The University of Montana’s Katrina Drennen and Bryan Waldhauser were recognized as the schools 2012 Grizzly Cup recipients. Originally the award was presented annually to one Montana senior (male) student-athlete who excelled athletically on the held/court/ track, as well as in academics, and who also represented the University well in the com­ munity. Starting in 2009, the Grizzly Cup was awarded to two athletes: one given to UM’s male student-athlete of the year, while an­ other goes to the schools outstanding female student-athlete. Drennen was a four-time All-Big Sky Confer­ ence performer in cross country and a fivetime Big Sky track champion. Waldhauser, a former walk-on, began UMs Master of Business program in the fall of 2011 and maintained a 3.56 GPA in that curricu­ lum. He earned his undergraduate degree in business management at Montana, accumu­ lating a 3.62 GPA. He was voted to the 2011 Capital One Academic All-American Division I football first team (along with teammate Bobby Alt) by Co-SIDA (College Sports Information Directors of America).

An impressive collection of 146 Montana student-athletes were treated to dinner in recognition of having cumulative GPAs of 3.0 or better during the 20th Annual Robert O. Lindsay honors banquet in April of 2012. Five men and women won the prestigious Presidents Award for having the Department of Athletics’ highest GPA for the sprin 2011 and fall 2011 semesters. All five had a perfect 4.0 cumulative GPA for their collegiate careers. Montana won the 2011-12 Big Sky Confer­ ence Men’s All-Sports Trophy in May, 2012. It is the first Men’s All-Sports Trophy for the Grizzlies since 1970-71 and just their second since the inauguration of the Big Sky Confer­ ence in 1963. Montana is currently in possession of the Sterlings Bank Presidents Cup. The Grizzlies won their second Cup in July of 2011 with second-place finishes in both athletics and academics. 1


ACADEMICS & COMMUNITY SERVICE INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS NEW ACADEMIC CENTER (Infrastructure and Student-Athlete Success Go Hand-In-Hand) With support from the university ad­ ministration and private donors, the athletic facility improvement plan in­ cludes the following: Construct an academic center, meeting rooms and additional offices in the open space between the current athletic com­ plex and the student recreation center (see artist rendition to the left). Lower level will remain a lobby to accommo­ date fire code restrictions and the Adams Center.

strfKOS

Relocate the current weight room to a site to be finalized. The new strength and conditioning center would feature at least 10,000 square feet of training sp- ce to serve all student-athletes.

JB ■h h h h h T

Renovate space currently used as the M ontana mens locker room, academic center and weight room into multiple locker rooms for the sports of mens basketball, football, mens tennis, and mens track and field. Addition of locker rooms will also open space to help tlie uni­ versity host more outside events like concerts and high school tournaments. All of these renovations will help the university in its quest to address equity and Title IX issues as well. -.ktmmi;" t

Though service activities and outreach to the community have been taking place for years with individual contributions, spring 2008 began the official induction of the “Griz hi the Community” service program. The program enables student-athletes to have a holistic college experience by giving back to the surrounding community, speaking to local school children, and serving as role models in the area. Student-athletes from every team have made over 200 volunteer appearances since the beginning of the program.

The Home of the Grizzlies

M

i R

This will be the 27th season that The University of Montana foot­ ball team calls Washington-Grizzly Stadium (capacity 25,217)/John Hoyt field their home. Montana was ranked third at the Division 1 Football Champi­ onship Subdivision level in attendance, averaging 24,878 fans (201, 624) in eight home games, including two playotf contests. (Appala­ chian State led the nation, averaging 26,211 in seven home games). The Grizzlies broke their all-time attendance record in 2011, as they drew 26,066 tans in a 17-14 victory over’ 10th -ranked Eastern Washington, the defending FCS champion. The only other time the Griz have topped the 26,000 mark was in 2010 against Montana State (26,019) - the first time more than 26,000 fans had attended any game in the state of Montana. Ih e Grizzlies not only broke the Washington-Grizzly Stadium attendance mark in the EWU game, but during the 2011 season they had three of their largest crowds ever: 25,919 (Northern Colorado), 25,855 versus Cal Poly (the largest attendance ever in a home open­ er), and 25,744 against Portland State. All six attendance marks in UMs 2011 season rank in the top 25 all-time. In 2010 Montana was second in the country in attendance (av­ eraging a Big Sky Conference record 25,448 fans per game), while three seasons ago, in 2009, Montana led the nation in attendance, at 24,417 in nine home games. The Griz have led the FCS in average attendance in 2005, 2006, and 2009, and was ranked second in 2007, 2008, and 2010. The Griz played just three games in Washington-Grizzly Sta­ dium in their inaugural season in 1986, and that first game on Oc­ tober 18, 1986 was a 38-31 come-from-behind win over Idaho State. Since that first contest the Grizzlies have an overall record of 171-21 (89.1%). Over the past six seasons the Grizzlies are 37-1 (.974) at rhome in regular-season games. Montana is 31-1 (.969) in Washington-Grizzly Stadium over the last four seasons. UM has gone undefeated in 2008, 2009, and 2011. The Griz are 46-3 (.939) in WGS over the past six years. UM set a conference record with 27 consecutive regular-season

No Place Like Home Not only has Montana won 171 games in its 26 seasons of playing in Washington-Grizzly Stadium, but it has gone undefeated 10 times, including three of the last four years. Starting the 1994 season, 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 EWU on Oct. 18, 1997. Montanas 30 consecutive home wins are the fifth longest streak in FCS history.

New Lights For 2012 The Grizzlies don’t have any night games this season, but they will still be using the newly installed lights in WGS later in the season on dark and cloudy days and when it gets darker earlier in the day. When the Big Sky Conference recently signed a television contract with ROOTS Sports each school in the league was required to install lights in their stadiums. The new lights, installed by Musco Lighting based in Oskaloosa, Iowa, made their debut on Saturday, April 14, at UMs annual spring game. The lights are of the highest quality available, and feature “hori­ zontal footcandles” in the 120-125 range, which means the Washing­ ton-Grizzly Stadium has the ability to host all levels of NCAA tele­ vised football playoff games. It also includes lighting in the tailgate/' parking areas. The project cost was approximately $950,000, and includes a 25year or 20,000 hours service agreement.

Stadium Expansions Washington-Grizzly Stadium underwent its third expansion, at a cost of approximately $6.5 million, prior to the 2008 football sea­ son. The eastside expansion now houses a 500-seat “Stadium Club” with two membership levels: the “Canyon Room,” which has 125 seats inside and 125 seats outside, and the “Hellgate Terrace,” which has 250 seats. The expansion in 2008 provided 375 Grizzly Scholarship Asso­ ciation priority seats, which are located between the 25-and-40-yard lines and on both sides of the 50-yard line, as well as 1,150 non­ priority seats located on the 10-to-25-yard lines. This expansion in­ creased the current seating capacity of Washington-Grizzly Stadium to 25,217. The second expansion occurred in the spring and summer of 2003, and approximately 4,000 seats were added to the north end zone section, increasing the stadium capacity to 23,183, with a cost around $3.5 million. In the spring of 1995 the stadium underwent its first expansion in the north and south end zones. At that time there were 12,500 permanent seats, and seating was available, weather-permitting, in the grass end zones, which made the capacity around 15,000. The cost of that expansion was about $2.5 million. GrizVision, a state-of-the-art video and message center, was added in 2002. GrizVision displays game statistics, player profiles, digital replays, and shots of the crowd. The screen is one ot the larg­ est in the FCS, measuring 26 feet by 36 feet, and it came from New York City and Times Square. A natural-grass stadium gave way to SprinTurf prior to the 2001 season at a cost of about $1 million, which was paid for by an anonymous donor. The field was named “John Hoyt Field” in 2001 at the request of the anonymous donor, in honor of Hoyt, a long-time Grizzly booster, who passed away in March of that year. The locker rooms measure 4,000-plus square feet. Adams Center features a 7,000-square foot weight room, a 4,500-square foot ath­ letic treatment center, the Jacobson Academic Center, and a meeting room with big screen videos. The womens locker room covers 4,000 square feet. There are also three other meeting rooms totaling 2,000 square feet.

Stadium History & Nam esake *

The plans for an on-campus football facility at Montana came to fruition in August of 1985 when Missoula businessman Dennis R. Washing­ ton and the employees of Washington Corporations provided a gift of SI million, hence the name of Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The initial cost of the stadium was around S3.2 million. There are 49 private boxes located on the east and west sides of the stadium, and they are individually decorated and lurnished.

Green had an outstanding two-year career at Montana, rushing for a total of 1,784 yards in 2003 and 2004, which ranks him eighth in school history Prior to his senior season he was touted by UM as a Walter Payton candidate. As a junior in 2003 he rushed 252 times for 1,146 yards and 14 touchdowns and was chosen the Big Sky Conferences “Newcomer of the Year.” His rushing yards and touchdowns that season rank him fourth in Montanas single-season history. He was a second team all-league pick as a junior. After his Griz career he was a fifth round draft pick by the Baltimore Ravens, and had a four-year career in the NFL. He played three seasons at fullback for the Ravens, and then moved on to the Phoenix Cardinals, and played there for one season.

Griz Football MONTANA GRIZZLIES: 2012 SEASON OUTLOOK MISSOULA, MONTANA — The Univer­ sity of Montana Grizzlies, who return just seven starters this season, be tested early in 2012, as three of their first five opponents were nation­ ally ranked in the preseason polls. (See page 28 for more information on UM’s opponents this season). After just a one-year hiatus, the Grizzlies re­ turned to their old form, as in 2011 they went 11-3, advanced to the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) playoffs for the 18th time in the last 19 seasons, and won (or shared) their 16th Big Sky Conference title in the past 19 years. Nationally, the Grizzlies were ranked third in the The Sports Networks final poll, and fourth in the FCS Coaches’ Poll. UM employs the spread offense and has five starters back on that side of the football. Last season the offense was ranked 16th in the Foot­ ball Championship Subdivision in scoring (33.86 ppg), 17th in rushing (210.86 ypg), and 21st in total offense (420.36 ypg). Perhaps the most impressive offensive stat is that the Griz al­ lowed just .71 sacks a game, which ranked them sixth in the nation. “Last season I thought we were a really, really good offensive football team,” said head coach Mick Delaney. “We had great balance between the pass and run. Our offensive line was just tremendous; our receivers made big plays and so did our running backs.

*

“Now, the big question is that we have two new coordinators - what are we going to see that is completely different?” he said. “You won’t see anything that’s completely different. You will see the same, fast-tempo pace most of the time. “The next thing that you’ll see is coach (Timm) Rosenbach (UM’s offensive coordina­ tor, who took over for Jonathan Smith, now an assistant coach at Boise State) who has brought what we call the quick passing game,” Delaney said. “If you are under center, it’s a three-step drop; if you’re in the gun,’ it’s catch, gather, and throw. I think that you will see our passing per­ centage sky-rocket. “That lets you do a couple of things,” he con­ tinued. “It lets you get the ball up and out; they are very quick routes. It also is a way to beat a big-pressure, blitz team. I am really excited about that. “The other thing that you will see on offense that is a little bit different is we’ll probably be a little more tight end oriented at times, or tight end and an H-back,” Delaney said. “We will have that capability in short yardage situations and on the goal-line. “I am really excited about the overall prospect of what we have the potential to be offensively, and that is a team that can move the ball and score a lot of points,” he said. Two of the six starters back on offense were all-conference picks a year ago. Senior tight end Greg Hardy (14 starts) was a first team se­ lection, while junior tackle Danny Kistler (who started 14 games at left guard last season), was named to the second team. Other starters returning on offense are senior wide receiver Sam Gratton (14 starts) and senior running backs Peter Nguyen (six starts) and Dan Moore (five starts). Gratton and Nguyen were honorable mention All-Big Sky picks last season. The other starter back is junior center Kjelby Oiland, who had 12 starts at right guard a year ago. Gratton had a team-high (tie) 36 catches a year ago, while Nguyen led the Griz with 835 yards rushing. The Griz defense was a mainstay last season, and was ranked among the FCS in several key categories. UM was 18th in the country in scor­ ing defense (19.93 ppg), 21st in sacks per game (2.57), 23rd in turnover margin (+.79 pg), and 26th in total defense (327.14 ypg). However, Coach Delaney and his staff have had lot of holes to fill on defense, including the league’s defensive player of the year, linebacker Caleb McSurdy. Long-time Griz assistant coach Ty Gregorak is UM’s new defensive coordinator, replacing Mike Breske who left UM to take the same position at Washington State.

