MISSOULA, MONTANA - The Uni versity of Montana Grizzlies return 13 start ers and 43 lettermen from a 9-4 team that finished 5-2 in league and in a three-way tie for the Big Sky Conference champion ship a year ago and was ranked 14th in The Sports Network/CSTV final poll. Last season Montana set a record by advancing to the Division l-AA playoffs for the 11th season in a row. Another water mark that UM reached was its 18th con secutive winning season (since 1986). The Griz have won or shared six straight Big Sky championships, and nine in the past 11 seasons, dating back to 1993. However, that impressive list of streaks and accomplishments are old news as the Griz head into the 2004 season, as they have numerous big shoes to fill with the departure of several key players. Last season the Griz had one of the top-scoring teams in l-AA football, as they were 17th in l-AA in scoring (33.1 ppg). Offensively, lost are all-conference se lections Dylan McFarland and Jon Skin ner at tackle, along with center Derek Decker. Other losses on offense are 13game starting wide receiver Dane Oliver and all-league fullback Brad Weston. McFarland, a two-time All-American at UM, was a seventh-round draft pick of the Buffalo Bills, while Skinner signed a free agent contract with the San Diego Charg ers. On defense, the Griz must replace one of their all-time sack leaders in All-Ameri can end Tim Bush as well as safety Dave DeCoite, and starting linebackers Brent Meyers, Joel Robinson, and Andy Thomp son, and cornerback Vern Smith. DeCoite and Meyers were first team all-league picks last season, and they tied for the team lead with 85 tackles each. Last season Montana was also ranked among the division’s top defenses — 21 st in total defense (310.7 yards a game), and fifth in rushing defense, giving up just 93.6 yards per contest. The Griz also need to replace All-Ameri can kicker Chris Snyder, who signed a free agent co ntract with the Detroit Lions. Snyder, the Big Sky’s all-time scorer with 394 career points, was a three-time first team all-conference selection. Despite the loss of so many key play ers, second-year Montana head coach Bobby Hauck is enthused about this year’s team. “ Right now I am very excited about where this team is at, and the potential it has,” Hauck said. “ I like where we are go ing into the 2004 season. “Offensively, we led the league in scor ing last season, and we’re going to strive

WHERE

WE ARE

for more balance this year,” Hauck contin ued. “The bottom line is to put points on the board, control the clock, and not put your defense in jeopardy. This season we will be more balanced on offense; we’ll take care of the football better; and we’re going to have some new looks on offense, so that teams can’t gam e-plan us too much in the off-season. “ Personnel dictates what you do in ev ery facet of the game, and offensively last year we suffered through a substantial number of injuries, and that dictated our game plan,” Hauck said. “We also played a couple of games in extrem ely poor weather; we were up big in the second half of a couple of games; and all of those things add up to running the football. “We’re striving for balance and I like the way our throwing game has shaped up,” Hauck said. “ Our offense had a great spring and should be multi-dimensional this season. “ Defensively, we will be young in some positions,” Hauck said. “ It is not a very vet eran group, but I like where we are. Our defensive tackles are going to anchor the defense, as they are our most veteran play ers. “At all of the positions, except the de fensive tackle position, we will be less ex perienced than we were a year a go ,” Hauck said. “ But, we’ll be faster and more athletic across the board. All things being equal, you like to be fast and athletic on defense, and the physical part of the game is something that our players take to. “Overall, I think we will be an athletic, physical, fast defense,” Hauck said. “We have continued to emphasize physical play. I like the way our guys fly around the field. We’ve set a standard on our team that we are going to play with great effort for four quarters, and that will show up this fall when we take the field. “ Looking back at last year, our special teams were very good in several catego ries, and I think we are right where we need to be in our return and coverage areas,” Hauck said. “One of the big deals for us heading into fall camp for us is to find a kicker,” Hauck said. “ (Sophomore) Paul Cahill and (true freshman) Dan Carpenter are going to compete for that job. They’ve got big shoes to fill. Chris Snyder had, by far, his best season last year. We need our kicker to be at or near that level again this year.”

Senior quarterback Jeff Disney

OFFENSE • Quarterback The Grizzlies have a talented pair of se nior quarterbacks in Craig Ochs (6-2, 205) and Jeff Disney (6-1, 198), who accounted for 14 of UM’s 15 passing touchdowns last season. After overcoming a preseason in jury, Ochs started UM’s final eight games of the year, passing for 1,612 yards and nine touchdowns. Disney started in the Griz zlies’ first three contests and threw for 509 yards and five scores. “ I really like our quarterbacks,” Hauck said. “ I’d put our quarterbacking core up against darn near any. Craig had a great off-season. He’s ready to go and he’s healthy. Jeff Disney is as good a back-up as anybody has. Jeff has started games, he’s won games, and he’s going to play a lot of football for us this year. I am looking for big things out of Craig Ochs this year. He is an outstanding leader and person.” Waiting in the wings will be redshirt fresh men Casey Cordial (6-0, 185) and Drew Hedrick (6-1, 185). “ Our two young kids, Casey and Drew have done a good job,” Hauck said. “ (True freshman) Cole Bergquist (6-2, 192) is a young player who we have high hopes for and will most likely be the future of our pro gram.”

