No. 3-ranked Montana State came back from a 10-point halftime deficit Saturday to beat No. 22 Weber State 38-33 at Bobcat Stadium in Bozeman, preserving head coach Brent Vigen's perfect home record in Big Sky Conference play.
The Bobcats are now 22-0 all-time under Vigen in conference home games — a stretch that has become one of the defining statistics of his tenure in Bozeman. Weber State had the Bobcats on the ropes in the first half, but MSU made the adjustments at the break and gradually took control of the second half to close out a five-point win.
The victory keeps Montana State in position at the top of the Big Sky standings as the conference season moves toward its final weeks. For Griz fans in Helena, the result is worth watching: a healthy, ranked MSU team in the second half of the season is exactly the kind of opponent the Grizzlies would face if both programs advance deep into the FCS playoffs.