John Kanor\$ata a, JK L3 The two starters back on “D” are junior line­ backer John Kanongata’a (11 starts) and junior free safety Bo Tully (eight starts). Kanongata’a was UM’s second leading tackier last season with 93 stops, and a second team all-league selection. Tully is the team’s third leading returning tackier and had 52 stops in eight starts last season. Another key player back is junior Jordan Tripp, a Buck Buchanan Award candidate, who was a starter in 2011 (he started all 11 games in 2010), but lost for the year due to an injury, and was ably replaced by Kanongata’a. “We’re going to have some growing pains on defense,” Delaney said. “We are not going to pressure quite as much like we did with coach Breske, but we will still be a pressure team. I look for the personality of our defense to take over the personality of (defensive coordinator) Ty Gregorak - which is high energy, high emo­ tion, play fast, play hard, be a tough guy, and just go out and make plays.”

OFFENSE: POSITION-BY-POSITION • QUARTERBACK The Griz have two returnees at quarterback, sophomore Shay Smithwick-Hann (6-4, 214) and redshirt freshman Trent McKinney (6-0, 198). Joining the team in call camp is promising youngster Brady Gustafson, a signee from Mon­ tana’s Billings West High School. “Trent McKinney, a freshman, had an out­ standing spring, and Shay Smithwick-Hann, who is so intelligent, and every time he comes in a game he is able to move the football team. I think McKinney’s going to be a special guy, and he just got better each day during spring drills.

“Obviously, Peter is a little guy who has quick feet, great vision, and is physical and a great pass blocker for his size,” Delaney said. “He also catches the ball very well - he’s the whole package. Then Dan, on the other hand, has the size at 230-plus pounds, and he can be tremen­ dously physical. He’s a guy that you send in the game on third-and-one and tell him to get the first down and he can do that. “Then you throw Jordan Canada in, and he’s so much different than either one of them,” Del­ aney said. “The only thing is that Jordan Cana­ da has not played much yet. He’s been injured off and on, but he’s had some flashes of being a big-time college running back. He has speed; he has vision; he has great change of direction. We are going to move him around and try to get him the ball in space. “Those are our three main guys there, but then you add Brett Kirschner, who I think had an outstanding spring and is very capable of helping us,” Delaney said. “He got better, stron­ ger, and faster. Adding Gavin Hagfors in the mix - he’s more of a Danny Moore type of guy. I see him as an H-back, fullback type of guy, a blocker and really good pass receiver.”

- OFFENSIVE LINE Shay Smithwick-Hann, SO QE3

“Brady Gustafson is coming in as a true fresh­ man, and he’s a drop-back guy,” Delaney said. “He has a tremendously strong arm. He’s 6-7, 225, and he can throw the football as well as anybody. I compare him a lot, and maybe that’s unfair, to Brock Osweiler (former Arizona State quarterback) coming out of high school. I think Brady probably has as strong, or a little stronger arm than Brock did back at that time.” Quarterback Jordan Johnson, a junior who started 13 games a year ago, will more-thanlikely miss the 2012 season due to personal rea­ sons. Last season Johnson had 21 touchdowns passes and rushed for four scores.

Fellow junior William Poehls (6-8, 320) will be joining Kistler (6-8, 325) and Oiland (6-4, 295), as a starter on the O-line. Senior Jake Hendrickson (6-3 V2 , 300) should get the nod at left guard, and sophomore Trevor Poole (65, 290) earned the starting job at left tackle in spring drills.

* R U N N I N G BACK The Grizzlies have their top four rushers from a year ago back this season, led by Nguyen (5-8, 182). Sophomore Jordan Canada (5-9,170) was slowed by injuries, but rushed for 580 yards and a team-high 9 touchdowns. Senior halfback/ fullback Dan Moore (5-11, 235) also missed action due to an injury, but was fourth on the team with 430 yards and 7 TDs. Sophomore Brett Kirschner (5-10, 195) also looked good in spring drills, as did redshirt freshman Gavin Hagfors (6-2, 212). “I feel really, really good about our running backs,” Delaney said. “It should be, along with our three (returning starters) offensive linemen and our tight end, strong points for us on the offensive side of the ball.

P eter Nguyen, SR Rf3 “I am so excited and optimistic about that offensive line,” Delaney said. “Let’s start at the center position with Kjelby Oiland, who I expect to be one of the best in the conference. We have one of the (Logan) Hines twins there as well, and Jake Hendrickson can play center too.” There’s solid depth on the offensive line with the likes of redshirt freshmen John Schmaing (6-7, 265) and Zachary Taves (6-4, 260) at tack­ le, and Samson Kaleikini (6-5, 280) at guard. Also in the mix will be junior Jordan Hines (6-4, 295) at guard. The Griz signed five preps, and one or two of whom could vie for playing time. “In our interior there are a lot of possibili­ ties, and we’ve got to figure out a way to get the five best players there,” Delaney said. “Trevor (Poole) is a little under-sized for a Big Sky tack­ le, but he has great leverage and strength and runs very well, so I am excited about his poten­ tial. “We’ve got Max Kelly coming in from Spo­ kane (Gonzaga Prep), who is around 6-7, 275, and I really expect him as a true freshman to add depth to the offensive line,” Delaney said. “Overall, offensive line-wise, we will be led by the great example provided by Kistler, who plays hard on every single play and will bring that work ethic to his fellow linemen.”

Griz Football MONTANA GRIZZLIES: 2012 SEASON OUTLOOK • TIGHT END Hardy (6-5, 245), who has started 25 games in a row, missed spring drills due to an injury, but is expected to be 100 percent by fall camp. Hardy is Montana’s second leading returning tackier and had 22 receptions a year ago, al­ though he did not score a touchdown. The Griz moved junior defensive end Clay Pierson (6-3, 239) to tight end (he played several positions in high school, including wide receiv­ er) and he definitely shores up that spot. Highly touted incoming freshman Hayden Craig, a 6-5, 246-pounder from Dayton (Ore.) High School could be an impact player. Senior Jacob Haas (6-5, 225) also missed spring drills to recover from an injury, and also returns. “I think as people looked at us going into the spring that tight end might be an area a little bit weak, because Greg Hardy had to have surgery so he missed the entire spring, and that was a blessing in disguise for the offensive football team,” Delaney said. “Clay Pierson is a trem en­ dous athlete, and I think that we finally found the right position for him, and he’s made great progress. “Hayden is a freshman coming in, but he’s a big, physical kid,” Delaney said. “We had him in (Grizzly football) camp, and he runs and catch­ es as good as anybody. “We are excited about

those three players, and we also have Jacob Haas coming back, along with Aschan Richards (6-6, 227), who has made tremendous strides.”

* W I D E R E C EI V E R This was an area hit hard by graduation with the loss of Jabin Sambrano and Antwon Moutra, who each started all 14 games last season, combined for 72 catches (36 each), 1,091 yards, and 13 touchdowns, but Gratton, who also did not participate in the spring because of an in­ jury, tied those two for the team lead with 36 receptions and he is also an excellent down field blocker and leader. Senior Bryce Carver (6-1, 180) was slowed by injuries last year and was outstanding this past spring. Two sophomores, Dean Haynes (6-3, 190) and Mitch Saylor (6-5, 217) wTi be factors in 2012 and are vying for starting berths. Junior Cam Warren (5-7, 160) proved this past spring he can contribute. Speedy redshirt freshman transfer (University of Hawaii) Ellis Henderson (6-0,185) could be a factor as well. Three preps are joining the team in fall camp and could figure into the mix. That trio includes sprint standout Taylor Walcott (6-0, 175), from Marist High School (Eugene, Ore.); Ryan Burke (6-4,1 195, Billings’ Central Catholic HS); and Chase Naccarato (5-8,160, Mt. Spokane HS). “Again, like the offensive line and the tight end position, we lost a lot of good players there and people thought that maybe we would not be as good as we have been at wide receiver for the Griz as we have had in the past,” Delaney said. “As we came out of the last two weeks of spring (drills) I couldn’t be happier with our wide re­ ceiver crew. “Sam was unable to play in the spring and that put a lot of pressure on us finding a guy who can stretch the field like Sambrano did,” he said. “I think we found that guy in Sean Haynes. He’s young and has not been on the field much, but he has Jabin’s speed, and he’s probably an inch-and-a-half taller and 20 pounds heavier than Jabin was. He got better every single day. He has to get much more consistent, and you put him with Sam and Bryce Carver - that’s a very good nucleus there. “Cam Warren is a lot like Peter Nguyen, and not real big or real fast, but he has great quicks, and he has a heart that will not quit,” Delaney said. “He will go over the middle and catch every ball, and make that big first down when we need it. Mitch Saylor, at 6-4 or so will go up and get the ball, and is a big, strong physi­ cal guy with better than average speed. Wal­ cott is a speed guy who has run 10.5 in the 100 meters this past spring, and I think he will help

DEFENSE: POSITION-BY-POSITION - DEFENSIVE LINE To call the 2012 defensive unit young might be an understatement, as only one senior is ex­ pected to start this season. There will be four new starters in the “D” front this season for the Grizzlies, although the projected starters do have limited experience. Also, two outstanding players from the high school ranks are expected to contribute right away as true freshmen. That’s not to say that the loss of defensive tackles Tyrone Duncan, Ben Hughes and Bryan Waldhauser, along with ends Bobby Alt and Ryan Fetherston will be easy to replace. Waldhauser was a first team all-league pick, while both ends were honorable mention selections. The heirs-apparent at end are senior Josh Har­ ris (6-5,251) and sophomore Zach Wagenmann (6-3 Vi, 240), while junior Alex Bienemann (62, 295) and sophomore Tonga Takai (6-2, 301) have the inside track at the tackle spots. Also expected to help are redshirt freshman Derek Crittenden (6-3, 250) at end and Jesse Ginn (6-5, 203, RS Fr.), Trevor Rehm (6-3, 244, So.), and Taylor Tuliapupu (6-0, 265, So.) at the tackle position. “Josh is the only one really who has been on the field of that whole crew, and” Delaney said. “Both Alex and Tonga are big, big guys, not real

tall, but very physical. “Again, I’m probably crazy, but I am excited about our defense,” Delaney continued. “Zach Wagenmann is a local guy who has worked hard and got his weight up to around 245 pounds, and has good get-up. Derek Crittenden will be able to play both the open side defensive end and the close side. “Caleb Kidder, from Helena Capital (high school), I believe will really help us as a freshman,”he said. “He was the Gatorade Player of the Year on defense in our state, and he was this and he was that, and every bit of it is welldeserved. “We do have a lot of young guys there, along with Josh Harris, and I think that we will be very formidable on the inside,” Delaney said. “They are young, but we’ve got some talented players on the front.”

Sophomore strong safety Matt Hermanson (6-1 192) is a real talent and was fifth on the team in tackles with 65 last season and tied for the most intercep­ tions (three) as a true freshman despite starting in just one game. Tully (6-2, 197) was also one of the team’s leading tacklers a year ago. Quality depth will be provided by junior Steven Rominger (5-10, 186) and redshirt freshman Connor Lebsock (6-2, 198). Lebsock would have played last season as a true fresh­ man but was injured in fall camp. Jacob Coogan (6-2, 205, Jr.) was one of the leading tacklers at Southwestern College (Calif.) last season and is expected to contribute. “Matt Hermanson just got better and better last season, and Bo has done a very good job at safety for us the past couple of seasons,” Delaney said. “Rominger is one of our most improved players and he adds solid depth, as does Con­ nor Lebsock. We will be very, very young at that position.”

• LINEBACKERS When you consider McSurdy had a teamhigh 131 tackles and was a seventh round draft pick of the Dallas Cowboys, and Alex Shaw the team’s third leading tackier (75) has graduated, it seems hard to believe that UM’s linebacker position could be even stronger this season. Be­ lieve it. With the experience of Kanongata’a (5-11, 230), Tripp (6-3 Vz, 244), plus veterans Brock Coyle (6-2, 240, Jr.) and Josh Stuberg (6-2, 223, Sr.), and an impact player from the junior col­ lege ranks, some talented, young newcomers, you’ve got the makings of a very impressive group at this position. A possible impact player will be sophomore Jeremiah Kose (6-2,225) who was an all-confer­ ence pick at Palomar College last season, where he was second on the team with 88 tackles. Three freshmen - transfer (Washington) Nick Holt (6-0,215), and redshirts Addison Owen (6-2, 220) and Jonathan Richards (6-3, 208) - provide good depth and have outstanding potential. “Linebacker will definitely be the strength of our defense,” Delaney said. “I don’t know if there is a better group of linebackers in our whole division throughout the country. I think we have three to four guys, maybe even five, who can help us, and help us win. “In the middle there is great competition be­ tween Josh and Brock, and the cool thing is that they can both play outside too, so we could move one of them out there if we need to,” he said. “So you have great competition inside, and then on the outside with Jordie Tripp on one side and CJP’ Kanongata’a on the other, you’ve got a lot of talent. Whichever three of those four players on the field make it a very, very solid group. “And then you take the freshmen, starting with Addison Owen, who I think will be a tremendous football player for the Griz,” Delaney continued. “He has size, he has speed, and he has toughness. Jonathan Richards will continue to work hard and improve, and Kose has a chance to help us.”