2004 Outlook seasons. Colt and Ben give us what Brad Weston gave us a year ago at the ‘H’ spot, and we are hop ing that Brian Carlson (a 6-2, 230-pound s o p h o m ore) can p ro v id e us some depth there too.”

• Running Back The Grizzlies may have the most tal ented trio of running backs than they have had at one time in school history this sea son in Justin Green, Lex Hilliard and JR Waller. Green (6-0,235), a senior, was voted the Big Sky’s “ Newcomer of the Year,” in 2003, when he started in the last nine games and rushed for 1,146 yards. Green’s yardage total was the fourth most in single-season history. Hilliard (6-0, 225) rushed for 590 yards and five scores, played in 12 games, and started in the Sam Houston State game as a “true” freshman. Waller (5-9, 210), a junior, played in 12 contests and started in three of UM’s first four games last year, gaining 344 yards and rushing for two TDs. “ It’s hard to say that any one of those guys is the best running back in the league, or in the nation, or in school history; but as a group they have got to be one of the best in the country,” Hauck said. “They are all effort players. They are team guys who just want to help us win. They are all physical running backs and have somewhat differ ent strengths. We are looking forward to another year with that group.”

• Offensive Line Due to the graduation of three-year start ers and all-conference players McFarland, Skinner, and Decker, Hauck said, “ I think that the offensive line is probably the big gest question mark on our team, outside of the kicker’s position. When you lose play ers like that, especially Dylan McFarland, who was not only our lone draft choice and maybe our best player, but he was also one of our team captains. “We’ve got lot of work to do on the offen sive line, but I like the progress they have made,” Hauck said. “We’ve got some good, young players in there, and an influx of freshman who are extremely talented. It’s going to take some hard work by our offen sive line group, but we are counting on them to come through for us.” Senior All-Am erican candidate Cory Procter (6-5, 295) started all 13 games a year ago, and was moved from right to left tackle, with the departure of McFarland. Procter has been an honorable mention all league selection the past two seasons. The other returning starter on the O-Line is junior honors candidate Brad Rhoades (6-5, 285). Rhoades started all 13 games at left guard last season and has since as sumed the starting role at right tackle. Senior Jay Green (6-3, 295) was thrust into a starting role last season when Decker was injured and he started in seven games, and Green will start at center or guard this year.

G IT I

• Wide Receiver The Griz return five of their top six receivers from a year ago. Senior Junior Jefferson H eidelberger led (m ost receptions) the team with 41 catches for 433 yards and a score. He is fo l lowed by Tate Hancock (32-382-3), Jon Talmage (24-507-5), Walden (19284-3), and Levander Senior center Garth Enger (Photo by Mike Bashor) Segars (18-192-0). “ Hopefully the most improved aspect At the guard slots, junior Chris Orwig (6of our team will be at wide receiver,” Hauck 5,288) emerged as the starter at left guard, said. “We need to get more production while promising sophomore and honors out of that group. Jefferson Heidelberger candidate Jeff Marshall (6-5, 275) lost last had the best spring practice of anybody season with an injury, but is an honors can on our football team. Talmage and Segars didate in 2004 and should start at right continue to progress. Tate Hancock has guard. played some good football for us.

It’s a group that should but was sidelined with an injury. Enger, be deep, and we’re counting on them to who is expected to be 100 percent in time make more plays than they did a year for fall drills, started several games at cen ago.” ter as a sophomore. Senior Mike Costanzo and redshirt Also looking to contribute on the offen freshman Brandon Dwyer may also see sive line are senior Dylan Brown (6-4,290), action at receiver, while incoming fresh junior Jason Frink (6-4, 280), and sopho men Ryan Bagley and MattTroxel excelled more Ryan Wells (6-4, 282). at the prep level, and a couple of possible “We think with our depth issues on the four-year transfers could be impact play offensive line, maybe a freshman or two ers. will have to contribute for us this year, ” Hauck noted.

DEFENSE

• Tight EndI Fullback

• Defensive End

Senior Willie Walden (6-7, 275) is not only a formidable target, but his improved play the past couple of seasons had led to him being a 2004 All-American candidate. Last season Walden started 12 games and was the Grizzlies’ fifth-ranked receiver with 19 catches for 284 yards and three scores. Junior Ja Ton Simpson (6-5, 244) had an outstanding spring. Simpson, who is look ing for his first career reception, has hope fully overcome the injury bug which has plagued him the past couple of seasons. Adding quality depth are senior Colt Palmer (6-1, 230) and junior Ben Winn (64, 236). “We really like Willie and Ja Ton’s play at this point of tim e,” Hauck said. “ I think they will both make big jumps this fall and they both have the potential to have great

Bush left UM as its all-time sacks leader with 34.5, while Ciche Pitcher had 17 sacks in two-plus seasons in his injury-short ened career. Lance Spencer (6-4, 255) was headed toward a banner season a year ago, but was injured in the Weber State game and lost for the season. A junior All-American candidate, Spencer has added almost 20 pounds in the off-season and is expected to be 100 percent by fall camp. Sophomore honors candidate Mike Murphy (6-3,240), who had 31 tackles last season, will start at one end spot. Murphy, who has also added about 20 pounds since last season, was thrown into the line up last year as a true freshman because of injuries, and played in all 13 games and started in two.

