MISSOULA — Coming off a 42-33 road victory over Eastern Washington last week, No. 12-ranked Montana is set to welcome Big Sky foe Portland State for a 1 p.m. kickoff Saturday at Washington Grizzly Stadium.
The Grizzlies snapped a two-game losing streak last week with a typical offensive showing and a better defensive output, which produced 11 quarterback sacks. Coming into this week, Montana is 6-3 overall and 4-2 in the league. Portland State, under first-year coach Chris Fisk, is 2-7 overall and 2-4 in the Big Sky.
On this week's edition of the Griz Insider show, hosts Kyle Hansen of MTN Sports and Montana play-by-play voice Riley Corcoran are joined by head coach Bobby Kennedy and edge defender Clay Oven.