• SPECIAL TEAMS

Josh Stuberg, SR L13

- C0RNERBACK The Griz lost starters Trumaine Johnson and Houston Roots as well as back-up Donny Lisowski to graduation, and Johnson was a third round NFL draft pick by the St. Louis Rams. Junior Sean Murray (6-1, 195) looks like the starter on the right side, while redshirt fresh­ man Nate Harris (5-10, 180) and sophomore Josh Dennard (5-11,180) are competing for the other spot. Dennard played wide receiver as a true freshman (he played both ways in high school) last season and was moved to defense in the spring. Also in the mix is junior college transfer Anthony Goodwin (6-1, 190), who is expected to play right away. “As far as experience goes, that is by far the least experienced position,” Delaney said. “As far as the whole scheme of the defense goes it might be the most important position. When you make a mistake at corner it’s not like you give up a 10 or 15 yard run - it’s a touchdown. “We’ve got two young guys who really have never played, and one who has played in Sean Murray,” he said. “Sean has really impressed me this spring and this summer. He could be a topnotch cornerback in our division. He’s not there yet -n o t even close. He has to walk-the-walk instead of talk-the-talk, and I think he’s going to do that. Both Nate and Josh are smart, talented players, and they have that corner mentality. What they need is to play, and that’s going to come quickly and early for them.”

Montana has a huge void to fill in its kicking game, as Brody McKnight who handled both the place-kicking and punting duties for the Griz the past two seasons is gone. Last season McKnight tied for sixth in the FCS with 1.5 field goals a game, and he was ranked eighth in punt­ ing, averaging 42.75 yards per attempt. A pair of redshirt freshmen, Chris Lider (6-1, 200) and Stephen Shaw, (6-3,235) are hoping to earn the starting kicking and punting jobs.

Jordan Canada, 5 0 K3 “You’ve got two freshmen who have never been on the field,” Delaney said. “We pressured them and put them in a ton of really different situations in the spring, and I honestly believe talent-wise that we have two outstanding fresh­ men there in Chris Lider and Stephen Shaw. Can they do it? I know they can.” Incoming freshman Harrison Greenberg (58, 155), from Lake Oswego (Ore.) High School, made 85-of-89 PAT attempts in his career, was a kicker and punter as a prep. Senior running back Caleb Walden (5-9, 198) also has the po­ tential to earn the punting job. Sambrano was UM’s primary return man a year ago, but Nguyen averaged 23.8 yards per kickoff return and 9.6 on punt returns in limited action last season. Canada, Moore, Kirschner and Dennard will all be looked at in the return game. “I did tell our players that I expect every starter to be on a special teams somewhere,” he said. “We will put our best players there. Spe­ cial teams, as they have been at Montana in the past, are going to be special.

UM mentor Joe Glenn. Next (Sept. 8) they play FCS powerhouse and nationally-ranked Appa­ lachian State on the road, and then come back home the following Saturday (Sept. 15) to play Liberty, a team that is also nationally ranked in the preseason polls. South Dakota returns 13 starters from a 6-5 team. Appalachian State was 8-4 last season and ranked 12th In the final Sports Networks final poll, and has 17 starters back, while Liberty (73) finished ranked 25th and returns 16 starters. The Griz open Big Sky play on Sept. 22 in Homecoming against a Northern Arizona team that returns 15 starters. The fifth game of the season is on the road on Sept. 29 against league nemesis Eastern Washington, also ranked in the preseason polls. The Eagles have 17 starters back from a 6-5 squad that was decimated by in­ juries last season and won their final six games of the year. The second half of the slate includes league home games versus Southern Utah (Oct. 13), Idaho State (Oct. 27), and the 112th meeting of the Griz and Cats in the teams’ regular-season finale on Nov. 17. Conference road contests are at Northern Colorado (Oct. 6), North Dakota (Oct. 20), and Weber State (Nov. 3). “We’ve got a challenge, but you know any­ more, almost any conference you look at there are no more patsies on the schedule sort-ofspeak,” Delaney said. “Now we are playing all Division 1 schools, and they are all quality Divi­ sion 1 schools. Is that good or bad? Well, we’re going to know after five weeks whether we’re in the hunt.

“We’ll line up and play the games that we’re scheduled to play, and see if we can’t do what the Griz do, and that is to compete for a champion­ ship,” Delaney said.

Jordan TRIPP LINEBACKER/LONG SNAPS 6-3 % , 244, Jr. 2V/RS Missoula, Montana Big Sky High School MONTANA: Jordan will be starting for the third season in a row. He was one of Montanas leading tacklers a year ago, but was lost for the season because of an injury, and sub­ sequently received a medical hardship. He already has six career fumble recoveries, which ties him with three others for the fourth most in school history. This past spring he was chosen by former Griz defensive end Ryan Fetherston to wear UM s legacy number 37 (a tradition that started in 1987). 2011: He started in the first three games, but was forced to redshirt after suffering an injury in the Eastern Washington game, but for­ tunately did not lose a season, as he played as a true freshman in 2009.

QUOTING COACH M ICK DELANEY: ‘Jordan Tripp missed last season with a shoulder injury and has spent a tremen­ dous amount of time re-habbing, and his last checkup showed that he is stronger now than he was previously. He is capa­ ble of being as good a linebacker as there is in the country. He’s around 6-3, 240plus pounds, and lies probably the sec­ ond fastest guy on our football team. He knows the defense and what is expected of him. I just expect Jordan Tripp to be one of the premier players in our division this season "

Danny KISTLER JR.

ALL-AMERICAN CANDIDATE OFFENSIVE TAG 6-8, 315, Jr., 2V Seattle, Washingto O’Dea High Scho

MONTANA: Danny is an outstanding offensive lineman and will be starting for the second season in a row in 2012. He will start at offensive right tackle this season. He has 16 starts so far in his career. 2011: He started all 14 games at left guard and was a second team AllBig Sky Conference selection. 2010: He played in nine games and started in two (North Dakota and Montana State) at left guard as a true freshman. He was an AllBig Sky Conference academic team selection, maintaining a 3.42 grade point average. H IGH SCHOOL: He earned three letters in football and two in track and field at O’Dea High School. He was voted most improved player in football as a junior for his team that went 13-1 that lost in the state championship game. He missed most of his senior year with an injury. He was an all-league pick as a junior and senior. He was named preseason all-state choice as a senior (2008). His high school football coach was Monte Kohler. PERSONAL: He is a sociology major. His parents are Dan and Helen Kistler of Seattle. Birth date: March 30,1991. QUOTING COACH DELANEY: “Danny came to us from ODea High School out in Seattle, which is one o f the premier programs in the Seattle area. He actually was going to walk on at Ohio State, because a lot of his family is from the Columbus area. He had some NCAA Clearing House issues, so he went back to Washington and attended junior college and did not play football that first semester.

i

“Coach (Monte) Kohler called us and, said chey,we have a young man here who the (Washington) Huskies wanted to walk on, Ohio State wanted him to walk on, and hes looking for a place to go) We put his tape on, and back then Danny was probably around 375 pounds, but he just had great feet and seemed to have a real good feel for technique and mechanics.

“So he joined us that winter (2010), which was great, because we had him in the spring. He ended up playing quite a bit his first year. He started last year, and we look for him to be one o f our leaders on the offensive line, and certainly he has the capability o f doing some great things. I think that he is still at that stage in his career where he doesn't know how good he can be. He's p u t in the work to become a top notch football player. I think the sky is the limit for Danny."

Hes also going to play some H-back, which involves more receiving and blocking than we've done in the past. “I think Danny's future down the road will be number one to stay healthy. He's battled some injuries, but if he can stay healthy and do what we expect him to do on special teams, he has a chance to play at the next level, as a fullback and special teams guy. Danny has the potential of being on the field a whole lot this year, whether in's on special teams, at tailback, or at H-back. He ought to be a terror on special teams and at tailback and H-back.''

QUOTING COACH DELANEY: “Kjelby, technique-wise and with his knowledge of the game of football, might be the best of any player on our offensive line. The good thing about our offensive line is that there are no seniors on it except one (guard Jake Hendrickson). “He can go back to guard if we need him there. We could put Logan Hines at center and move Kjelby to guard and not miss a beat. That's what makes Kjelby so valuable to the offensive line. He can play both center and guard, and play both positions at a high level. He is such a strong, good, quick­ footed smart guy, that he is the player we want at center. “He understands where he's going, and he does all of the things you want him to do at center. He is smart enough to make the calls, because our center actually directs the entire offensive line on every single offensive play. I f he has a great summer, I believe our three or four offensive linemen will be as good as anybody's."

QUOTING COACH DELANEY: “Peter is one of those special guys. In the grand scheme of things at running back and at special teams, Peter is not the biggest guy, but hes as strongpound-for-pound as anyone on the team. He’s not a speed guy, but hes extremely quick and has great vision and greatfeet. “Peter cant carry the ball 35 times a game, but he can certainly carry it 20, and when he does his statistics will probably be at around four-and-a-half to five yards per carry - and that’s what is important. He is such an asset because he never loses yardage. He’s an amazing change of direction guy. There’s one par­ ticular play that comes to mind, which was the Montana State game last year. It was just a quick little inside zone type of thing, and Peter probably made six guys miss (he had a 21-yard TD run on the play). He does a dynamic job on special teams for us, and I lookforward to him being the best punt returner in the conference this year.”

KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE - The Grizzlies struggled to get the offense on track after a 99-minute lightning and rain delay, and the Tennessee Volunteers used the momen­ tum to cruise to a 42-16 victory. The game was scheduled to start a 6:07 p.m. EST but a severe thunder storm moved kickoff back to 7:40 p.m. EST. The storm was so severe that fans were asked to leave their seats and get out of the weather. The Grizzly defense stifled the Volunteer offense on their first possession and forced a three-and-out. But, on the ensuing punt Peter Nguyen failed to field the ball and UT recovered the punt on the Montana 47 yard line. UT sophomore quarterback Tyler Bray hit sophomore receiver Da’Rick Rogers for a 47-yard touchdown on the first play after the fumble. On the ensuing Tennessee drive Bray connected on an 81-yard touchdown, this time with sophomore receiver Jus­ tin Hunter. On their next drive the Vols went 96 yards and scored on another Bray pass, this time to tailback Marlin Lane. Af­ ter another short Grizzly drive led to a punt, UT once again made a long drive for a TD, as tailback Tauren Poole scored on an 8-yard run. The Grizzly offense finally got on the board when John­ son found senior receiver Jabin Sambrano open, and after evading a defender Sambrano outran the defense for an 81-yard touchdown bringing the score to 28-7. The Vols led 28-7 at halftime. In the first possession of the second half the Grizzlies ap­ peared to be on the move but after two first-downs the drive once again stalled. Sean Wrens ensuing punt was downed on the one yard line, and on the Vols first offensive play of the second half Poole was tackled by senior defensive tackle Ben Hughes in the end zone for a safety, making the score 28-9 UT. The Grizzlies appeared to be gaining some momentum, but after a quick first down Johnsons throw was intercepted by senior defensive back Art Evans who returned the pick for a 37-yard touchdown. The interception extended the Tennessee lead to 35-9. The fourth quarter saw the Vols and Griz trading touch­ downs. Tennessee scored first on 1-yard run by Lane to push the UT lead to 42-9. The Grizzlies answered with a 7-yard touchdown by redshirt freshman running back Jordan Can­ ada to cap the scoring at 42-16. The Montana defense struggled to keep UT out of the end zone and failed to capitalize on any of the Vols six fum­ bles, all of which were recovered by Tennessee. The Griz played tough against the run and held the Tennessee backs to just 2.8 yards-per-carry. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy led the Grizzly de­ fense with 13 tackles and a sack, while Hughes was close be­ hind with 10 stops, and he also forced two fumbles, had two tackles for loss, and a sack. Hughes was named the Big Sky’s “Player of the Week” on defense in his first carerr start. Griz senior cornerback Trumaine Johnson added 7 tackles and a forced fumble and a PD, and senior end Ryan Fetherston also had 7 stops along with 1.5 sacks. Johnson ended the game with a touchdown and 226 yards on 19-of-36 passing with the one interception. Antwon Moutra led UM with 4 catches for 30 yards, while Gerald Kemp and Sam Gratton had three receptions each. Nguyen rushed nine times for a team-high 67 yards, while Canada had eight totes for 25 yards and Montana’s only rushing touchdown.

