Can the Cats score more than the Vikings?

And what other insightful comments will come out of Bozeman?

Another big test for both teams. Vikings, despite being 4-1 and two FBS wins, aren't getting a lot of respect.

I don't think the question is "Can the Cats score more" it should be "Can the vikings score more than the Cats." Time will tell, and we will all know about 3 hours after they start the game. Should be a game that both teams show up and wear football unis for.

Fascinating as always. I hadn't thought about the Vikings scoring more angle.


Do you know what color uniforms the Cats will be wearing?

"Can the vikings score more than the Cats."
I have it on good authority that the Vikimgs are game planning to do exactly that.

It isn't something that is thought of a lot, but PSU is pretty good at scoring more than their opponent..I think they have done it 4 out of 5 games this year, if memory serves me right. You really have to have played the game to understand the subtle nuance of it.

I have heard they are looking at some combination of White, Blue and Gold.

MSU hasn't been great on the road, but still a game that could go either way based on the Prukop factor.

How MSU's run defense does will probably be the biggest key. They rank 11th. in the league in yardage allowed and 10th. in ypc defense.

Big Sky's #1 Offense VS. Big Sky's #1 Defense

Should be a game
