I wonder if NDSU brought the younger kickoff guy? Would be good to kick it deep or through the endzone but I'm not sure if we have a guy that can do that.

I would sure think he would be (that's #81 Eli Ozick) since I believe he's handled every kickoff in the playoffs so far. Touchbacks on kickoffs and fair catches on punts should be the goal today for the specialists. Don't let Bergen spark them.

I'll take a 35 yarder that's fair caught over a 45 yarder that he has a chance to return every single time.

Agreed - I'd even take a pop up kickoff that gives them the ball on the 30 yard line or so over giving him a chance to bust one. Make them sustain drives (easier said then done with their skill players and the inconsistent tackling from the Bison defense).

Montana thinks the Bison will lose.

They're wrong.

NDSU 38, Griz 17

When the bracket came out, I was confident that the Bison could get to this game. At the time, I didn't know if the Bison could win this game. Bison need to start fast and play with a lead in this game. Cam needs to have the offense rolling, and the defense needs to find ways to make stops. Special teams might be the difference in this game. I think it will be close but don't count out the heart of the Bison! I love beating the Montana schools.

I'm hoping our offense is humming and we don't have to punt.