MISSOULA, MONTANA — The University of Montana Grizzlies dominated the second half and went on to register a hard-fought 37-23 victory over the Cal Poly Mustangs in UM s Washington-Grizzly Stadium. There were 25,855 fans on hand for UM’s 2011 home open­ er - the third largest crowd ever in Washington-Grizzly Sta­ dium in the 185 games played there since 1986. The Grizzlies (1-1) out-scored the Mustangs (0-2) 23-6 in the second half, holding them to just two field goals.

After his TD pass Johnson rushed for the two-point conversion. Montana got an insurance touchdown with 8:30 remain­ ing on a 1-yard run by junior running back Dan Moore. The Griz then scored another two-point conversion, this time on Johnson-to-Middleton pass. Jabin Sambrano got the crowd on its feet early, as he broke away on the opening kickoff for a 96-yard touchdown. It was the fifth longest kickoff return in school history. Cal Poly of the Great West Football Conference came right back though, as senior fullback Jake Romanelli scored on a 4-yard run, making it 7-7 with 9:02 to go in the first quarter. Sophomore kicker James Langford’s 38-yard field goal gave the Mustangs a 10-7 edge with 2:54 left in the opening stanza. Moore got the lead back for the Griz on his first touch­ down run, this one from four yards out, giving his team a 14-10 lead with 9:51 to go until intermission.

Cal Poly took its largest led (20-14) of the game at the 10:19 mark of the third stanza on a 36-yard field goal by Langford. The Griz went ahead again in less than two minutes, as Sam­ brano scored again, this time on a 58-yard pass from Johnson. Senior kicker Brody McKnight’s PAT gave the Griz a 21-20 lead. The Mustangs took their fourth and final lead (23-21) with 4:21 left in the third quarter on a 50-yard field goal by Lang­ ford. Johnson was 25-of-39-0 for 240 yards and two touchdowns.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - A record crowd was on hand as The University of Montana Grizzlies started their 2011 Big Sky Confer­ ence season with a hard-fought 17-14 victory over defending FCS national champion Eastern Washington in UM’s Washington-Grizzly Stadium. There were 26,066 in Washington1Grizzly Stadium, breaking the old record of 26,019 set in the Montana State game last season. It was a defensive slugfest, as there were just 15 points scored in the second half. The Grizzlies got all of the points that they needed with 6:14 left in the third quarter, when Gerald Kemp lined up at a wide receiver posi­ tion and scored on a 1-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson. Kemp’s touchdown catch gave Montana (2-1/1-0) a 17-6 lead over the Eagles (0-3/0-1), which proved to be all the points they needed. It wasn’t an easy win, though. EWU cut the UM lead to 17-14 with 10:32 left in the contest when senior quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell connected with junior wide receiv­ er Nicholas Edwards for a 4-yard TD. Those two hooked up again for the two-point conversion and the Eagles were back in the hunt. But, the Grizzly defense withstood three more possessions by the Eagles, and ended the comeback with an interception by sophomore linebacker John Kanonagata’a on EWU’s 17-yard line with 25 seconds left. The Griz scored on their first possession on a 1-yard scoring run by junior halfback Dan Moore. The TD was set up thanks to a 44-yard run by Johnson, who advanced the ball to EWU’s four-yard line, and Moore scored two plays later. Montana took a 10-0 lead with 3:29 remaining in the first quarter on a 35-yard field goal by senior kicker Brody McKnight. EWU had 212 total yards and dominated time of possession (21:36 to 8:24) in the first 30 minutes, but was held to two field goals by senior kicker Mike Jarrett, who connected from 41 and 42 yards out, making it 10-6 Griz at halftime. The final touchdown by Kemp, who is also the Grizzlies’ back-up quarterback, gave his team an 11-point cushion, and UM’s defense did the rest, holding EWU to just eight second-half points. The Griz rushed 46 times for 316 yards, led by Johnson’s 102 yards on just 10 carries. Redshirt freshman Jordan Canada gained 76 yards, while junior Peter Nguyen added 59, and Kemp had just one attempt but picked up 50 yards. Kemp’s burst led to McKnight’s first quarter field goal. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy led the Griz with 12 tackles, along with Kanongataa, who also had 12 stops. Kanongata’a, who also had a sack to go along with his pick, was filling in for junior linebacker Jordan Tripp, who left the game with an injury. Waldhauser added eight stops, including 1.5 sacks, while senior cornerback Houston Roots had seven stops and a TFL. Mitchell was 26-of-49-2 for 237 yards and a TD. Freshman halfback Jordan Talley had game-highs of 19 carries for 114 yards. Senior line­ backer Zack Johnson led EWU with a game-high 13 tackles.

2011 BSC CHAMPIONS

SACRAMENTO, CALIF. - Senior quarterback Jeff Fleming ran for two touchdowns and passed for two two more to lead the Hornets to the win over the 10thranked Griz. The win was the first for the Hornets over the Grizzlies in 17 tries. Sac State never trailed in the game and controlled the clock with a balanced attack. The Hornets ran for 254 yards and threw for 224 yards, and held the ball for more than twice as long (40:43 to 19:17) as the Grizzlies. Another big factor in the game was turnovers. The Grizzlies turned the ball over five times including a muffed punt and a blocked punt which both lead to Hornet touch­ downs. Sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson struggled to find his groove and threw three interceptions. Sac State (2-2/1-1) never trailed, and started the scor­ ing off with a 13-play, 82-yard drive that took 7:20 on their first possession, capping it off with a 9-yard pass by Flem­ ing to senior receiver Chase Deadder for a 7-0 Hornet lead. The Grizzlies (2-2/101) traded short possessions with the Hornets before tying the game at 7-7 on a one yard run by junior running back Dan Moore after a 73-yard drive. The Grizzlies then forced Sac State to punt, but the short kick deflected off of a Grizzly player, and the Hornets recovered the ball on the Montana 14-yard line, and five plays later Fleming ran for a 7-yard score to give Sac a 14-7 lead. The Grizzlies responded quickly with a 75-yard drive that culminated in a 33-yard touchdown pass from John­ son to junior receiver Bryce Carver to even the score at 14-14. Sac State punched back, though, this time scoring on another Fleming run from nine yards out to again take the lead (21-14) for good, and led by that score at halftime. Both teams traded possessions, but the Hornets ended the half with a missed 25-yard field goal as time expired. Things started snowballing for the Grizzlies on the first possession after halffime. After one first down the drive stalled on the UM 40-yard line and the ensuing punt by senior Sean Wren was blocked by Deadder. The ball was picked up by sophomore defensive back Markell Williams and returned 30 yards for a TD, giving the Hornets a 28-14 lead. After a first down by the Griz, a promising possession was stalled by penalties, and Montana was forced to punt. Sac State took full advantage of their next possession and drove 69 yards in just three plays to take a commanding 35-14 lead. Johnson scored on a 4-yard run on the Grizzlies next possession to close the gap to 35-21, but the Hornets put an end to the Grizzlies’ comeback hopes with a 14-play, 80-yard drive that ate up nearly nine minutes (8:50) and culminated in a 37-yard touchdown pass from Fleming to senior receiver Brandyn Reed. The Griz scored once more with 28 seconds left on an­ other Moore 1-yard touchdown run. For the second week Johnson led the team in rushing with 64 yards on seven carries and a touchdown, Moore gained 43 yards on 15 carries and scored two TDs. Senior running back Bryan Hilliard had 22 carries for 100 yards. Junior running back Sam McCowan came in for Hilliard in the second half while he was receiving medical attention for his ankle and ran for 71 yards and a touchdown. Fleming ran for 62 yards on nine carries and two touchdowns. Fleming was 18-of-27 for 224 yards with no intercep­ tions, while Johnson was 9-of-19 for 148 yards with 3 picks.

MISSOULA, MONTANA — The University of Montana Grizzlies turned on the after-burners in the third quarter and went on to register a 55-28 Big Sky Conference and Homecoming victory over the visiting University of Northern Colorado Bears. It was Montana’s 19th Homecoming win in a row, dating back to 1993. Leading 24-12 at halftime, the Grizzlies (3-2/2-1) scored 28 unan­ swered points in the third stanza to take a commanding 55-14 lead over the Bears (0-5/0-3). Junior quarterback Gerald Kemp was instrumental in Montana’s third quarter surge. He rushed for a 7-yard touchdown to open the scor­ ing in the third period. He then threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to junior halfback Peter Nguyen, and then followed that up with another 7-yard scoring run, and the Griz led 48-14 with 4:42 remaining in the quarter. Redshirt freshman halfback Brett Kirschner scored the final points of the game for the Griz on a 1-yard run with 2:21 to go in the third quarterhis first career touchdown. It was a game of a lot of firsts by Griz players. Kemp had his first ca­ reer rushing and passing touchdowns. Last season he mostly played run­ ning back out of the wildcat formation. It was also the first touchdown reception by Nguyen. It was also the first start for junior quarterback Nate Montana, who threw a 39-yard scoring pass to senior wide receiver Antwon Moutra on a flea-flicker on the Grizzlies’ first play from scrimmage. The Bears answered UM’s opening score, though, as sophomore quar­ terback Seth Lobato connected with senior receiver Patrick Walker on a 7-yard TD pass with 5:55 left in the opening quarter. Montana took the lead for good a couple of minutes later when senior kicker Brody McKnight nailed a 47-yard field goal, which gave the Griz a 10-7 first quarter lead. The teams traded touchdowns after that via big plays on special teams. The Griz took a 17-7 lead when Jabin Sambrano broke free and scored on a 43-yard punt return (his first punt return TD). But seconds later UNC’s Dominic Gunn returned the ensuing kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown, which cut the UM lead to 17-14 with 9:36 left until intermission. The Griz tacked on 10 more points prior to the half, as Kemp hit se­ nior wide-out Antwon Moutra for a 32-yard scoring pass, and McKnight kicked a 27-yard field goal as time expired to give the Griz a 27-14 halftime lead. The Bears’ final two scores in the fourth quarter were due to a pair of Griz fumbles. The first was a 6-yard fumble recovery for a TD by senior safety Chuks Nweke. The second was on a 4-yard pass from Lobato to junior receiver Chris Morris with one second left in the contest. That second TD was set up when sophomore linebacker Clarence Bumpas scooped up a fumble and return it to the UM 16-yard line. Four plays later Lobato and Morris hooked up for the score. Kemp rushed 11 times for a career-high 79 yards and two scores, and completed 7-of-8 passes for 112 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Junior halfback Dan Moore had eight carries for 43 yards, while redshirt fresh­ man Jordan Canada added 41 yards on eight totes. Montana completed 7-of-10 passes for 138 yards and a TD. Moutra had 71 receiving yards, and both of his catches resulted in touchdowns. The Griz defense was stellar against the run, giving up 21 net yards on 24 carries, and sacked Lobato five times. UM senior linebackers Caleb McSurdy and Alex Shaw led the way with 8 and 7 tackles, respectively. Shaw also had two tackles for loss and a sack. The “D” racked up 12 tack­ les for loss. Nguyen (164) and Sambrano (144) combined for 308 all-purpose yards. Sobato was 30-of-46-l for 252 yards and two TDs. Walker had 9 catches for 94 yards and a touchdown, while Morris had 7 grabs for 32 yards and a score. Bumpas had a game-high 14 tackles. Gunn had 215 all-purpose yards. The Griz had 194 net yards rushing and 250 passing for 444 yards of total offense, while the Bears had 21 yards rushing and 254 passing for 275 total yards.

