2024 Week 11: UC Davis (8-1) @ Montana (7-2) I think this game will come down to how well can the Aggie defense contain Montana's 2 headed monster at running back. Both Eli Gillman and Nick Ostmo are putting up very good numbers. Gillman has 105 rushes for 792 yards (7.3 avg) and 12 TDs while Ostmo has 105 rushes for 684 yards (6.4 avg) and 3 TDs. They have efficient QB play, but that is complementary to what they want to do on the ground.
If we are able to contain the run game then we have a pretty solid chance. If we don't, we all know what that Montana crowd is capable of once they smell blood in the water.
Updated Massey numbers give the Aggies a 33% chance of winning which I find pretty interesting. I personally think it's closer to a toss up, but what do I know.
