was the commissioner from 1977-81 while John Roning held the post from 1971-77. The first league commissioner was Jack Friel, who served from 1963-71.

PLAYOFF

Montana is one of the NCAA Football Championship Subdivi sion’s (formerly called Division l-AA) most successful programs in the new millennium, playing for three national championships. The Griz won the title in 2001 and was the runner-up in 2000 and 2004. Montana has posted 80 wins from 2000-06 — an average of 11.4 victories a season. In 2006, the Grizzlies added to their FCS record by making their 14th straight trip to the playoffs and narrowly missed playing for their sixth national title in 12 years. Montana dropped the season opener at 16th-ranked Iowa then reeled off 11 wins in a row, finishing 12-2 overall and a perfect 8-0 in the Big Sky Conference. The Grizzlies have now won or shared nine consecutive league championships and won league titles 12 of the past 14 seasons, dating back to1993. UM’s 12-win season was especially impressive because it lost Lex Hilliard, a 2006 Walter Payton Award candidate at run ning back, for the season to an injury in fall camp. Early in the year, halfback Greg Coleman, Hilliard’s backup, and senior punter Tyson Johnson were lost for the season. But, the Griz overcame

nois 20-3 in a quarterfinal contest, but dropped a 19-17 contest to third-ranked UMass in the semifinals. The Griz-UMass game was televised nationally on ESPN2. Montana’s 2006 playoff berth was its 17th - tying Eastern Ken tucky for the most in FCS history. The Griz finished the season ranked third by the Sports Network. Fourth-year Head Coach Bobby Hauck became the first Griz mentor in history to win four straight Big Sky titles.

On offense, Swogger threw 17 touchdown passes, while UM’s “ABC” wideouts, Eric Allen, Ryan Bagley, and Craig Chambers, combined for 147 catches and 17 touchdowns. Running backs Reggie Bradshaw, Brady Green, and Thomas Brooks-Fletcher rushed for a total of 19 touchdowns. A young defense led the Big Sky in several key categories. Overall, the Griz “D” was ninth in the FCS in total defense, allowing 226.4 yards a game. In the FCS playoffs, Montana defeated 22-ranked McNeese State 31-6 in a first-round game, then beat No.10 Southern llli-

Montana was 8-4 overall and 5-2 in the Big Sky, receiving an at-large bid into the playoffs. The Griz were led by Hilliard who rushed for 1,322 yards - the second most in school history -- and an opportunistic defense which was ranked sixth in the country in turnover margin at +1.08. The ninth-ranked Griz hosted a first-round playoff game and suffered a rare home loss, losing 35-21 to 10th-ranked Cal Poly.

Montana was 12-3 in 2004 and 6-1 in the Big Sky, winning an other league title, and advanced to the FCA championship game for the fifth time in the last 11 years. The team was led by senior quarterback Craig Ochs and an op portunistic defense. Ochs, now an assistant coach at UM, passed for 3,807 yards and 33 touchdowns and set a league record with a completion percentage of 68.7%. The Griz defense was ranked third in the country in turnover margin ( +1.47) and had 38 take aways. Hilliard tied the school record for touchdown runs with 17, while senior wide receiver Jefferson Heidelberger had the second most receiving yards in single-season history with 1,240. In the playoffs the host Griz beat Northwestern State (56-7), New Hampshire (47-17), and Sam Houston State (34-13), losing 31-21 to James Madison in the l-AA championship game.

Montana was 9-4 overall and 5-2 in conference and received an at-large bid into the playoffs, losing a 43-40 double overtime thriller in a first-round game to visiting Western Illinois. Junior halfback Justin Green rushed for 1,146 yards and 14 touchdowns. Senior kicker Chris Snyder set four NCAA career records in the FCS with 394 points and 182 PATs, and set a single season record with 123 kicking points in e03 and set another mark by connecting on 126 consecutive PATs. Defensive end Tim Bush finished his career as Montana’s alltime sacks (32.5) and tackles for loss (50) leader and his sack total of the second most in FCS history.

From 1997-99 the Griz lost three first-round playoff games in a row. However, in 1999 Montana set a Big Sky record by making its seventh consecutive FCS playoff appearance. The old standard of six straight was set by former Big Sky member Idaho from 1985-90. In the 1999 playoffs, Youngstown State, coached by current Ohio State mentor Jim Tressell, kicked a late field goal for a 30-27 win. About a week after that loss, Griz mentor Mick Dennehy took the head job at Utah State, where he coached until 2004. In 1998 Montana suffered its worst playoff loss ever, a 52-9 shell-lacking at Western Illinois.

Walter Payton Award winning Griz quarterback Dave Dicken son passed for 1,219 yards and 11 touchdowns, as Montana won its first three playoff games by an almost unbelievable combined score of 163-14. In the title game, Dickenson orchestrated a 12-play, 72-yard scoring drive, culminating with a 25-yard field goal by Andy Lar son with 39 seconds left. The key play in that winning drive came on a fourth-and-three from the 50-yard line, when Dickenson hit wide receiver Mike Erhardt on a short slant pass for a 20-yard gain and a crucial first down. Senior receiver Matt Wells had both of Montana’s touchdowns, scoring on Dickenson passes of 24 yards and one yard. Montana set FCS playoff records with 125 first downs, 137 pass completions, 197 pass attempts, and 1,703 yards passing.

