While Montana State is a FCS team, they should not be taken lightly coming off a FCS National Championship game appearance. Oregon State is better than in years past and this should still be a victory you can pencil in on the schedule though. The Bobcats head coach is Brent Vigen who was born and raised to be a head coach in the Montana region, he previously spent a bunch of years with North Dakota State and also Wyoming football.
Montana State is going to try and run the ball against the Beavers. Isaiah Ifanse is in the discussion for greatest Bobcat running back of all time.
