Getting ready to make the long drive out there on Wednesday. Montana just beat North Dakota, a team we beat last season, 24-23. Hoping we play them in a very competitive game and I don't drive 26 hours for a blowout.

I'm going out there too but I won't be driving.

What’s the opening spread on the game?

What’s the opening spread on the game?

Most FCS lines don't come out until 12 hours or so before kickoff--sometimes less. The thought is with smaller schools there is more likelihood of inside info being out there and they want to prevent "sharps" from taking advantage/moving the line and give them as little time as possible. Also they get less action so they're in a lower priority to get the lines out early.

Well the line is out somewhat early. Montana favored -27.5. O/U 56.5. ISU +1400 ML Montana is -4000.

If we keep it within 14 pts I will be happy ( at least a little bit).

Calm down fans, the bandwidth on this message board can only take so much data. Good to see so many people excited about this game.

Factoids from the ISU notes and Grizz forum.....this is the farthest west ISU football has ever travelled. And ISU football has a winning record when playing games on Sept 20. LOL