The Griz went 13-2 and advanced to the championship game for the third time in six seasons in 2000, losing 27-25 to Georgia Southern. Starting Griz quarterback Drew Miller was injured late in the first quarter, and Edwards, a sophomore, was called into action. The Griz trailed 20-3 at halftime in a rain-soaked Finley Stadium but took a 23-20 lead early in the fourth quarter on a scoring run by Humphery. However, that lead was short-lived as Eagle halfback and Walter Payton Award winning halfback Adrian Peterson broke loose for a 57-yard touchdown run for the game-winner.

Dickenson was re-injured early in the win over McNeese, and he was not able to play in the semifinal - a 28-9 loss at Youngstown State. In 1993, Montana rolled to a 10-1 regular-season record, with the only blemish a 35-30 loss at Oregon. After that loss to the Ducks, the Griz reeled off nine straight wins and had a perfect 7-0 Big Sky slate, winning their first league title since 1982, but the season ended abruptly in a49-48 heart-breaking, last-second firstround loss to visiting Delaware.

This will be the 22nd season that the Uni versity of Montana football team has called Washington-Grizzly Stadium at John Hoyt field home. Since that time the Griz have played 152 games and have an overall re cord of 133-19 for a winning percentage of 87.9%. The first game played in the stadium was on October 18, 1986, a 38-31 come-from-behind win over Idaho State. During the past two seasons Montana has had the highest average attendance of any NCAA Football Championship Subdivision team, averaging 22,600 fans in nine home games (six regular-season games and three FCS contests). Mon tana had 140,989 fans attend its six regularseason games last year for an average of 23,498 per contest. Three of those games rank in the top seven for all-time attendance highs in Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The 24,018 fans at the 106th annual Griz-Cat game in Missoula in 2006 was a stadium re cord. In 2003 Montana set Big Sky Conference records with 163,532 total fans in seven home games for an average attendance of 23,362.

PLACE

Not only has Montana won 133 games in its 21 seasons in Washington-Grizzly Stadi um, but beginning in 1994 the Griz reeled off 30 straight home victories. The win streak began with a 41-7 win over Sonoma State on Sept. 3 and ended with a 40-35 loss to East ern Washington on Oct. 18 of 1997. UM’s 30 consecutive home wins are the fifth most in FCS history. (The record of 39 home wins in a row was set by Georgia Southern from 1997-2001.)

STADIUM

EXP

Washington-Grizzly Stadium will undergo its third expansion at the conclusion of the 2007 football season. The eastside expan sion will house a 500-seat “Stadium Club” with two membership levels, called the “Can yon Room, ” with 125 seats inside and 125 seats outside, and the “Hellgate Terrace,” with 250 seats. There will also be 375 Grizzly Scholarship Association priority seats, locat ed between the 25-and-40-yard lines on both sides of the 50, as well as 1,150 non-priority seats located on the 10-to-25-yard lines. The third expansion will increase the capacity of Washington-Grizzly Stadium to approximate ly 25,308. The second expansion occurred in the spring and summer of 2003, as approximate ly 4,000 seats were added to the north end zone section, increasing the stadium capac ity to its current 23,183. In the spring of 1995 the stadium under went its first expansion in the north and south end zones. At that time there were 12,500 per manent seats, and when seating was avail able (weather-permitting) in the grass end zones, it made the capacity around 15,000. GrizVision, a state-of-the-art video and message center, was added in 2002 and fea tures game statistics, player profiles, digital replays, and shots of the crowd. The GrizVi sion screen is one of the largest in the FCS, measuring 26 feet by 36 feet, and it used to be housed in New York City’s Times Square. A natural-grass stadium gave way to SprinTurf prior to the 2001 season at a cost of one million dollars, and was paid for by an anonymous donor.

Jim ITDay, Director of Athletics Jim O’Day was named Director of Athletics at The University of Montana by UM President George Dennison on June 30,2005. Prior to that, he spent almost four years as UM’s Director of Development for Intercollegiate Athletics, and three years as Assistant Director of the Grizzly Athletic Association (now the Grizzly Scholarship Association). As Director of Development, O’Day was responsible for major gift development as it pertains to athletics and served as the liaison between UM Athletics and The University of M ontana Foundation. At the GAA, he was involved in annual gift fund-raising. O’Day returned to his alma mater in 1998 following a lengthy career in the print media business. After graduating from the UM School of Journalism in 1980, O’Day was the sports editor of the Daily Interlake newspaper in Kalispell, Mont., for two years. Following the death of his father in 1982, he returned to his hometown of Cut Bank, Mont., to assist his mother as a reporter/editor of the twice-weekly, and family-owned, Western Breeze newspaper. In 1987, he purchased the newspaper from his mother and served as owner/ publisher until selling the business to his employees in 1998. He then relocated to Missoula to begin work with the GAA.

In 1986, he was selected as a member of the UM Alumni Association’s Board of Delegates, and his volunteer work with that organization eventually led to his involvement in other UM activities. He organized the Golden Triangle Chapter of the GAA in 1992 and eventually became the state board president until his appointment at UM in 1998. O’Day was the 1991 recipient of The University of Montana Service Award. Jim and his wife Kathy have three sons: Chris, Kevin and Brian, Chris and Kevin are students at The University of Montana, while Brian will be a junior at Missoula Hellgate High School in the fall o f2007. As Director of Athletics at UM, O’Day oversees an athletic department with a $11.5 million annual budget and a staff of more than 70 people. The challenge each year is to produce almost $8 million in private funding to support and operate the program. In addition to nationally-recognized teams in football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball, UM also competes in the Big Sky Conference in die NCAA-sanctioned sports of men’s and women’s tennis, women’s golf, men’s and womens cross country, men’s and womens indoor and outdoor track and field, womens soccer and women’s volleyball.
