I am hoping Roper finally finds his footing and Chase becomes a little less assertive and hides behind his blockers more like he did last year. I feel he may be over-confident and a little too giddy.

Kickoff scheduled for 1 pm MDT, noon in Portland. Only five players are on this current Viking team that were on the team two years ago when they last played in Missoula, including Hubel who will start at QB for the Vikings. Woods suffered a slight ankle sprain on a freak injury during practice on Tuesday but is expected to start. Portland State has not won in Missoula since 1985. Weather should be good at the start of the game with an increasing chance of showers as the game goes on, with temps near 80. This is the third game for both and the conference opener for both teams.

The game will be on 800 KPDQ in the Portland area. It will also be shown on TV live on Comcast-Portland.

[SeattleGriz]

Get to watch the game on Comcast Sports Northwest up in the Seattle area (ch 179 - Kirkland Comcast).

I got beer and food last night. Got my colors on. I am ready.

Portland takes the opening drive 75 yards in 6:00 to score first.

KPAX is garbage - it looks like I am watching a black and white, the camera is moving everywhere - and the commentary is reminiscent of me with a tape recorder at age six.

Now take that shot, and send it through the net and you have BigSkyTV. I keep telling people, garbage in garbage out.

It was close. Roper dared to go over there, and he got hit big.

Gettin' nervous yet Griz fans?

Most were nervous BEFORE this game....

[SeattleGriz]

Brody McKnight misses 53yd FG for the Griz. Long enough, wide left.

PSU snaps the ball over the punter's head and Montana jumps on it in the endzone.

PF against the Vikings was a bullshit call.

These officials are obivously not able to deal with the emotion from both teams. Too many PF calls so far that to me look like just plain football. Let them play, refs.

not watching it - but it sounds like the refs are trying to keep a chippy game from getting out of hand...