POCATELLO, IDAHO - The Griz had their most dominant de­ fensive performance of the season in the win. The Montana defense held ISU to just 121 yards of total offense and five first downs. The Bengal offense only progressed into Griz­ zly territory on their last possession of the first half. That possession ended with an interception, one of the seven turnovers on the eve­ ning for the Bengals. Montana started the dominance early when sophomore safety Bo Tully intercepted ISU junior quarterback Kevin Yost on the Ben­ gals’ first play from scrimmage. The Grizzlies turned the intercep­ tion into a 44-yard field goal by senior Brody McKnight and a 3-0 lead with 13:31 remaining in the opening frame. Special teams have had a negative impact on Montana in the Griz-Bengals games the last two seasons, but the story was different Saturday night, as ISU had three of their seven turnovers on special teams including the Grizzlies’ ensuing kickoff after a McKnight field goal. Montana scored its first touchdown when sophomore quarter­ back Jordan Johnson found junior wide receiver Sam Gratton in the end zone for the 10-0 lead with 6:58 remaining in the first quarter. The score held into the second quarter when a 23-yard pass from Johnson to junior Gerald Kemp set up another McKnight field goal, this one a 51-yarder. The Grizzlies held ISU to just two first downs and 76 yards in the first half, over half of that coming on one pass play, a 43-yard com­ pletion from Yost to junior wide receiver Rodrick Rumble. Three plays later senior safety Mike McCord intercepted Yost’s pass and returned it 28 yards. The Grizzlies lead 13-0 at halftime. The Montana offense started the first half with a 74-yard drive, capped with a 28-yard touchdown run by senior receiver Jabin Sam­ brano on a reverse with 11:08 remaining in the third quarter to give UM the 20-0 lead. The Grizzly “D” forced the Bengals to punt on their first posses­ sion of the second half and their second drive led to another McK­ night field goal, and Montana pushed the lead to 23-0 with 6:26 left in the third quarter. Montana would score 10 more points in the fourth frame on another McKnight field goal with 8:42 remaining and a touchdown by freshman tailback Jordan Canada with 5:20 left in the game. Coming into the game Yost was second in the nation in total offense with 343.6 yards per game. Rumble led the nation in recep­ tions and receiving yards per game with 11 and 151.4 respectively. Yost passed for only 147 yards and was 21-of-46 with three in­ terceptions, he was also sacked four times and had -22 yards rush­ ing. Rumble had six receptions for 73 yards, 43 of which came on the catch late in the first half. The Bengals ran only nine times the entire game with -26 rush yards, as Yost was sacked four times. Montana gained 211 yards rushing on 55 attempts, led by junior running back Dan Moore who had 21 carries for 62 yards. Johnson was 18-of-31-l for 267 yards and one touchdown. Kemp had career-highs of 8 catches for 82 yards. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy had a team-high six tackles for the Griz, along with two stops for loss and a sack.

MISSOULA, MONTANA —The Grizzlies played an outstanding second half and were led by the “D” and running back Jordan Canada, and registered a 30-24 come-from-behind victory over the visiting Vikings in a key Big Sky Conference game in UM’s Washington-Grizzly Stadium (attendance, 25,744 - the eighth largest in WGS history). The 14th-ranked Grizzlies (5-2/4-1 Big Sky) had to overcome a 21-10 halftime deficit to defeat the Vikings (3-3/2-2). In the final half Montana’s defense gave up just 109 total yards, six first downs, and allowed PSU’s vaunted rushing attack just 38 yards. The Griz­ zlies out-scored the Vikings, who entered the game ranked third in the na­ tion in rushing (292.8 yards a game), 20-3 in the second half. Canada, a redshirt freshman from Duarte, Calif., rushed 13 times for 160 yards in the second half. He had one carry for minus-one yards in the first 30 minutes. In the second half, the Grizzly offense racked up 254 yards of total of­ fense, along with 11 first downs. Canada started the Montana comeback when he scored on a 5-yard touchdown run with 3:51 remaining in the third quarter. That cut the PSU lead to 21-16. The key play in that drive was a 22-yard pass from quarter­ back Jordan Johnson to senior wide receiver Jabin Sambrano, which ad­ vanced the ball to the PSU two-yard line. The Vikings widened their lead to 24-16 when junior kicker Zach Brown connected on his third field of the game, this one a 31-yarder with 3:45 left in the third stanza. But, the Grizzlies came right back and tied the contest up for the first time, 24-24, on a 1-yard run by junior halfback Dan Moore, plus a twopoint conversion on a Johnson to Kavario Middleton pass. Those gametying points came with 1:37 to go in the third quarter. Canada was the main man in the Grizzlies’ game-tying drive, as he broke loose for a 75-yard run, moving the ball from the UM 7-yard line to the PSU two. Three plays later Moore scored his TD. Montana took the lead (its first) for good with 10:06 left in the game on a 24-yard field goal by senior kicker Brody McKnight. McKnight added three more points on his third field goal of the game - this one from 42 yards out, giving the Griz a 30-24 lead with 1:49 remaining. PSU jumped to an early 6-0 first-quarter lead on back-to-back field goals by Brown, who nailed one from 53 yards out, and then hit a 28-yarder. The Vikings went ahead 13-0 with 13:10 to go in the second quarter on an 8-yard run by senior quarterback Connor Kavanaugh. The Griz an­ swered the PSU score with a 6-yard touchdown rush by sophomore quar­ terback Jordan Johnson, cutting the Vikings lead to 13-7 with 7:39 left until intermission. PSU came right back, though, this time on a 3-yard TD run by senior halfback Cory McCaffrey with 1:32 to go until the half, giving the Vikings a 21-7 lead. McKnight scored the final points of the first half on a 27-yard field goal with 12 seconds left until the break. It was 21-10, PSU, at halftime. Canada led the way, averaging 11.4 yards on his 14 carries, and a couple of key first downs in UM’s final possession. Junior halfback Peter Nguyen added 10 carries for 68 yards. Unfortunately, Moore, who was limited to eight yards on 10 carries, was injured late in the game. Johnson was 10-of-18-0 for 128 yards. Sambrano, who also left the game with an injury, had two catches for a team-high 73 yards. Juniors Sam Gratton and Gerald Kemp had two receptions each, and Kemp also had to leave the game due to an injury. Junior end Josh Harris had a career-high 9 tackles, along with 2.5 tackles for a loss and a sack to pace Montana’s defense. Linebackers John Kanongata’a and Caleb McSurdy added 9 and 8 tackles, respectively. Senior cornerback Houston Roots had two interceptions - the first of his career. McKnight’s three field goals give him 48 in his career, tying him with Kirk Duce (48,1988-91) for the third most in school history. McCaffrey, who also unfortunately suffered an injury late in the game, rushed 25 times for 103 yards, while Kavanaugh had 23 totes for 97 yards. Passing-wise Kavanaugh was 10-of-20-2 for 100 yards. PSU senior line­ backer Ryan Rau had a game-high 18 tackles.

The victory was Montana’s sixth of the season —which guarantees the Griz­ zlies their 26th straight winning season, a streak which started in 1986. Montana (6-2, 5-1) allowed NAU (2-5,1-4) to jump out to a 14-0 lead just 4:26 into the game. The Lumberjacks scored on a 77-yard pass play from Grossat to receiver Khalil Paden on the first play from scrimmage. NAU’s second touchdown, a 37-yard run by running back Zach Bauman, gave the Jacks a 14-0 lead with 10:32 left in the opening quarter. The Grizzlies didn’t score until the 7:17 mark in the second quarter when running back Peter Nguyen caught a screen pass and followed his blockers into the endzone for a 20-yard touchdown. Montana scored again with just 37 seconds left in the first half on a 1-yard run by running back Jordan Canada, knotting the game up at 14-14. The Grizzlies took their first lead (21-14) with 2:57 left in the third frame when receiver Jabin Sambrano scored on an 80-yard reverse. The Grizzly defense stiffened after the big offensive start by the Lumber­ jacks and held NAU scoreless until 12:40 left in the fourth quarter when Paden got his second touchdown reception of the night on a 51-yard pass from Gros­ sart. NAU took the lead back on their next possession when kicker Matt Myers hit from 40 yards out to give the Jacks a 24-21 advantage with 4:45 left in the game. Nguyen returned the ensuing kickoff 49 yards to the NAU 46-yard line, and Canada scored his game-winner on UM’s first play from scrimmage after Nguyen’s big return, giving the Grizzlies a 28-24 lead with 4:26 to play. The Jacks had one more opportunity to score and they moved the ball to the UM 44-yard line, but their final drive ended with Waldhauser’s sack. Griz fans had a scare when quarterback Jordan Johnson went down in the third quarter with an injury, and although the injury looked like it might be se­ rious, Johnson went into the locker room for the rest of that series but returned for the next one. Johnson finished the game with 216 yards passing, going 15-of-25-0, with one touchdown and no interceptions. Sam Gratton led UM’s receivers with 3 receptions for 93 yards. Sambrano’s 80-yard TD run tied him with five other players for the longest scoring run in school history. Canada led the Grizzlies with 98 yards rushing on 17 carries and two TDs. Waldhauser had a team-high 10 tackles, which ties his career-high, along with two sacks and three stops for losses. Grossart was 12-of-27 for 321 yards and two touchdowns and no intercep­ tions but was sacked six times. Bauman led NAU with 148 yards and a TD.

MISSOULA, MONTANA- Montana sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson tied a school record with six touchdown passes and senior wide receiver Jabin Sambrano tied a school mark with four scoring grabs, as the 11th-ranked Grizzlies rolled to a key Big Sky Conference victory. The convincing win improved the Grizzlies record to 7-2 over­ all and 6-1 in Big Sky play, while the Wildcats are now 3-513-2. The Washington -Grizzly crowd of 25,401 was the 16th largest in 189 games played there. It was an excellent all-around offensive and defensive effort by the Grizzlies, who have had to come from behind in a pair of recent wins over Northern Arizona (28-24) and Portland State (30-24). Montana has now won five games in a row. Montana rolled to 545 yards of total offense and 29 first downs, and held Weber State to 290 yards and 19 first downs (six of them coming on the Wildcats’ last drive). The Wildcats had an impressive opening drive and went 73 yards on 11 plays en route to a 34-yard field goal by sophomore kicker Shaun McClain, taking a 3-0 lead with 9:13 to go in the first quarter. The Griz went three-and-out on their first series, but then scored on their next two possessions, and took a 14-3 first-quarter lead when true freshman Josh Dennard scored his first career touchdown on an 18-yard pass from Johnson. Dennard’s scoring grab was set up on three consecutive completions to Sambrano covering 33 yards and moved the ball to the WSU 18-yard line. Montana took a 7-3 lead with 7:34 left in the opening period on a 31-yard screen pass from Johnson to junior halfback Peter Nguyen, and the Griz led the rest of the way. The Grizzlies dominated the second quarter, out-gaining the Wild­ cats 252 to 35 in total yards, and jumped to a 38-3 halftime lead. UM had 13 more first downs (15 to 2) than WSU in the second quarter. It was the Johnson to Sambrano combination that put the game away early for the Grizzlies, as they hooked up for three straight touch­ downs, covering 11, 17, and 8 yards, the third one giving them a com­ manding 35-3 lead with 3:36 to go until intermission. Montana’s final score in the first half was a 41-yard field goal by senior kicker Brody McKnight. That was McKnight’s 49th career field goal, moving him to third all-time, and breaking a tie with Kirk Duce (48, 1989-91). Montana went to its running game in the second half and picked up 196 yards on 22 carries, and was 6-of-8 passing for 60 yards in the final 30 minutes. The Grizzlies tacked on one more score with the fourth Johnson-to-Sambrano touchdown pass, this one good from 25 yards out, giving UM a 45-3 advantage with 11:28 left in the third quarter. WSU scored its only touchdown of the game with 42 seconds re­ maining on a 3-yard run by junior halfback C.J. Tuckett. Johnson completed 23-of-32-0 passes for a career-high 299 yards en route to his record-tying six touchdown passes. He tied Brian Ah Yat (6 TD passes at Stephen F. Austin, 1998) and Dave Dickenson’s (6 TDs throws versus Boise State, 1995) with his six scoring throws. He also rushed eight times for 53 yards to finish with 352 yards of total of­ fense. Sambrano’s four scoring grabs tied him with four other players: Marc Mariani versus Southern Utah, 2008; Joe Douglass at Eastern Washington in 1996; Marvin Turk at Idaho in 1991; and Mike Rice against Idaho State in 1986. Nguyen had career and game-highs of 15 carries for 85 yards. Sambrano finished with 7 receptions for 94 yards and the four TDs, while junior tight end Greg Hardy had 5 grabs for 36 yards. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy led the defense with 10 tackles. Senior cornerback Houston Roots had 5 tackles, an interception, a tackle for a loss, and a pass break-up. WSU was without injured starting quarterback Mike Hoke. His re­ placement, sophomore Jordan Adamczyk was 18-of-40-2 for 196 yards and was sacked just once, but was forced out of the pocket throughout the game.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - Kicker Brody McKnight connected on a school-record six field goals and halfback Peter Nguyen rushed for a career-high 149 yards to lead The University of Montana Grizzlies to a 32-7 victory over the Western Oregon College Wolves in a non-league game in UM’s Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The Griz (8-2 overall) dominated the Wolves (6-4), and scored all seven times they were in the red zone, but six of those scores came via McKnight’s foot in the form of field goals. The Division II Wolves, who lead the Great Northwest Athletic Conference with a 6-1 record, made things interest­ ing when they scored their only touchdown of the game in the third quarter. When senior quarterback Cory Bean hit sophomore flanker Lucas Gonsalves for a 27-yard TD, it cut the Griz lead to 15-7 with 9:24 left in the third stanza. The Grizzlies answered the Wolves’ touchdown with one of their own, though, as redshirt freshman halfback Brett Kirschner scored on a 1-yard run, giving Montana a 22-7 lead at the 6:37 mark of the third quarter. Nguyen was instrumental in Kirschner’s touchdown run in UM’s nine-play, 54-yard drive, as the 5-8,182-pound junior rushed five times for 33 yards, including a key four-and-one carry that advanced the ball to the Wolves 1-yard line. Nguy­ en was banged up on that run to the 1-yard line and did not return to the game. Montana tacked on another score when junior quarter­ back Nate Montana tossed a 5-yard scoring pass to senior wide receiver Antwon Moutra, making the score 29-7 Griz with 13:12 left in the game. The Grizzlies final points came on McKnight’s sixth re­ cord-breaking field goal, this one coming from 24 yards out with 8:30 remaining in the contest, making it 32-7. The Griz had 53 plays and racked up 282 yards in the first half, but managed only 12 points, as McKnight booted field goals covering 24, 21, 51, and 30 yards. Montana played four quarterbacks, and starter Jordan Johnson was ll-of-16-0 for 103 yards, but left the game after just one quarter of action due to an injury. McKnight’s four first-half field goals were set up by the running of Nguyen, who gained 84 yards on 13 carries and the passing of Johnson (103 yards) and junior QB Gerald Kemp, who threw for 64 yards and rushed for 24 more in the first 30 minutes of the game. Sam Gratton also contributed a lot in the first half with 6 catches for 72 yards. The Griz defense was once again stellar, holding the Wolves to 221 total yards and 13 first downs. Sophomore linebacker John Kanogata’a led UM with 8 stops, while true freshman safety Matt Hermanson had 7 tackles and an inter­ ception. Senior tackle Bryan Waldhauser added 7 stops and 1.5 tackles for loss. Sophomore cornerback Sean Murray had two interceptions. Bean and fellow quarterbacks Cody VonAppen and Ryan Bergman were a combined 10-of-31-4 for 156 yards and one TD. WOU had 31 rushes for 65 net yards. Sophomore linebacker Devin Wells led the Wolves with a game-high 18 tackles.

