20 24 football season here at Montana none other than Missoula where it's the Montana Grizzlies ranked third in the nation hosting the Missouri State Bears it's an all Brewing event tonight the Grizzlies and the Bears will be witnessing a little bit of History tonight it's he's been nursing a couple of injuries let's see if he plays at all and then how much tonight Xavier Harris and Isaiah Childs back deep for the Grizz three yards Deep In The End Zone out with the football and he's still on his feet that's Isaiah Childs out across the 25 to the 26 yd line decent return nice run and they are uh good on defense and here comes aot he got Hammer but he got the pass away it's complete good for a first down Montana with the ball across the 38 yd line out near the 40 oh the defense that was Taj Chambers with the tackle for that on that first down and here's the pass to Gilman in the backfield breaks the tackle makes a move and a penalty flag flies it might have been a face mask yeah look like a face maskk now there's another quick 16th year as a head coach looking to get his team back to the FCS title game as they did last year pass by aot intended out of bound let's see if the Grizzlies defensive line comes with their ears Pinn to put some pressure on Clark back he goes quick out complete Jamaria Robinson the one of the top punters in FCS they almost got a piece of it drew deck catches on the Fly and drops the ball gets it back and it's recovered it looks like by the Bears well a turnover right away Marty deck tried to catch that on the fly a couple of times as well it was a great effort going to field the ball he just needs to secure first before he runs with the ball there and state so here's Jacob Clark looking at second and 15 out of the backfield jardier right this is one of his top plays and touchdown saving tackle perhaps on that run up the noise here inside wer is Clark getting some pressure had to unload it and the penalty flag flies that was Hunter wood locked up with the corner and the flags came in fluence down in the Red Zone Clark gives it to rright and he has it up for the first down across the nine down to the eight maybe the seven and A2 yd line bring dial up here we'll see give to right up the middle he's going to go pretty much untouched and that's a touchdown Missouri State draws first blood that was full Blitz by the Montana Grizz defense center with the football we can see see why the coaching staff at Missouri state was so complimentary of jardier Wright the can here for the Bears and the kick is up and good Yousef Obie to transfer from Michigan State fan zone or if you want to email them to fanzone scripts.com sponsored by the marsh M Kinnon agency and here goes aot on a big run across the 40 slides down right at Midfield we'll be sharing some of those ayot giving the Back Field to Gilman trying to break that last shooring tackle and cannot stop for no game another penalty flag flies not like me personal foul against the Bears let's check it out personal foul number 10 of the defense unnecessary roughness 15yd penalty first down that's on the safety Dylan Simmons range high scoring range I should say Gilman in the backfield he'll get the the rock breaks it out to the outside breaks the tackle he's on the loose at the 20 10 Eli Gilman touchdown Montana 37y yd scamer that was a lot of Gilman there there was that was Gilman's 14th career touchdown as a Grizzly he had 13 of those touchdowns last year when he won the Jerry Rice award as the national freshman of the year that's a little jump cut against young the line backer por to this plan for Missouri State uhoh Grant Glasco misses the extra point car's off the upper point after last year he was 19 of 20 misses his first one here that's the difference in the game 7 to six Jacob Clark back for the pass has his man good for a first down across the 35 to the 36 yd line basic route combination a guy of his caliber as one of these many returning starters guys thanks for the update Kyle there goes wood in motion to give him the backfield jardi right again penalty flag flies and right is loose on the sidelines and he's going to go in for the score what a run but we have a penalty flag let's check it out first it looked like offensive holy no matter what happened inside and nice stand corrected it's Jaden beex made that run not jardier right yeny there remains first down so the Grizz defense saved by the in early penalties which you'd expect in the opening game of the season here's another look at it yeah he got his left hand on number 99 for the Grizzlies uh Pat Hayden nice job by Hayden forcing the holding call on Missouri State's Right Guard that negates that coach Bobby patrino before taking over the Reigns a year ago clar back has all kinds of time across the middle complete out good for first down this defense of their gri Grizzly's on right now Jacob Clark's kind of had his way with it some pressure flushed out of the pocket across the middle Oh What A Catch nice job that's jier [Music] Robinson CL incomplete intended out there Airborne Michigan played for Michigan State but didn't see any action last year came in through the trans for portal and he splits the [Applause] upright good to see Dante looking good Nick osmo has reeled off a couple of good runs for Montana and has the first down and here comes aot he was