Saturday was the big state rivalry game between the Montana State Bobcats and the University of Montana Grizzlies. This was the 109th meeting between these two teams and this game is huge in Montana. Gary and I went to Billings for Thanksgiving dinner shopping, then we went to the sport bar Bones to watch the game. We are Griz fans.
Surprisingly the bar was not crowded and we had our pick of where to sit. We chose a table that was right in front of a tv. Our view was not blocked by anyone sitting in front of us. We ate lunch as they have great burgers here. Most of the crowd were Grizzly fans, but there were plenty of Bobcat fans there as well.
Needless to say the Grizzlies won, 33-19 and once again is undefeated in the regular season. This makes the 4th time that the Grizzlies have an undefeated season, now we are headed to the playoffs.
The Grizzlies are ranked #1 in the standing for the playoffs and first team we play is the SDSU (South Dakota) Jackrabbits. The game will be held in Missoula, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that it will air on one of the Billings tv stations. If not will be listening to the game ont he radio. This is the 17th straight year that the Grizzlies have been in the post season playoffs. They haven't won it 17 times, but they have been in the playoffs.