BOZEMAN, MONTANA —The University of Montana had two play­ ers rush for more than 100 yards and the Grizzly defense stymied Montana State’s potent offense en route to a 36-10 key Big Sky Conference victory at MSU’s Bobcat Stadium. The seventh-ranked Grizzlies claimed the league’s regular-season championship over the top-ranked Bobcats due to the head-to-head tie­ breaker in the league’s standings. It was the 70th Griz victory in the 111th game of the storied rivalry. Montana has now won 22 of the past 26 games and leads the series 70-36-5. With the regular-season title Montana earned the automatic berth into the FCS playoffs. This will be the 18th season in the last 19 years that the Griz has advanced to the playoffs. The Grizzly defense set the tone for the game. Montana’s “D” held MSU’s prolific offense, which had averaged 459 yards and 36.6 points a game before last Saturday, to just 250 yards and 10 points. The Griz rushed 47 times for 309 yards and two scores, and passed for another 165 yards and a pair of touchdowns, racking up 473 total yards and 24 first downs (18 rushing). Griz junior running backs Peter Nguyen and Dan Moore rushed for 123 and 116 yards, respectively. The Cats cut the Griz lead to 12-7 when sophomore quarterback Denarius McGhee connected with senior wide receiver Elvis Akpla on a 7-yard scoring pass with 14:07 to go in the third quarter. The Grizzlies came right back on their first play from scrimmage in the second half, though, as senior wide receiver Jabin Sambrano hauled in a 79-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson, making the score 19-7 Griz with 13:49 left in the third quarter. After Sambrano’s long TD grab, the Grizzlies tacked on three more points on a 33-yard field goal by senior kicker Brody McKnight, taking a 22-7 lead with 10:05 left in the third. Moore, who had not played in more than a month due to an injury he suffered in the Portland State game (Oct. 15), rushed 15 times for a careerhigh 116 yards. His longest run of the game was a 37-yard touchdown scamper, which gave the Griz a 29-7 lead with 5:37 left in the third. MSU’s final points came on a 38-yard field goal by senior kicker Jason Cunningham with 14:16 remaining in the game. Nguyen capped off his second straight 100-yard rushing game with a nifty, zig-zagging 21-yard touchdown run with 9:28 left in the game, mak­ ing it the final, 36-10. Two weeks ago, in UM’s last game, Nguyen rushed for a career-high 149 yards in a 32-7 home win over Western Oregon. The game started out slow, with the teams battling between the 25-yard lines for the majority of the first quarter, with neither scoring. The Grizzlies got on the scoreboard at the 9:10 mark in the second quarter when McKnight nailed a 34-yard field goal to give the Griz a 3-0 lead. MSU stopped the Griz on their next drive, but McKnight’s 49-yard punt gave MSU poor field position at their own 3-yard line. On MSU’s first possession from the three, McGhee was called for intentional grounding in the end zone for a safety when he was tackled by senior cornerback Tru­ maine Johnson with 6:12 to play in the half, and the Griz took a 5-0 lead. Montana pushed the lead to 12-0 on a 2-yard pass from Johnson to senior tight end Kavario Middleton for a touchdown on a 4th-and-2 play with 3:57 left in the half. MSU had Cunningham’s 58-yard field goal at­ tempt blocked by senior defensive end Bobby Alt with four seconds left until intermission, and UM took a 12-0 lead at the break. Johnson was 15-of-31-0 for 164 yards and two touchdowns. Sambrano had 4 catches for 96 yards and a TD, while Middleton had 3 for 15 and a score. Junior tight end Greg Hardy and junior wide-out Bryce Carver had two receptions each. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy and sophomore LB John Kanongata’a led Montana with 8 tackles each. UM senior linebacker Alex Shaw added 6 tackles and 1.5 stops for loss. Trumaine Johnson had 5 tackles, including the key one in the end zone that led to the safety. McGhee was 16-of-33-0 for 171 yards and a TD. Akpla had 6 grabs for 113 yards and a score. Junior linebacker Jody Owens led MSU with 13 tackles.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - The University of Montana Griz­ zlies dominated in all phases of the game en route to a 41-14 victo­ ry over the University of Central Arkansas Bears in a 2011 NCAA Division 1 Football Championship Subdivision second round playoff game in UM’s Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The fifth-ranked Grizzlies (10-2) will host the second-ranked Northern Iowa Panthers (10-2) in a quarterfinal playoff game on Friday, Dec. 9. UNI defeated visiting Wofford 28-21 in a secondround contest. Senior wide receiver Jabin Sambrano caught two touchdown passes from sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson; redshirt freshman Jordan Canada rushed for two scores, and junior half­ back Peter Nguyen also ran for a TD to pace Montana’s offense. The Grizzlies jumped to a 17-0 first quarter lead on a 31-yard field goal by senior kicker Brody McKnight, an 8-yard Johnsonto-Sambrano hook-up, and a 2-yard run by Nguyen. Three UCA turnovers led to all three of those opening quarter scores by UM. McKnight’s field goal was set up by a fumble recovery by Griz sophomore cornerback Sean Murray. The TD pass to Sambrano followed a fumble recovery by freshman safety Matt Hermanson, while Nguyen’s touchdown rush came after an interception by se­ nior cornerback Trumaine Johnson. Montana scored twice more before the break, as Canada broke loose on an 11-yard run, and Johnson hit Sambrano for a 22-yard TD pass with 26 seconds remaining in the second quarter, and the Griz took a commanding 31-0 lead at halftime. Canada’s second scoring run came with 9:30 to go in the third quarter, boosting Montana’s lead to 38-0. UCA got on the board with 4:54 to go in the third on a 44-yard touchdown pass from se­ nior quarterback Nathan Dick to junior wide receiver Jesse Grandy. Montana’s final points came on a 20-yard field goal by McK­ night with 12:08 left to play. McKnight upped his school record streak of consecutive field goals to 16. He also averaged 49.2 yards on four punts. The 15th-ranked Bears’ (9-4) final score came on an 8-yard touchdown pass from Dick to freshman wide receiver Al Lasker, making it the final, 41-14, with 1:58 left to play. Offensively the Grizzlies rushed 58 times for 229 yards and three touchdowns, and they passed for 135 yards and two scores, and had 27 first downs. Montana also had a huge edge in time of possession: 38:43 to 21:17. Nguyen had game-highs of 16 carries for 79 yards, while Can­ ada had 10 carries for 58 yards. UM junior halfback Dan Moore picked up 33 yards on 9 totes, and junior Gerald Kemp added 31 yards on seven rushes. Jordan Johnson was 16-of-25-2 for 135 yards and two TDs. UM senior receiver Antwon Moutra had game-highs of 6 catches for 66 yards, while senior tight end Kavario Middleton had 4 for 65, and Sambrano added 4 grabs for 39 and the two scores. The Griz “D” held UCA to 290 total yards, 13 first downs, and the Bears were 2-of-10 on third down conversions. The Bears rushed 14 times for 25 net yards. Montana recovered three of UCA’s five fumbles, and had one pick. Sophomore linebacker John Kanongata’a led the Griz with 9 tackles. Hermanson, a true freshman, had 6 tackles, two forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, and a tackle for loss. Trumaine John­ son’s pick was his first this season, but the 14th of his career, rank­ ing him fourth on the career list. UM’s other top tacklers were sophomore safety Bo Tully (5 to­ tal tackles), senior cornerback Houston Roots (5 TT), and Murray also had 5 stops and recovered a fumble. Dick was 26-of-40-l for 265 yards and two touchdowns. Lask­ er had 4 catches for 29 yards, and 11 different UCA players had at least one reception. Senior middle linebacker Frank Newsome led the Bears with a game-high 16 tackles.

MISSOULA, MONTANA —The fifth-ranked/fourth-seed University of Montana Grizzlies defeated the visiting second-ranked/fifth-seed Uni­ versity of Northern Iowa Panthers in a NCAA 2011 Division I Football Championship Subdivision quarterfinal game in a dominating fashion, 48-10 Friday (Dec. 9) evening in front of a national television audience on ESPN. The Grizzlies (11-2) improve to 11-0 at home in FCS quarterfinale games, and advance to the semifinals for the 11th time in school history. It was also the ninth win in a row today for Montana. A raucous Washington-Grizzly Stadium crowd of 23,049, saw UNI finish its season with a 10-3 record. Just as in last week’s 41-14 second round victory over the visiting Central Arkansas Bears, the Grizzlies dominated in every phase of the game. In that win over UCA the Griz rushed 58 times for 229 yards, while the “D” held the Bears to 290 total yards, including just 25 rushing. Against UNI, Montana rushed 49 times for 267 yards and passed for another 196 en route to 463 total yards and 20 first downs. The Griz were 5-of-5 scoring in the red zone and converted 7-of-13 first downs. UNI had 257 total yards and 11 first downs, and the Griz defense sacked Panther quarterbacks five times and also had 10 tackles for loss. UNI was 5-of-16 on third down conversions. The Panthers’ only touchdown came on their second possession of the game, as senior quarterback Tirrell Rennie hit senior wide receiver Jarred Herring on a 27-yard touchdown pass, which gave UNI a 7-0 lead with 9:22 to go in the first quarter. But, the Grizzlies scored on five of their eight first-half possessions en route to an impressive 28-10 lead at intermission. Montana knotted the game at 7-7 with six seconds left in the first quarter on a 1-yard run by redshirt freshman halfback Jordan Canada. The Griz then took the lead for good on their next series, as sophomore quarterback Jordan Johnson broke up the middle for a 6-yard touchdown run, giving UM a 14-7 lead at the 10:50 mark of the second quarter. UNI scored its final points of the game after Johnson’s scoring run on a 21-yard field goal by sophomore kicker Tyler Sievertsen, making it 14-10 Griz with 10:50 to go in the second quarter. The Griz then scored twice more before halftime, the first TD coming on a 10-yard run by junior halfback Peter Nguyen, and the second on a 5-yard pass from Johnson to senior tight end Kavrio Middleton, the latter coming with just 30 seconds remaining until halftime. Johnson had two more scoring passes in the third and fourth quar­ ters, both to junior wide receiver Sam Gratton. The first Johnson-toGratton hook-up covered 8 yards, while the second came from 25 yards out, making it 41-10 Griz with 10:43 left to play. UM closed out the scoring with 8:56 left when senior cornerback Donny Lisowski picked off a Rennie pass for his first career interceptions and sprinted down the left sideline for a 35-yard touchdown, making it the final, 48-10. Johnson was 13-of-20-0 for 196 yards and 3 touchdowns. He also rushed for a game-high 86 yards on 10 carries, while Nguyen had 7 totes for 37 yards and a score. Gratton had 4 catches for 90 yards and the two TDs, while senior wide receiver Antwon Moutra had 3 grabs for 56 yards. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy led UM with 10 tackles, while freshman safety Matt Hermanson had 8 stops, and senior linebacker Alex Shaw added 7. They were followed by sophomore linebacker John Kanongata’a, senior cornerback Trumaine Johnson, and senior safety Mike McCord had 6 tackles each. Kanongata’s had 2.5 tackles for loss and McSurdy had 2.0. Lisowski had an interception, as did sophomore linebacker Brock Coyle. Tru­ maine Johnson, a Buck Buchanan Award finalist, also had an intercep­ tion for the second week in row. Freshman halfback David Johnson led UNI with 68 yards rushing, while Rennie had 22 carries for 51 yards. Rennie was 9-of-19-2 for 93 yards and one TD. Herring had 5 catches for 67 yards and a score. Senior linebacker L.J. Fort, also a Buchanan Award finalist, had a game-high 17 tackles.

