Live from Washington Grizzly Stadium

  • Some ugly weather today, drizzling and about 40 degrees.
  • We'll see if turnovers play into today.
  • Texas State won the toss and will receive - time to get out to a fast start.
  • Bobcats get on the board first with a 47-yard field goal from Andrew Ireland. False start to begin the drive, but Texas State moved the ball well throughout.
  • After allowing Montana to convert a long third down, the Bobcat defense locked down and forced a punt. If Texas State scores here, it could take the LOUD crowd out of the game.
  • The Bobcats fail to capitalize, they punt it away.
  • INTERCEPTION, TEXAS STATE. Morris Crosby picks the ball...Bobcat ball at their own 42-yard line.
  • TOUCHDOWN BOBCATS. 16-YARD CATCH BY CAMERON LUKE. George settles in and locks in. 10-0 TX STATE.
  • Karrington Bush fumbles. Don't expect to see him again today.
  • The Bobcats' defense is stepping up today, with some big stops. Every UM drive has either ended in a punt or turnover.
  • Texas State's defense doesn't look to good to open the second half. Two straight runs opened for 15 yards and then the secondary broke down for a 40-yard gain.
  • The Bobcats forced a 3rd-and-18, but UM quarterback Cole Bergquist rushes for a 21-yard touchdown. Texas State missed three tackles (Courtney Smith, Michael Rutlidge and Travis Houston).
  • If the Bobcats don't come out and score on this drive, consider the momentum turned.
  • Well, the momentum has flipped. Texas State failed to score and Montana takes the ball back and scores on its next drive. The Bobcats are now down 21-10. Missed opportunities and tackles have killed Texas State today.
  • The Bobcats kick a field goal to bring it within 21-13, and stopped a second-and-10 for a 1-yard gain, but a personal foul gives Montana a first.
  • Texas State stops the Grizzlies on a third-and-7, yet, another personal foul (this time by Kenneth Hampton) gives them a first down.
  • Bobcat head coach Brad Wright grabbed Hampton by the facemask for a while when he came to the sideline.
  • Montana scores on a 1-yard touchdown run by Reynolds, giving it a 28-13 lead with 12:50 remaining in the game.
  • Texas State running back Alvin Canady coughed it up on the 3-yard line, the Grizzlies marched down the field and kicked a 37-yard field goal to open up the game, 31-13.
  • The Bobcats were outclassed by Montana in this one.
