Montana is playing Ferris State next season

Yikes. You may remember Ferris State coming to NDSU back in 2013 which I believe was their coach's (Tony Annese) first year. Despite a lopsided score, they looked pretty impressive: Football vs Ferris State on 9/7/2013 - Box Score - NDSU (gobison.com)

Well, they've gone 115-17 under Annese and won the last two D2 titles. I respect Montana for daring to schedule these guys but, holy carp, what were they thinking? Are they wanting to celebrate the 20th anniversary of getting beat by a D2 team?

They are probably bringing them in so they can get a closer look at Ferris's coach. He might be on their future hires list.

History repeats itself. It would be funny if it did...

This reminds me of when Montana scheduled Dixie State. There's a thread that was started that was pretty funny.

Montana has no desire to move up, so they should play them

The modern D2 is so bad, it's really not a huge acomplishment. Very few D2 schools even spend the full allotment of scholarships

Looking at that Bison starting defense, holy moly

DL- Jirik, Emanual, Drevlow and Perry
LB - Beck, Olson, Littlejohn
CB - CJ Smith & Marcus
S - Heagle and Dudzik

That...must have been one of the most fun defenses of all time.

We should consider ourselves lucky that we lived on the Earth at the same time as this group.

Montana State schedules Ferris.


SDSU Jacks: "Hold my beer!"

Bunnies schedule Western Oregon.

It would be funny if Ferris State smoked cigars in the locker room after beating Montana.
