I noticed that the @ Stetson game - which I thought was part of the agreement, isn't on any future schedules currently. Maybe we're improving in the scheduling department.

This may be more common knowledge than I'm aware of, but does Montana, or NDSU, or SDSU take in enough money to pay FCS programs to come in and play them? ie, Montana got Indiana State to come to Wa-Griz in 2025, Morehead State in 2024, Butler in 2023, Northwestern State in 2022, Western Illinois in 2021, North Alabama and Monmouth in 2019... etc. etc. , these are favorable FCS matchups always played at home, with almost none of them reciprocated with a return away game (Indiana State got Montana at home in 2022).

Are those paid games? Or is it just for the privilege of playing Montana in Missoula? If that's the case, it's A+ scheduling.

This is what Plough was eluding to when he gave his introductory press conference...Montana having 1000 supporters donating $1000, sounded like annually. The body bag game is not necessary, but one could be arranged under scrutiny - ie, playing Nevada this season or somebody who is beatable, and still getting paid. The joy of having the funds, and a huge home field to pay you with sellouts - you can go out and schedule 7 or 8 home games a year, and only be subject to away games per your conference schedule.

As we all saw, Idaho State, battle tested, gave Montana the game of their lives - first taste of road adversity for the Griz.

Two things Davis needs to continue to improve on:
1. Donations and securing additional funds for improvements and general program funding. Sounds like Ignite is tackling this as we expand up to the Mountain West.
2. Keep the upward trend of ticket sales going. Sell Out, Sell Out, Sell Out your home games.

Ravens are getting bombed right now - sounds like injuries have taken a toll (Lamar Jackson isn't playing), and through all that Buchanan is getting nearly all the snaps, but they are not performing well at all...or are on the field way too much. Tough situation for TB.

Thought that kid from Montana was going to get it - he was all over the place making plays for the Griz against Idaho State. WR Michael Wortham --- guy's from NE Sacramento too.

Congrats to Pinnick, I think he won it on that 50 yard strike into the corner of the end zone - rewatching that pass...I think I muttered, "Dan Lanning is going to see that pass at some point."

If that's the outcome of this season, it means Pinnick flipped the switch all year. I have a feeling we'll be in a bit of a shootout this Saturday.

Be lucky to get one - whoever's having the magic season.

Yup, OL play hurt all the time - I know there will be an emphasis on health this week...we need to really scheme it up against NAU and find a way to win, sounds like that game is going to be full of Aggie fans. Expecting a huge turnout.

Sounds like Nava and Rodriguez are battling injuries now.

Tick Tock - thanks to CFC:

I believe Wally's getting the full highlight/game here this afternoon - when it's time it'll get posted here to cap off a week of mixed emotions for the Aggie Football Program.

Pinnick, beautiful touch pass for TD to Jones:

Never too tired to analyze the game, Brock and Dwight break down the gritty win by the Ags against that team down south:

Southern Utah gave Tarleton State a massive test yesterday...going toe-to-toe most of the game;...in Texas.

Sounds like it was a tightly contested game - some home cookin' missed calls - but SUU continues to have issues defensively giving up 50+:
