Finally. The last primetime FCS title game was the first Frisco one in 2010 (technically Jan. 2011).

Having it be at 10:00 AM MST and/or competing with the NFL was stupid.

Why would you leave when you just started in the national title game? Did Montana get some unbelievable stud at QB that threatened his job or some...

The Eagles may benefit from LBSU's dubious firing of Monson in March. Monson, of course, began Gonzaga's mid-major powerhouse run with an Elite-8 appearance in 1999. He then spent 7+ seasons at Minnesota and 17 with the 49ers in Long Beach. His last decade-plus at LBSU wasn't great, though, as they ...

The Big Sky's first coaching change has finally happened. After Matt Logie withdrew from the Washington State job, that left EWU's David Riley as the only real suitor remaining. Riley went 62-38 in 2 seasons in Cheney and dominated the Big Sky regular-season, but there's a bitter taste for Eagle fan...

The Citadel? Zzzzuh?

Also, Western Illinois is gone to the Big South/OVC now.

The Big Sky basketball season is officially over as NAU lost to South Dakota in Vermillion in the second round of the WNIT 79-65. The 'Jacks led by 6 at the half and by 2 after three quarters, but they went 5/22 from the field in the fourth and were outscored 28-12. South Dakota went 27/28 from the ...

The Lady Griz season came to an end as they lost to NDSU in Fargo 72-63. Montana went 11-24 from three but just 10/37 (27%) inside the arc. The Bison thoroughly dominated the glass 46-25; Dani Bartsch had 13 boards for UM, but the rest of the team combined only had 12 (8 if you take out "TEAM&q...

The Griz men lost to Arkansas State 74-61 in the CBI quarterfinals, thus ending the season for men's Big Sky.

Northern Colorado's season came to an end in Daytona Beach after losing to Cleveland State 51-49. The Bears badly missed their stars as Dejour Reaves is in the portal and Saint Thomas didn't play for some reason (I don't think he's in the portal). NoCo went 1/18 from three and shot 18% from the fiel...

This will be the 5th. meeting between Carroll & Providence this season, with each team having won 2 thus far. Carroll starts 3 former Lady Griz players including NAIA All-American Jamie Pickens.

Eastern Washington's 13-game win streak came to an end in Corvallis as they lost to Oregon State 73-51. The Eagles led 18-10 late in the first quarter, but they struggled mightily to make shots and defend the post after that. The Beavers lost turnovers 19-7, but they won shooting 55%-30% and rebound...

Northern Colorado, who made the WNIT for some reason, lost to Texas-San Antonio 80-62 in the first round. The Bears shot 50% in the odd-numbered quarters but only 26% in the even-numbered quarters (UTSA shot 48% for the game). It didn't help the Bears that they had multiple players enter the portal ...

Montana beat Boise in the first round of the WNIT 92-66. The Lady Griz led by about 10 for most of it, but Boise really went cold down the stretch and the lead ballooned. Montana shot 52% from the field and went 15/25 from three. And Macey Huard (Brock's daughter), who had a career-high 16 points i...

As an aside, the WBI is not happening this year. They were plugging the thing (which would've been played in tandem with the CBI in Daytona Beach) on their twitter just 5 days ago, but they announced today that they hope to be back for 2025.

Aaaaaannnnd the Griz get thoroughly whipped over the last 14 minutes and lose by 15.

I don't feel like looking it up, but I wonder if this is the first Big Sky Tournament winner to have a non-DI loss?

The Griz were up 11, but now they're down 4 with 10:06 to go.
