College Football BEST Kept SECRET... (The History of Montana Football)
Рет қаралды 20,151
6 ай бұрынMissoula Montana is one of my favorite places on earth. Made famous by the movie A River Runs Through It and known for its blue-ribbon trout fishing. Home to Mary’s Mountains Cookies and the Notorious PIG, which are some of my favorite spots to eat at. But it is also home to the University of Montana. The Montana Grizzlies Football program is one of the best at the FCS level and plays in one of the best stadiums in all of college football. This is the story of Montana Football. This is the story of the Greatest kept secret in all of college football.

I'm from Virginia and first learned about Montana football while watching local team JMU upset the Grizzlies in the 2004 National Championship. A few years later, I watched my dad's alma mater, Richmond, also defeat Montana to win the title. I gained a lot of respect for the program in Missoula after those games. Great fan support, great stadium, great program. And that classic 2015 game where they upset #1 North Dakota State on ESPN while playing in wildfire smoke was awesome as well.

@kylehoward9601 5 ай бұрын
might've confused it with his brother Tim. who played for Montana and then the Packers ( I think it was the packers ) and went on to coach special teams for NFL. He won a super bowl as a coach with the Eagles in 2017. I think Marty Mornhinweg had a part in that too, but ...now that I look i up I might be wrong about that.

As a Griz alum, i think you did a great job. Appreciate you putting this together. Many big programs make fun of Wa Griz, as we call her but i have been on the field level, during some very instense games. Make no doubt, that stadium, from a noise level, can compete with many large FBS stadiums. Doubt me, come attend a game, we love all college football fans

Went to school at U of M in the 70s, when they played at Doernblazer Stadium, before the Griz became the powerhouse they are today. We used to call them 'The Fizzlies'! Didn't matter, games were always fun, win or lose. I come from 5 generations of Nebraskans, so I can be a loyal fan of both teams. 1995 was a great year for me, Huskers and Griz, both national champs! It's nice to see some Montana guys showing up on the field in Husker red of late. Here's wishing both of my teams good luck, and many more Natties in the near future!

In my opinion you know how in College Basketball, there's too many teams that people like, you know Georgetown, Xavier, and Villanova and then there's the power houses like Virginia, North Carolina, Duke and Kansas, I think it'll be something similar in College Football since alot schools will make the leap from FCS School to a Group of 5 FBS School

I don't think the monetary gain for them is worth it for those schools due to their success, tradition, and rivalries all around. The travel costs would be insane for SDSU and NDSU to both the MAC and the MWC with no real traditional rivalries other than themselves. All four have strong brand recognition and fanbases due to their success at the FCS level and I think they are helping it grow more