2004 Outlook U p-and-com ing sophom ores Mike Potts (6-4, 235) and Dustin Dlouhy (6-2, 238) are expected to see plenty of play ing time. “ Our ends looked good th is past spring,” Hauck said. “The biggest ques tion mark is how quickly Lance Spencer’s knee will respond, although I am expect ing him to have a banner year. Mike Murphy, Mike Potts, and Dustin Dlouhy all continue to get better, and they are being coached by a veteran pass- rush ing coach in Fred von Appen, so I would expect that to continue. Dan Carr and Jason Carriger provide us with depth, and are two hard-charging guys.”

• Defensive Tackie This veteran group had five different players who started at least in one game last season. Jonny Varona (6-3,280) was a second team all-league pick a year ago and started 12 games, while fellow senior Blake Horgan (6-3, 275) was an honor able mention all-league pick, as was jun ior Alan Saenz (6-2, 285). Horgan started nine games last sea son and is UM’s leading returning tackier with 41 stops in 2003. Varona had 12 starts last year and is the team’s secondleading (tie) returning tackier (39). Senior John Cahill (6-2, 280) missed the later part of last season with an injury but had three starts. Saenz played in all 13 contests and had one start, as did tal ented sophomore Kerry Mullan (6-3,290). “The deepest and most experienced sp ot on our defense is at defensive tackle,” Hauck said. “We’re going to count on those guys to carry the day, especially early in the season, as our inexperienced players figure it out. Those guys need to be the anchor for our defense.”

• Linebacker Meyers, Robinson, and Thompson had 37 starts between them in 2003, and were UM’s first (tie), third, and fourth leading (tie) tacklers last year with 85, 62, and 41 stops, respectively. The Griz return two players with starts under their belts at linebacker in seniors Nick Vella (6-2, 230) and Adam Hoge (511, 225). Vella had 26 tackles and two starts last year, while Hoge played in all 13 games a year ago and started in 14 contests as a sophomore. Veteran Shane MacIntyre, a 6-2, 222pound junior, earned the starting job at the “Sam” linebacker position, and had 23 tackles last year. Junior Kyler Noel (61, 235) provides depth. The Griz have three extremely talented redshirt freshmen who will see action this

year in Alex Hawthorne (6-1,225), Kyle Ryan (6-3, 22), and Loren Utterback (6-2, 218). “ Our linebacking position is indicative of our entire defense, because we have competition going on for starting roles in all 11 spots,” Hauck said; “and the most heated competition is at linebacker. We’ve got some upperclassmen competing with freshmen. We’re athletic and fast at line backer this year which is exactly what we want. They are all physical players who can run and hit. We will see a lot of growth at that position as the season goes on.”

SECONDARY • Cornerback Junior Kevin Edwards (6-2, 195) and sophomore Chris Clark (5-11, 175) both started the last several games of the 2003 season. Edwards was moved from safety to cornerback and became the starter there when Smith was injured in the Portland State game. Clark was activated as a true freshman and started the last seven games of the year. Edwards had a team-high four intercep tions last season and is UM’s fourth lead ing returning tackier (37 total stops). Junior Chris Polhemus (6-2, 195) and sophomore Tuff Harris (6-0, 185) had one and three starts respectively a year ago. “ Chris Clark got pulled out of redshirt status in game six and had to start for us, and he did a nice job,” Hauck said. “Chris is bigger and stronger by a large margin this year. Kevin played extremely well for us, and Tuff Harris seems to get better ev ery time he takes the field. Those three guys will provide the nucleus for us, and Chris Polhemus is a good technician in whom we have a lot of confidence.”

tion. Van Cooper is pushing both of them to see who will be the starter. Van’s a name that everyone will know soon around here. “At the safety position we are going to look for a newcomer to provide depth, and that may be Tyler’s younger brother Torrey (Thomas), or (transfer) Luke Lovell, or it could be various other guys, but we need to find a fourth safety,” Hauck said.

• Kicker/Punter/Returners The graduation of Snyder, who con nected on 70-of-105 career field goals and 182-of-187 PATs leaves an enormous void. Last season Snyder led the nation with 1.92 field goals (he made 25-of-30) a game. The good news is that punter Tyson Johnson (6-2,180) is just a sophomore and was a honorable mention all-conference pick last season when he averaged 41.4 yards which ranked him 15th in l-AA. “ I expect great com petition between Dan Carpenter and Paul Cahill in fall camp,” Hauck said. “ I am fully confident that one or both of those guys help us to fill the big shoes that Chris Snyder left.” Heidelberger was ranked sixth in the nation in kickoff returns averaging 28.6 yards on 22 attempts. Segars was 20th in the country in punt returns, averaging 12.2 yards on 42 returns, and brought two in for scores.

