Yesterday’s snowy Cat & Griz games [pics]
Yesterday, the Bobcats and the Grizzlies hosted first round playoff games in the FCS football championship tournament. The weather was bonkers, and showed the home field advantage teams in Montana have. The Griz DOMINATED poor San Diego, whose player have likely never seen snow before. And while the Cats fell just short, they covered the spread and were facing an opponent used to cold weather (south dakota state). Enjoy the pics below, and us your pics from the game if you happened to attend and survive!
Things started out pretty nice in Missoula.