HUNTSVILLE, TEXAS - It was a tale of two halfs, and the Grizzlies’ comeback effort was impressive, but fell short in a NCAA FCS semifinal game in SHSU’s Bowers Stadium. The Bearkats (14-0) jumped to a 21-0 first quarter lead, but the Griz scored twice in the second quarter and trailed 28-14 at halftime. The scoring plays in the first half by UM were a 30-yard scoring pass from Jordan Johnson to Jabin Sambrano and a 61yard interception for a score by linebacker Caleb McSurdy. Montana out-scored the Kats 14-3 in the second half and ad­ vanced the ball to the SHSU 49-yard line on its final drive, but SHSU ran out the clock and denied the Grizzlies their eighth trip to the national championship game. Montana (11-3) had its run of consecutive wins end at nine. The Griz “D’ turned it up a few notches in the final 30 minutes, as Sam Houston State had just two first downs in the second half prior to its final, game-clinching drive. Bearkat sophomore halfback Tim Flanders was unstoppable, gaining 287 yards on 26 carries —11.0 yards per tote. He led a Kat ground attack that rushed 51 times for 383 yards. Flanders had eight rushes for 63 yards, including a key 22-yard gain on a 4thand-1 from the SHSU 47-yard line in his team’s final drive. The Kats scored on their first three possessions of the game. Quarterback Brian Bell scored on an 11 -yard run with 10:36 left in the first quarter; Flanders scored on a 69-yard scamper; and Bell connected with Grant Merritt for a 20-yard touchdown pass, giv­ ing the host team a 21 -0 lead at the 1:42 mark of the opening quar­ ter. The Griz finally got on the board when Johnson hit Sambrano for a 30-yard TD pass with 6:27 left in the second quarter to cut the lead to 21-7. The Kats answered with a 27-yard touchdown pass from Bell to Trey Diller with 2:15 left in the half for the 28-7 lead. Johnson was intercepted on the next play from scrimmage, but when the Griz were in need of a big play, the All-American Mc­ Surdy came up big. With a minute left in the half, McSurdy batted down and intercepted Bell’s pass and ran it back for the 61-yard TD. The start of the second half was shaky for Montana, as the Kats pinned the Griz back on their own 13-yard line on their second possession. On the first play of the drive Johnson fumbled the ball and it was recovered by Eric Fieilo on the Grizzly 8-yard line. The Montana defense kept the Kats out of the end zone, but Craig Al­ aniz connected on a field goal from 25-yards out for the 31-14 lead. The Grizzly offense then found its rhythm. On UM’s next pos­ session it drove 61 yards on 10 plays, capped off with a 3-yard scor­ ing run by Canada with 3:36 remaining in the third quarter, cut­ ting the Sam Houston State lead to 31-21. The Griz defense forced the Kats to punt on their next posses­ sion. The Montana offense took advantage of the opportunity, and drove 80 yards capped off when Johnson had a career-long 54-yard run for a touchdown, which cut the Bearkat advantage to 31-28 with 11:26 left in the game. Momentum was on the Grizzlies’ side, and the Montana de­ fense forced the Kats to punt with 9:10 to play giving the offense plenty of time to work with. A promising Grizzly drive failed to materialize into points after Johnson’s pass to an open Sambrano on a post route died in the wind and the pass came up short with 6:00 left in the game. Johnson led the Griz with 64 yards on the ground and was 21of-33-1 passing for a game-high 227 yards with one touchdown. Bell was 11-for-14-1 for 113 yards and two TDs. The Grizzlies outscored the Kats 28-10 after the first quarter including a 7-3 third quarter — the first time all year that Sam Houston has been outscored in the third. “I was proud of how we played the second half,” Griz head coach Robin Pflugrad said. “We really dug ourselves a big hole in the first half and credit Sam Houston State with their play.”

BIG SKY UNVEILS NEW LOGO, BRAND Ogden, Utah (July 16,2012) - The Big Sky Conference unveiled its new logo and branding campaign Monday as part of the leagues Summer KickofFin Park City, Utah.

A new era in the Big Sky Conference begins in 2012-13 as the league enters its 50th year of athletic competition, and its 25th spon­ soring womens collegiate athletics. The Division I Big Sky Conference welcomes the University of North Dakota and Southern Utah Uni­ versity into the fold as full members. Cal Poly and UC Davis join the league as affiliate members in football, where the league competes at the Championship Subdivision level (formerly I-AA). The additions of North Dakota and Southern Utah give the stable Big Sky 11 full institutions and 13 football members. The current line­ up includes four of the six charter members: Idaho State University, The University of Montana, Montana State University and Weber State. Northern Arizona enters its 43rd season in the Big Sky, giving the con­ ference five members with at least 40 years of continuous membership. Eastern Washington University joined the Big Sky Conference in 1987, followed by Portland State University and Sacramento State in 1996. The Big Sky became a nine-team league in 2006 with the addition of the University of Northern Colorado. The league has become one of the strongest Division I conferences in the West and is a national leader in the Football Championship Sub­ division. Six times, Big Sky teams have won the Division I National Championship, including Eastern Washington in 2010. A Big Sky team has played for the national championship in three of the past four sea­ sons. The Big Sky Conference 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 North­ ern 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, beginning 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 North­ ridge departed in the spring of 2001. The Big Sky now includes nine states spanning from the Pacific Ocean to the Red River Valley of North Dakota. The league is repre­ sented along the entire west coast with institutions in Washington, Oregon and California. League schools also range up and down the Rocky Mountains with institutions in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and Colorado.

2011 BSC CHAMPIONS

On Feb 25, 1963, the name Big Sky was adopted by the six presi­ dents of the charter members as the name of the new conference. The name Big Sky originated in a novel written by the late A.B. (Bud) Guth­ rie 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. While on a track and field trip from Pocatello, Idaho, to Missoula, Mont., legendary Dubby Holt of Idaho State saw a “Welcome to Big Sky Country” sign as his team entered Montana. Holt, and his athletes thought “Big Sky” would be a perfect name for the new conference. 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. 20,1963. The Big Sky sponsors championships in 15 sports, including mens and womens cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field, basket­ ball and tennis. In addition, there are also championships in football, and womens volleyball, golf and soccer. This upcoming spring, the Big Sky will sponsor a softball championship for the first time. In 1988-89, the Big Sky Conference first began sponsoring womens sports. The former Mountain West Conference existed from 1982-88, sponsoring championships for womens sports at the same institutions the Big Sky had mens programs. The Big Sky merged with the Moun­ tain West in 1988, forming one league for both men and women. Doug Fullerton, the fifth commissioner of the Big Sky Conference, is in his 18th year at the helm. Fullerton took over the Big Sky on July 1, 1995, replacing longtime commissioner Ron Stephenson, who passed away in 2011. 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.

Fred Smith

-----------------------

‘Two years after The University of Montana opened its doors to stu­ dents, the first football team was organized.

Professor Fred D. Smith, chemistry professor and former football player at Cornell University, volunteered to coach the football team. Twenty-four men turned out. No uniforms were available so many of the players used makeshift clothing.” —The Redbook

F .B . S e a b r i g h t 1898 “Sgt. B.F. Seabright, a graduate and former player at Stanford, was a coach, in 1898. He was engaged by the univer­ sity as instructor in gen­ eral athletics. Students raised an initial SI 10 to help pay the coach’s salary.” Charles Allard kicked the first field goal in the state of Montana at the Thanksgiving game vs. the Montana State College Aggies in Missoula. Montana won 16-0.”-- The Redbook

Guy Cleveland “Prospects for a first class team were not very bright at the start of the 1899 season when Guy Cleveland took over the team. Scarce any of the old players were back and positions had to be filled with untried material.” “In the first game against the Anaconda Athletic Club, Coach Cleveland played right halfback. He made the two touchdowns and kicked goal both times to win for the varsity.” -The Redbook

Frank Bean 1900-1901 “Frank Bean from the University of Wisconsin was selected as coach. A game with Anaconda failed to _______________ materialize, therefore, the only game scheduled in 1900 was with Montana State College.” - The Redbook “The unsuccessful season was due to the lack of experienced players. We had no experienced quarterback.” (Kaimin, student paper)

D e w it t P e e k , 1902 This season saw the organization of the Northwest Intercollegiate Athletic Associa­ tion. Nine Northwest colleges were represent­ ed at a meeting which was held in Spokane.

H .B . Conibear 1903-1904 “Hiram Conibear coached at Illinois University before coming to UM. The 1903 team was the first university football team to be sent out of the state to compete in an athletic Coach Conibear will be remembered by University of Montana fans for at least one contribution, his 1904 team ran up the biggest score in football history against Montana State College, 79-0.” —'The Redbook

F.W. Schuie 1905-1906 A writeup of the 1906 season by Coach Schuie in the yearbook says, “as interesting and as spectacular a game of football as the writer has seen in the far west was played on the Montana field on October 19th. Our men succeeded in holding Washington State’s undefeated team to the closest score made against them this season.”

“Bernie Bierman, the new coach, was an All-America half­ back at the University IlL liilliil of Minnesota in 1915. Probably no season up to this time saw more “firsts” than in 1920. The Grizzlies beat the University of Washington for the only time in history. Montanas football field was moved and named “Dornblaser Field” in honor of Paul Dornblaser, the great Grizzly tackle, who was killed in ac­ tion in World War I. Finally the Grizzlies ran up their biggest score in history a 1330 pasting of Mount St. Charles (Carroll College).” -- Vie Redbook

The Grizzlies return to the playoffs after a one year hiatus was a memorable one, as they advanced to the Football Champion­ ship Subdivision semifinals, losing 31-28 to host, top-ranked, and undefeated (14-0) Sam Houston State Bearkats. Montana has now7 advanced to the playoffs 18 of the past 19 seasons. Montana has won (or shared) 13 of the past 14 Big Sky Conference championships. It w7as a tale of tw7o halves. The Bearkats scored on their first three possessions of the game and jumped to a 21-0 first quarter lead, but the Griz scored twice in the second quarter and trailed 28-14 at halftime. Senior linebacker Caleb McSurdy picked off a SHSU pass with one minute left until intermission and returned it 60 yards for a touchdowm to cut the Rats’ lead to 28-14 at intermission, w7hich helped the Griz regain some needed momentum. The Griz defense w7as stellar in the second half, holding SHSU to tw7o first downs prior to its final, game-clinching drive. Bearkat sophomore halfback Tim Flanders rushed for 287 yards on just 26 carries, and led a ground attack that rushed 51 times for 383 yards. Montana out-scored the Rats 14-3 in the second half and ad­ vanced the ball to the SHSU 49-yard line on its final drive, but was forced to punt, and Flanders rushed eight times for 63 yards, includ­ ing a 22-yarder on a fourth down, to ice the victory for the Bearkats. The Grizzlies outscored the Rats 28-10 after the first quarter includ­ ing a 7-3 third quarter - the first time all year that Sam Houston has been outscored in the third stanza.

It had to end some time, and unfortunately that time was in 2010, as 7-4 Montana failed to make the playoffs for the first time in 18 seasons. Senior halfback Chase Reynolds finished record-breaking career by setting school records for total touchdowns (59) and rush­ ing touchdowms (52), and was just four yards short of the mark for career rushing yards with 4,067 - garnering all of those standards in just three seasons. The Griz suffered a huge loss when senior quarterback Andrew' Selle suffered a career-ending injury in the fourth game of the season against Sacramento State.

2 0 0 9 : A n o th e r Trip To T h e FC S T itle G a m e Montana played in the FCS championship game for the second year in a row7and seventh time in the last 15 seasons. But, second-ranked Villanova rushed 51 times for 351 yards in a 23-21 Griz loss. The set­ back was the top-ranked Grizzlies’ only loss (14-1) of the season. Montanas route to the title game was not easy. Trailing 11thranked South Dakota State by 27 points (48-21) with 5:40 left in the third quarter, the Griz out-scored the Jackrabbits 40-0 on the way to a 61 -48 victory. Marc Mariani and Chase Reynolds, and an outstand­ ing defense, turned the tide for the Griz in the comeback. Mariani started things off with a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdowm, and he also scored twice on passes from Selle, and Reynolds rushed for tw7o scores in the final quarter. The Griz defense held SDSU to 128 total yards and seven first dowms in the final half. A w7eek later UM forced 10 turnovers and crushed 12th-ranked, visiting Stephen F. Austin 51-0 in a quarterfinal contest.