• Safety Sophomore Matt Lebsock (5-11, 190) became a starter as a true freshman at free safety when junior Tyler Thomas (6-0,190) was injured in the Cal Poly game. Lebsock will start at free safety, while Thomas was moved to strong safety and will start there. Lebsock (eight starts) and Thomas (five starts) are the Grizzlies’ third and seventh leading returning tacklers with 39 and 28 stops, respectively. Sophomore Van Cooper Jr. (6-2, 190) provides quality size and speed and will definitely be a factor at safety. Freshman Muckie Foreman (6-1, 185) could also add quality to the safety spot, depending on his recovery from an injury. “Tyler and Matt played a lot of football for us last year and played well at times and looked inexperienced at times,” Hauck said. “They both had great off-seasons. They are where they are supposed to be at all times, which is crucial at the safety posi

Q u o tin g C oach B o b b y H au ck: “We are proud of what Justin accom plished a year ago. He’s a big back, who gives us the ability to pound the football against our opponents. We are looking for a good year from him. He’s kind of unusual, in the fact that he’s a junior college player who came in and emerged as a team leader. That shows you what kind of person that he is. He’s very aggressive, and he’s physical, and he’ll do anything he can do to help the offense move the ball, which includes being a good blocker. I am sure defensive players get tired of tackling him.”

Q u o tin g C oach B o b b y H auck: “You’re always nervous playing a true freshman at any position, and Tyson came through for us last year. We were sixth in the nation in net punting (37.71 average), and a large part of that is attributed to how well he hit the ball last year. He had a very good off-season, and we look for him to continue his development. We expect him to have a big year for us.”

6-2 • 180 • Soph. • 1V Montana: Big things were expected from Tyson as a true freshman at Montana, and he delivered, earning honorable men tion All-Big Sky Conference honors.

That’s a big job because that is a young and fairly inexperi enced group, but he’s up to the task and relishing the role as the leader there. With Cory leading the charge, our offensive line is going to have a good season. Cory is a very good athlete for his size. He has the ability to be quick off the ball. He’s an aggressive run blocker and he has the athletic ability to pass protect on the edge against good pass rushers. The only thing he needs to do now is to play consistently week-in and week-out, and he’s very close to being there. This should be a break-out season for him.”

He’s always a threat to score when he has the ball, which can be attributed in a large part to his former play at running back. He had probably the best spring of any player on our team.”

Quoting Coach Bobby Hauck:

“ Lex has all of the tools to be a great player. He needs to con tinue his development, but he had an outstanding ‘true freshman’ year. He is a big, physical back. He’s got the best speed of any of our running backs. He’s got a chance to come in and battle for the starting job with Justin Green. Regardless of who the starter is at that position, we’re going to play two or three guys there. We don’t feel like there is any drop in talent whether Justin is the starter or Lex is the starter. In fact, Lex may give us another dimension with his speed. If he continues his devel opment, he’s got a chance to maybe be the best back ever here, or definitely one of the best.”

has to be one of our main guys this year. He suffered through a seasonending foot injury, which was too bad, and he had to have surgery on it. He was really coming along as a redshirt freshman and challenging for a starting position at the time he got hurt. He was going to play a lot of football for us. It’s great to have him back on his feet and out for spring practice. He just looks very, very good out there right now. He has excellent technique for a young guy. He has the ability to knock people off the football in the run and pass protect as well. He is very versatile because he can play guard or tackle.”

“ Blake struggled through various injuries last year, and it really hampered his play in a lot of games. We are looking forward to him being healthy and having a great season. He’s confident going into the season, and we are confident in his play. He’s a powerful guy, and he’s never been bigger or stronger than he is now.

BIG SKY TRADITION

The 2004-2005 athletic season marks the 42nd year of the Big Sky Conference and has solidified itself as one of the stron gest leagues in the West as well as the nation. With its roots established in 1963, the Big Sky Conference began with six charter members: The University of Idaho, Idaho State University, Gonzaga University, The University of Montana, Montana State Uni versity and Weber State University. On July 1,1970, the league experienced its first expansion, adding Boise State Uni versity and Northern Arizona University to the fold to create an eight-member league. On July 1, 1979, charter member Gonzaga left the league and was replaced by the University of Nevada. In 1987, Eastern Washington was admitted to the league to create the first version of a nine-member Big Sky Conference. The U niversity of Nevada’s departure in 1992 moved the league to eight members until July 1, 1996 when both Boise State and Idaho left the Big Sky, but the three additional institutions moved the league into a nine-member sce nario fo r the second tim e. Cal State Northridge entered the conference in 1996 and left it in the spring of 2001. The Big Sky conference sponsors cham pionships in 15 sports, including men’s and women’s cross country, golf, basketball, ten nis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, in addition to football, women’s volley ball and soccer. The Big Sky is a NCAA Divi sion I member in all sports, with member in stitutions classified as l-AA in football. The 2004-2005 athletic season marks the 16h year in which the Big Conference will sponsor cham pionships in wom en’s sports. Thirteen years ago the Big Sky Con ference merged with the Mountain West Athletic Conference, forming one league for both men’s and w om en’s athletics. The Mountain West had been in existence since 1982, s p o n s o rin g c h a m p io n s h ip s fo r women’s athletics at the same institutions the Big Sky had sponsored m en’s pro grams.

The eight Big Sky Conference member institutions are located in seven states that span from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountains and from the Canadian to the Mexican borders. The entire west coast is now represented by the Big Sky with mem bers in Washington, Oregon and Califor nia, and of the eight western-most states in the contiguous United States, only one (Nevada) does not contain a Big Sky mem ber. League members can be found in Ari zona, California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington and Utah.

The name BIG SKY originated in a novel written in 1947 by the late A.B. (Bud) Guthrie of Great Falls, Mont., entitled The Big Sky. Jack Hallowell, former Montana advertis ing director, promoted the Big Sky theme for the Treasure State, and Harry Missildine of the Spokane (Wash.) Spokesman-Review called for the newly formed league to be named “The Big Sky Conference” in his col umn dated Feb. 20, 1963. Five days later, on Feb. 25, the name Big Sky was adopted by the six presidents of the newly formed league. On July 1,1995, Doug Fullerton became the fifth commissioner of the Big Sky Con ference. Fullerton replaced longtime com missioner Ron Stephenson, who retired af ter 14 years in the position. The first com missioner of the Big Sky was Jack Friel, who served from the league’s inception until 1971. After Friel, John Roning directed the conference for six years until 1977 when Steve Belko assumed the commissioner’s role. Belko was with the league for five years.

ORONO, MAINE-First year head coach Bobby Hauck got his first win as head coach of the Grizzlies, as Montana used strong special teams play to post a 30-20 over Maine in the Grizzlies season opener. After the Black Bears got on the board first with a 36-yard field goal, Grizzly kickreturner Levander Segars returned the ensuing kick 91 yards for the game’s first touchdown, putting Montana up, 7-3. Junior quarterback Jeff Disney threw his first touchdown pass at Montana, hooking up with Jon Talmage on a 25-yard scoring strike. Disney also scored on an 8yard scramble. Talmage had three catches for 53 yards and a touch down. Senior safety Dave DeCoite returned a fumble four yards for a touchdown and made six tackles, leading a Grizzly defense that limited Maine to just 283 yards of total offense, including a meager 69 in the second half. Six different Grizzlies combined to sack Maine quarter back Ron Whitcomb five times on the evening.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - Four field goals by Chris Snyder carried the Grizzlies to a hard-fought 12-7 victory over Weber State in the Grizzlies Big Sky Conference opener at Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The Griz zlies were playing at home for the fifth straight week, but couldn’t get their offense on track, plagued by turnovers. Four times the Grizzlies turned it over - three fumbles by running backs and an interception by quarterback Craig Ochs, who was making his first start as a Grizzly. When the Grizzlies did hold onto the ball, they settled for Snyder field goals. Snyder connected on distances of 22,26,20 and 40 yards, tying a career-high. With its offense not playing well, Montana’s defense rose to the occasion, keeping Weber State out of the end zone until the closing seconds of the game. Montana held Weber State’s rushing attack to 78 yards; nearly 100 yards below what the Wildcats were averaging coming into the game. Joel Robinson, Brent Meyers and Dave DeCoite each registered seven tackles to lead the Griz defense. Robinson forced a fumble that Ciche Pitcher recovered for Montana. Tim Bush also recorded two sacks on the afternoon, which broke the Montana all-time record for career sacks with 39.5. Grizzly great Andy Petek held the old record of 39.

FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA - In what was hyped by many as the game of the year in the Big Sky Conference, the Grizzlies dominated from start to finish in handing Northern Arizona a 59-21 loss, NAU’s worst defeat in the history of the Walkup Dome. Junior returner Levander Segars returned NAU’s first punt of the game 60-yards for a touchdown, setting the tone. Segars returned another punt 54 yards for a touchdown, the first time in his UM career that Segars returned two punts for touchdowns. Junior receiver Jefferson Heidelberger caught his first career touchdown pass, hauling in a 44-yard toss from Ochs in the fourth quarter. Ochs was very efficient at quarterback, completing 18 passes to eight different receivers for 234 yards and a touch down. Ochs also scored his third rushing touchdown of the season in the third quarter, scoring on a 26-yard run to make the score 38-14. From there, Montana’s defense silenced any talks of a NAU comeback. Montana forced a NAU fumble on the Lumberjacks next possession and then Tim Bush sacked NAU quarterback Jason Murrietta on third and fourth downs, forcing NAU to turn the ball over. Another NAU fumble and a Chris Polhemus interception, the first of his Grizzly career, sealed the deal for Montana. Bush had a monster game, registering eight tackles, four sacks and a forced fumble. Three of Bush’s tackles were for a loss, giving Bush 47 for his career and breaking the Grizzly career record of 44, which was held by Andy Petek. Montana kicker Chris Snyder set the NCAA l-AA record for con secutive extra points made with his eight in the game, giving him 125 in a row. The old record was 121, set in 1991 by Brian Mitchell of Northern Iowa.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - Montana bounced back from its second de feat of the season, benefitting from a 22-point fourth quarter to defeat visiting Portland State 42-14. Two field goals from Chris Snyder got Montana on the board early, and after Portland State scored a touch down to grab the lead, Montana quickly took it back on quarterback Craig Ochs’ first rushing touchdown as a Grizzly. The junior signal caller scored from nine yards out. Then with 1:09 left in the first half, Ochs connected with Tate Hancock on a 10-yard scoring pass, mak ing the score 20-7 at the half. Montana broke a tight game open in the fourth quarter, scoring 22 unanswered points to pull away from what was a slight 20-14 advantage. Willie Walden caught a touchdown pass and halfbacks Justin Green and Lex Hilliard each found the end zone. Green, Hilliard and JR Waller combined for 37 rushes and 211 yards to go along with the two touchdowns. Griz safety Dave DeCoite had a team-high 12 tackles and 1-1/2 sacks to pace the Grizzly defense.

MISSOULA, MONTANA-Junior tailback Justin Green had one of the finest days ever for a Grizzly running back, as he rushed for 175 yards and four touchdowns as Montana beat Eastern Washington 41 -10 on “senior day.” Green’s four touchdowns tied the Montana single-game record - matching Yohance Humphery and Arnie Blancas. Green’s great game paced a Grizzly rushing attack that generated 365 yards and five touchdowns. Lex Hilliard gained 81 yards on 13 carries and freshman quarterback Kyle Samson carried the ball seven times for 48 yards and a touchdown. Craig Ochs had a difficult day at quarter back, going 7-16 for 106 yards and two interceptions with no touch downs. Willie Walden led the Grizzlies with 3 catches for 91 yards. Brent Meyers led the Grizzlies with eight tackles and Dave DeCoite had six tackles and three sacks. Kevin Edwards and Tyler Thomas each intercepted a pass for Montana.

WESTERN ILLINOIS MONTANA

BOZEMAN, MONTANA - The Bobcats beat the Grizzlies for the second year in a row, and en route won the Big Sky Conference’s automatic berth into the l-AA playoffs. The Griz dominated the first half with 193 total yards and 12 first downs, compared to the Cats’ 43 total yards and one first down, but MSU led 13-10 at the break on Corey Smith’s 90-yard kickoff return for a score and Kenneth Qualls’ 54-yard interception return for a TD. UM’s first-half scores came on a 1-yard run by Justin Green and a 38-yard field goal by Chris Snyder. MSU took a 27-10 lead with back-to-back 1-yard runs by Bruce Molock and Travis Lulay, Lulay’s rushing touchdown coming with 12:29 to go. A 32-yard field goal by Snyder and a 6-yard TD pass from Craig Ochs to Dane Oliver narrowed the MSU lead to 27-20 with 4:26 left, but MSU prevailed. The Griz out-gained the Cats 369 to 195 in total yards and 23 to 10 in first downs. MSU, Montana, and Northern Arizona all fin ished league play with 5-2 league records, but, for the second straight year, the Bobcats won the league’s tie-breaker, based on head-tohead competition, to earn the Big Sky’s automatic berth. Last season MSU, UM and Idaho State tied with 5-2 Big Sky records.

MISSOULA, MONTANA - For the first time this millennium the Griz did not play football in December, as they ended their season on a blocked 33-yard field goal attempt by Chris Snyder in the second overtime. It was UM’s third loss in 20 playoff games at Washington Grizzly Stadium. It was the Leathernecks’ first road playoff win. Montana set a Division l-AA record by making its 11th straight playoff appearance. The contest was a classic, as there were 18 scoring drives, six lead changes, and fourties. Eight different players scored touchdowns. The teams combined for nine field goals, 45 first downs, and 897 yards of offense. Necks’ Walter Payton Award candidate Russ Michna passed for 375 yards and two scores. Griz QB Craig Ochs completed 8-of-9 passes and rushed for a score, but he missed most of the fourth quarter and both overtimes due to injury. Snyder ended the game with a UM and Big Sky Conference records of394 points and 182 PATs.

NCAA Playoff History Montana Makes 11th Playoff Appearance in a Row In 2003 Montana broke the NCAA Divi sion l-AA record by making a record-break ing 11th consecutive playoff appearance. The Griz passed Eastern Kentucky for the record. The Griz went 9-4 overall in 2003 and finished in a three-way tie with Montana State and Northern Arizona for the Big Sky Conference title with a 5-2 record. UM and NAU both received at-large berths into the playoffs, while MSU earned an automatic berth via the league’s tie-breaker system. The Griz lost a heartbreaker in its firstround 2003 playoff game, 43-40 in double overtime, to visiting Western Illinois. UM’s 2003 three-way share of the Big Sky title was its eighth league champion ship in the past nine seasons. In the last 11 years, the Griz have won or shared nine league championships and finished second the two seasons they did not win the title. Montana has been a preeminent team early in the new millennium, advancing to the quarterfinals two years ago, winning the national title three seasons ago, and was the runner-up in 2000. The Griz have the most wins of any team from 2000-03 with 48. The past four sea sons UM has gone 48-10 (.828) overall and 25-4 (.862) in league. Over the past 11 sea sons Montana has been ranked in The Sports Network/CSTV’s top 25 for 153 of 157 weeks. The Grizzlies finished the 2003 season ranked 14th.