Montanas semifinal showdown against fifth-ranked Appalachian State and dynamic QB Armani Edwards was played in front of a national audience on ESPN, and came down to the last play. With the game knotted 17-all, Selle floated a 25-yard pass to Sambrano in the left corner of the end zone with 1:31 left. Edwards then led his team to Montanas 3-yard line, but a last-second pass was broken up by Johnson and the Grizzlies earned their seventh trip to the title game. Mariani, who was named to the Pro Bowl as a rookie with the Tennessee Titans in 2010, broke numerous receiving and return records in his career. Reynolds tied his own single-season record by rushing for 22 touchdowns. Selle passed for 28 TDs. On defense, linebacker Shawn Lebsock and safety Shann Schillinger ended their careers as two of the leading tacklers in school history. Schillinger was a sixth round NFL draft pick by the Falcons, while Mariani was tabbed in the seventh by the Titans. Head coach Bobby Hauck, who left UM for UNLV following the 2009 season, advanced to the FCS playoffs alio seven of his seasons as the head man and won or shared seven league championships.

2 0 0 8 : M o n ta n a P la y s For Its S ix th N a tio n a l T itle Despite losing 14 starters, Montana made it to the FCS champi­ onship game for the sixth time, losing 24-7 to Richmond in Chat­ tanooga. In the nrst round Montana handled Texas State 31-13. In the quarterfinals the Grizzlies avenged an early-season league loss (4528) at Weber State, defeating the lOth-ranked Wildcats 24-13. In the FCS semi-final game Montana had its biggest playoff road win ever, beating top-ranked James Madison 35-27. For the season, senior quarterback Cole Bergquist passed for 3,156 yards and 28 touchdowns, and wide-out Mike Ferriter finished his ca­ reer ranked ninth in school history with 2,089 receiving yards. Reyn­ olds rushed for a school-record 22 touchdowns. The defense was led by strong safely Colt Anderson, a Buck Buchanan Award finalist, who was Montanas leading tackier with 129 stops. Anderson, who now plays for the Eagles was named their special teams MVP in 2011.

2 0 0 7 : 15th FC S P la y o ff A p p e a r a n c e In a R o w This was the Grizzlies’ 18th overall playoff appearance and their 15th in a row. That 18th FCS playoff berth moved Montana past Eastern Kentucky for the most (17) in division history. Montana suffered a rare home loss in the playoffs, though, a 23-22 setback to Wofford. Senior defensive end Kroy Biermann became Montanas first ever Buck Buchanan Award winner. Senior halfback Lex Hilliard set a

record with 50 rushing touchdowns, which Reynolds broke three seasons later. Kicker Dan Carpenter set FCS career records with 75 field goals and 413 points by a kicker. Senior linebackers Tyler Joyce and Kyle Ryan finished second and sixth in UM history with 352 and 304 career tackles, respectively. Biermann is with the Atlanta Fal­ cons, while Carpenter plays for the Miami Dolphins, and Hilliard was recently signed by the Vikings.

2006: A Trip To The Sem is In 2006 the Grizzlies narrowly missed playing for their sixth na­ tional title in 12 years. After losing at 16th-ranked Iowa in its opener, Montana won 11 straight games, finishing 12-2 overall and 8-0 in the Big Sky. Hilliard, a 2006 Walter Payton Award candidate, was lost for the season due to an injury in fall camp. Senior quarterback Josh Swogger threw 17 TD passes, while senior receivers Eric Allen, Ryan Bagley, and Craig Chambers combined for 147 catches and 17 scores. Halfbacks Reggie Bradshaw, Brady Green, and Thomas Brooks-Fletcher combined for 19 rushing touchdowns. A young de­ fense was ranked ninth in the FCS in total defense, allowing 226.4 yards a game. Host Montana defeated 22nd-ranked McNeese State 31-6 in an FCS first-round game, then knocked off visiting No.10 Southern Il­ linois 20-3 in the quarterfinals, but were edged (19-17) out to thirdranked and visiting UMass in the semi-finals in a game televised na­ tionally on ESPN2. Hauck became the first Griz mentor in history to win four Big Sky titles.

2605: Griz Los® in First Round Montana was 8-4 overall and received an at-large bid into the playoffs. UM was led by Hilliard who rushed for 1,322 yards - the second highest total (at the time) in single-season history. The de­ fense was ranked sixth in the country with a turnover margin at + 1.08. The ninth-ranked Griz hosted a first-round plavoif game, los­ ing 35-21 to 10th-ranked Cal Poly. Montana had defeated Cal Poly 36-27 in Missoula earlier in the season.

2004: Fifth Trip to t h e FC S T itle G a m e in th e L a st 10 S ea so n s Montana was 12-3 and advanced to the FCS championship game for the fifth time in the last 11 years. Senior quarterback Craig Ochs passed for 3,807 yards and 33 touchdowns and set a league record by completing 68.7% of his passes. The Griz defense was ranked third in the country in turnover margin (+1.47) with 38 take-aways. Hilliard tied the school record

The Griz started the season with 10 wins in a row, and, combined with 14 straight wins the year before, they tied the FCS mark for con­ secutive wins with 24. The streak began on September 22 of 2001, with a 30-0 home win over Western Washington, and was halted on Nov. 16 of 2002, with a 30-21 setback at Eastern Washington in a game played in Spokane. Montana tied Pennsylvania, which had 24 wins in a row from 1992-95, for the longest winning skein in the division. The Griz also set the record for most consecutive Big Sky wins (25) and most league victories on the road with 13 in a row . Senior quarterback John Edwards was named the Big Sky’s coMVP on offense and senior safety Trey Young was the leagues defen­ sive player of the year. Montana defeated Northwestern State 45-14 at home in a firstround playoff game, but lost 24-20 at McNeese State in a quarterfinal contest on the road.

2 0 0 1 : S e c o n d N a tio n a l C h a m p io n s h ip 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 handled their first three opponents at home relatively easy, heating Northwestern State (56-7), New Hamp­ shire (47-17), and Sam Houston State (34-13). The title game was a 31-21 loss to James Madison in Chattanooga. Sadly, the championship game was played on a field that was a quag­ mire. The grass playing surface had reportedly recently been re-sod­ ded, and big chunks of grass and dirt were tossed all over the field by the players cleats whenever they ran or cut on the grass playing surface.

Montana won its second national championship, defeating Fur­ man 13-6. Edwards engineered a 16-play, 99-yard scoring drive for UMs only touchdown in the game. Halfback Yohance Humphery, Montanas all-time career rushing leader, gained 142 yards on 30 car­ ries, and scored UMs only touchdown on a 2-yard run. The Griz defense limited the Paladins to 121 yards rushing and forced three turnovers. Furmans only score came on a Hail Mary pass as time expired. Humphery wrapped up his illustrious career with 4,070 career yards. The Grizzlies’ 15 victories set a school record (which still stands) for the most wins in a season. Griz in Playoffs add 2-2-2

2003: Break Playoff Record With 11th in a row

2 0 0 0 : Third Trip t o th e T itle G a m e

Montana broke the FCS record by making its 11th consecutive playoff appearance, eclipsing the mark of 10 that it shared with East­ ern Kentucky, which played in 10 straight from 1986-1995. UM re­ ceived an at-large bid into the playoffs, losing a 43-40 double overtime thriller to visiting Western Illinois in the first round. Senior kicker Chris Snyder set four NCAA career FCS records, scoring 394 points and converting 182 PATs, and a single-season mark scoring 123 points. He also set a record by making 126 con­ secutive PATs. Senior defensive end Tim Bush finished his career as Montanas all-time career leader in sacks (32.5) and tackles for loss (50).

The Griz earned a trip to the championship game for the third time in six seasons, losing a heart-breaker, 27-25 to Georgia Southern in Chattanooga. 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. The lead was short-lived though, as Eagle halfback and 2000 Wal­ ter Payton Award winner Adrian Peterson broke loose for a 57-yard touchdown run for the game-winning touchdown.

The Griz played Youngstown S t a te in a first-round FCS playoff game in 1999.

1999-97: Third Straight First-Round Games The Griz dropped three first-round playoff games during this time, but in 1999 set the Big Sky record with their seventh straight FCS playoff appearance. (The old standard of six was set by former Big Sky member Idaho from 1985-90). In 1999, visiting Youngstown State, coached by Jim Tressel, kicked a late field goal for a 30-27 win. In 1998 Montana suffered its worst playoff setback ever, losing 52-9 at Western Illinois. Mon­ tanas three-game playoff losing streak in the first round began in 1997 with a 19-14 setback at McNeese State.

1996: Moss Too Much In Quest For Second Title In A Row Montana reeled off 14 straight wins to advance to the title game. For the second year in a row they played at Marshall. Former NFL star Randy Moss grabbed four touchdown catches to lead Marshall to a 49-29 win. It was the first time ever two undefeated (14-0) teams played for the crown. In the title game Griz sophomore quarter­ back Brian Ah Yat set (then) playoff records for pass completions with 36 and total plays (67). Senior wide receiver Joe Douglass set a playoff record with 13 receptions. Douglass also set Montana single-season standards with 82 catches for 18 touchdowns (both still school records), along with 1,469 receiving, in just 11 regularseason games.

The Grizzlies won their first national championship with a lastsecond, 22-20 come-from-behind victory over host Marshall in front of an FCS playoff-record crowd of 32,106 (this is still the re­ cord) in Huntington, West Virginia. Walter Payton Award-winning quarterback Dave Dickenson passed for 1,219 yards and 11 touchdowns in Montanas first three playoff games, when UM out-scored its opponents 163-14. In their first three playoff victories, the host Grizzlies beat Eastern Kentucky (48-0), Georgia Southern (45-0), and Stephen F. Austin (70-14). In the title game, Dickenson orchestrated a 12-piay, 72-yard scor­ ing drive, culminating with a 25-yard field goal by Andy Larson with 39 seconds left for the game-winner. The key play in that winning drive came on a fourth-and-three from the 50-yard line, when Dick­ enson hit wide receiver Mike Erhardt on a short slant pass for a 20yard gain and a crucial first down. Senior wide receiver Matt Wells scored both of Montanas touchdowns. Montana set playoff' records for first downs (125), pass completions (137), pass attempts (197), and passing yards (1,703).

1993-1994: A Program On th@ Rise The host Griz squeaked by Northern Iowa 23-20 in a 1994 firstround contest, and then edged visiting McNeese State 30-28 in a snow storm on a game-ending field goal by Larson. Unfortunately, Dickenson was re-injured early in the win over McNeese, and he was not able to play in the semifinal - a 28-9 loss to host Youngstown State, coached by Tressel. In 1993, Montana rolled to a 10-1 regular-season record, with its only blemish a 35-30 loss at Oregon. After that loss to the Ducks, the Griz reeled off nine straight wins and won their first league title since 1982. The season ended in a 49-48 first-round shoot-out loss to visiting Delaware. The Grizzlies' 93 victories in the 1990’s were the second most in the division (Youngstown State won 103). 1989: Griz Host Playoff Games For First Time Montana hosted and won its first playoff game in school history, beating Jackson State 48-7 in the first round. The Grizzlies defeated visiting Eastern Illinois 25-15 in the quarterfinals, and then lost 4515 to eventual national champion Georgia Southern in Statesboro in the semis.

1988 & 1982: In the Playoffs After a six-year hiatus, in 1988, the Griz earned their first at-large bid into the playoffs, losing (38-19) at Idaho. Montanas initial trip to the playoffs came in 1982 when it won its first Big Sky title since 1970. Despite winning the league championship the Grizzlies had to travel to Moscow, Idaho, losing 21-7 to the Vandals.

1969-1970: Montana Plays For A Pair of College Division Titles

Senior wide receive Joe Douglass s e t a playoff record with 13 receptions vs. Marshall in the Division I-AA championship game in 1996.

Montana played for the College Division national championship in 1969 and 1970. The Griz went undefeated and untied for the first time in school history at 10-0 and won their first-ever Big Sky title in 1969. Both years Montana advanced to the Camellia Bowl in Sacramento, Calif., but, missing many starters because of NCAA’s rules on junior college transfers, the under-manned Griz lost 30-3 to top-ranked North Dakota State in 1969 and 31-16 to the same team a year later.