2002: Griz Tie l-AA Win Streak Record

2001 National Champions Montana won its second l-AA national championship in 2001 thanks to a gritty

1995 Trophy (Head Coach Don Read)

14 Trips to the Playoffs

In 2002, the Grizzlies started the sea son with 10 consecutive victories. Along with UM’s 10-game win streak it racked up 24 straight victories in a row. The win streak started at home in a 3-0 win over Western Washington in 2001. It ended with a 30-21 loss at Eastern Washington on November 16,2002 in Spokane, Wash. The Griz tied Pennsylvania, which had 24 victo ries in a row from 1992-95, for the record. UM also set the record for most consecu tive Big Sky wins with 25 and the record for most league road wins in a row with 13. Both of those win streaks started in 1999. The G rizzlies have won 10 or more games seven times in the past 11 seasons, dating back to 1993. Those double digit victorious seasons are: 10-2 in 1993; 11-4 in 1994; 13-2 in 1995; 14-1 in 1996; 13-2 in 2000; 14-1 in 2001; and 11-3 in 2002.

performance by quarterback John Edwards, the running of Yohance Humphery, and a Herculean defensive effort, as the Griz de feated Furman University 13-6 in Chatta nooga, Tennessee. Edwards engineered a 16-play, 99-yard scoring drive for UM’s only touchdown in the title game. Hum phery gained 142 yards on 30 carries and scored on a twoyard run. The Griz defense limited the Pala dins to 121 yards rushing (124 under their season average), and star halfback Louis Ivory gained just 33 yards on 12 carries. UM’s defense forced three turnovers, and Furman’s sole score came on a Hail Mary pass as time expired. In 2001, the Griz amassed a schoolrecord 15 wins, going 15-1 overall and a perfect 7-0 in the Big Sky. Head coach Joe Glenn compiled a threeyear record of 39-6 from 2000-02 before leaving Montana to become the mentor at Wyoming. Montana began the 2001 season ranked second in the nation by The Sports Net work and then moved up to first nine weeks into the season. They ended up as the topranked team after beating Furman and se curing the national crown. M ontana’s No. 1 ranking in the final 2001 poll was the second time the Griz zlies finished in the top spot. UM also fin ished first in 1995 in The Sports Network’s final poll, following its national title over Marshall.

The playoffs, w hich now include 16 teams, began in 1978, At that time four teams competed in the playoffs. In 1981 they expanded to eight teams. Six years later, in 1986, the division adopted its cur rent 16-team format. Montana has now participated in 14 of IAA’s 26 tournaments. Those 14 playoff appearances rank the Grizzlies second in division history. The all-time leader is East ern Kentucky with 17 playoff berths. The Griz (13-2) advanced to the cham pionship game for the third time in school history in 2000, playing Georgia Southern in Chattanooga, Tenn., losing 27-25. In that 2000 ch am pionship contest, starting Griz quarterback Drew Miller was injured late in the first quarter, and Edwards, a sophomore at the time, was forced into action. After trailing 20-3 at halftime in a rainsoaked Finley Stadium, the Griz took a 2320 lead early in the fourth quarter on a short run by the record-setting Humphery. How ever, that lead was short-lived as halfback

NCAA Playoff History > > > C o n tin u ed from page 91 Adrian Peterson broke loose for a 57-yard touchdown on GU’s first play from scrim mage after Humphery’s TD run, and held off UM for the win. In 1999, Montana made its seventh consecutive appearance in the playoffs which was a Big Sky record. The old mark of six straight was set by former confer ence member Idaho from 1985-90. The Griz’ 14 playoffs berths broke the old mark of 11 playoff berths, which was also held by Idaho.

First Round Woes Montana suffered through a brief win ning drought in the playoffs from 1997-99. The Griz hosted Youngstown State in a first-round playoff game in 1999, losing 30-27 on a last-second field goal. About a week after that YSU loss, Griz head coach Mick Dennehy left to become the mentor at Utah State. A couple of weeks after Denney’s departure, Glenn le ft N o rth e rn C o lo ra d o to becom e Montana’s 32nd head coach. In 1998 Montana suffered its worst playoff loss in history, losing 52-9 at West ern Illinois. In 1997 McNeese State revenged a 1994 playoff loss (30-28) at Montana, the host Cowboys edging the Griz 19-14 in the closing minutes of a first-round game.

Runners-Up in 1996 A ll-A m e rica n q u a rte rb a c k Dave Dickenson had graduated; popular 10year head coach Don Read had retired; and the Griz faithful were worried about the future of their beloved program. There was no letdown in 1996 though, as Mon tana reeled 14 straight wins to advance to the title game, and like the year before, the opponent was Marshall. But this time around, Division l-A transfers Eric Kresser and Randy Moss were too much for the Griz defense, as the host Herd cruised to a 49-29 victory. That 1996 showdown was between l-AA’s two top-ranked teams, and it was the first time in playoff history that two undefeated (14-0) teams squared off for the l-AA crown. In the losing effort at Marshall, Griz quarterback Brian Ah Yat set l-AA records for pass completions (36) and total plays (67) and Joe Douglass set a record for receptions with 13.

Dickenson and the Griz defense were infallible, as “ Dicky” passed for 1,219 yards and 11 touchdowns en route to winning their first three playoff games, out-scoring their opponents 163-14. In the title game, Dickenson orches trated a 12-play, 72-yard scoring drive, cul minating with a 25-yard field goal by Andy Larson with 39 seconds remaining. The key play in the winning drive came on a fourth-and-three from the 50-yard line, as Dickenson hit Mike Erhardt on a short slant pass for a 20-yard gain. Senior receiver Matt Wells had both of UM’s two touch downs in the game. The Griz set playoff records for first downs (125), pass comple tions (137), pass attempts (197) and pass ing yards (1,703).

Pre-1995 UM suffered a last-second 49-48 firstround home loss to Delaware in 1993. The next year the Griz squeaked by Northern Iowa 23-20 in a first-round contest, and then edged by visiting McNeese State 30-28 in a snow storm on a game-ending field goal by Larson. Unfortunately, Dickenson was injured early in that McNeese win and he was unable to play in the semifinal game, which was a 28-9 loss at Youngstown State, but a year later Montana garnered its firstever national title.

One of the 90’s Elite Teams The Grizzlies had a record of 93-32 in the 90s, and their 74.4% was the third best winning percentage of the decade. Dayton led the way at 84.4% (92-17). UM’s initial playoff berth came just five years after the playoff system began, in 1982. The Griz lost that one at Idaho, 21-7, while the second loss did not come until six years later (1988) with a 38-19 loss, once again at Idaho.

UM’s third ever trip to the playoffs was in 1989. That was a breakout year, as the Griz hosted a playoff game for the first time in school history and defeated Jackson State 48-7, advancing past the first round for the first time. Montana then beat visit ing Eastern Illinois 25-19 in a quarterfinal game but were out-manned in a 45-15 set back to eventual national champion Geor gia S o uthe rn in a s e m ifin a l gam e in Statesboro a week later.

Washington Grizzly Stadium The Home of the Grizzlies The University of Montana Grizzlies have been playing in Washington Grizzly Sta dium/John Hoyt Field since the mid-way point of the 1986 season, and since that time the Griz have racked up an impressive 110-16 record. In 2003, Montana was ranked second in the nation among Division l-AA schools, averaging a school-record 22,469 in eight home games in expanded Washington-Griz zly Stadium. With 23,687 in attendance at last year’s Homecoming contest against Cal Poly, the Grizzlies broke their old record of 19,879, set in 2002 in the 102nd Grizzly-Bobcat game. Of Montana’s eight home contests last season, seven of them rank in the top for all-time attendance in Washington Grizzly Stadium. Montana went undefeated at home in 1994, 1995, and 1996, and reeled off 30 straight victories. The win streak started with a 41 -7 win over Sonoma State on Sept. 3, 1994 and ended on a 40-35 setback to Eastern Washington on October 18 of 1997. That win skein is the fifth longest home win ning streak in l-AA history. The first game played in the stadium was on October 18,1986, the Grizzlies register ing a 38-31 come-from-behind win over Idaho State.

The Dream Comes True The long-time dream of an on-campus football facility was initiated in August of 1985, as Missoula businessman Dennis R. Washington and the employees of Wash ington Corporations provided a gift of $1 million. In December of 1985, excavation crews began work. In recognition of the gift by Washington and his company, UM’s new facility was named Washington Grizzly Sta dium. The playing surface is about 20 feet be low ground level. The field area inside the stadium is 182 feet wide by 402 feet from end-to-end. There are 48 private boxes located on the east and west sides of the stadium. They are individually decorated and furnished by their respective owners. The press box located above the private boxes on the west side was built by the Missoula Homebuilders Association, prima rily with volunteer labor.

The stadium was first expanded in the spring of 1995 with end zone seating on both the north and south sides. A few m ore a d d itio n a l seats were added in 2002, bringing the capacity to 19,005. Prior to the 1995 expansion there were 12,500 perm anent seats. When grass end zone seating was available, the capacity was approximately 15,000. For the 2002 season, GrizVision was added, featuring a state of the art mes sage center which features game statis tics, player profiles, digital replays, and shots of the crowd. The GrizVision screen is the largest in Division l-AA, measuring 26 feet by 36 feet and was brought in from Times Square in New York City. The natural-grass stadium gave way to SprinTurf for the 2001 season. A million dollars was given by an anonymous do nor for the new playing surface. The field was also named ‘John Hoyt Field” that year at the request of the anonymous do nor, in honor of a long-time Grizzly booster. New men’s locker rooms, cover more than 4,000 square feet, housing football, basketball, track and cross country were also added and are located below the entry level on the west side of the sta dium. When Adams Center, which is adjacent to the stadium, was renovated in 1999, a new 7,000 square foot weight room, a 4,500 square foot athletic treatment cen ter, the Jacobson Academic Center, and a meeting room with big screen videos were added. In addition, a new women’s locker room covering 4,000 square feet, a 3,200 square foot equipment center, and three new meeting rooms totaling 2,000 square feet were added.

Stadium Expansions The facility underwent its second expan sion in the spring and summer of 2003, as approximately 4,000 seats were added on to the north end zone section of Washing ton Grizzly Stadium, which increased the capacity to its current 23,117.

UM MASCOT

Although the Grizzly mascot’s features might

From a real bear in the 1940s to a national champion in 2003, the Montana Grizzlies have had this namesake since 1912 when a Salt Lake City sportswriter called the Montana football team the “Grizzlies” when they played a Utah team. UM teams were called “Grizzlies,” “Bruins” or B ea rs” u n til the 1920s w hen the nam e “Grizzly” stuck. They were sometimes referred to as the “Silvertips” all the way through the 1970s.