going to run finds his man open breaks the tackle and gets out for the first down that's Nick osmo coming out of the back field G's First Carry from rocker Jun I love it got a good gain of about six yards he's in the back field again will he get it again oh it's uh faked by ayot he faked me out faked all the Defenders at the same time nice another good decision by 26 to 10 Edge in the plays run until this possession now Montana's clipped off three straight first downs here's the run osmo across the 35 the Grizz leaning on Oso Lan that brings up a second down for Montana oh kind of a scramble setup ayot in trouble now he's running off to his left needs a block crosses the 30 the crowd senses he has lots of Running Room out of bounds inside the 20 what kind of a trouble with the snap picks it up throws it finds his man oh in and out of the hands tended to run before he had it collared Aaron font this will be about [Music] but a 35 yd field goal and it's good yard gain jardier only two yards he's been having his way with it and here's another complete pass Jacob Clark is really On Target here I'll tell you that was a Jacob Clark changing the call at the line of scrimmage third down and eight has some time across the middle intercepted intercepted by Montana Ryder Meyer [Music] safety Downs a year ago over 600 yards receiving here's third and 10 Grizzlies 0 for two on third down aot in trouble and he's going to be sacked back inside the 15 yd line yeah I out went back door right into a Looper about that he going to go in at halftime he needs his defense to stop this Missouri State uh and then he's going to go in and make some corrections at halftime I guarantee you Clark with a good job getting rid of it cardier right out of the backfield has it inside Grizzly territory big third down wi 156 left to go till halftime Jacob Clark drops back gets plenty of time monana hasn't been able to put much pressure now he's going to run throws it incomplete he had some room to run he left he aat stats for the game four of 10 in passing only 23 yds he also has another 26 yds rushing here he is back to pass in the pocket finds a at in coverage that's complete and that's Aaron Fon he held on to that one the they're on the ball in two-minute type of tempo here 15 yd gain on the pass from aat def font aat throws again this is to Keelan white complete inside bear territory at the 49 beautiful his first half minute six second down off to Missouri State 49 iot takes off running bre like he's going down then he doesn't cross the 40 that's a Moxy three of these timeouts back to back to back aot dropping straight back in the pocket cross the middle has his man Ryan Simpson I believe that is out of bosan nice catch Ryan Simpson that again was another Offensive Coordinator Brent peas has it in mind aot drops back throwing across the middle has this man inside the five time out zavor Harris passes in a row here Nick osmo in the back field gets the block ayat looking for some help throws it away good throw away so nobody hurt there still have 9 seconds still have one timeout you may end up getting all three plays now let's see they're in the Red Zone again how this turns out ayat a little trick play gives it to Oso in the back field bounces out timeout see now they're they're only with 4 seconds left there all right TI Morrison in to try the extra point or the field goal excuse me it'll be a 23 Y kick is up and the kick is good and the Grizzlies grab the lead as the last seconds tick off here at halftime his team just kind of buckled down in limit explosive plays that's obviously helped the Grizz kind of down the stretch he said he wants to see them move the ball and he also shout out of his bench guys as we talked about and the crowd is trying to get the noise back to the normal level but a lot of people go out it jardier right breaking a tackle out across the 40 we'll show you some of our favorite photos a little bit later in the game here it is Big third and 19 Grizzlies bring all kinds of pressure right out of the backfield has all kinds of Running Room touchdown saving tackle at the 35 yd line last play brings up first and 10 here goes Jaden Becks loose inside the 10 and into the end zone touchdown for the Bears Jaden Becks out of the back field and boy that he have a wall of blockers up front great vision the play was designed as an inside Zone by the grizzly defense watch this cuts it back to the left Boop they lost contain uh they over the Grizzlies overran it just a little bit nice job again into the end zone jadden backs with a 32 yd touchdown run to give the Bears the lead youf obid adds the extra point third and 25 you could see the concern there on head coach Bobby ha face give they're going to just run this ball and try to punt it out of their own lines it's had an excellent game so far 16 of 27 in the passing Department back to pass still has it being chased out of there is he going to run it no he's going out of bounds and he's going to be short of the line to gain interceptions most of that coming at Fresno State Logan says his favorite athlete is Russell Wilson he likes how humble he is as a silent leader here's a pass from fight wide open caught Xavier Harris and that'll be a first down for Montana out near the Midfield strip yeah beautiful beautiful touch pass two backs in the back field now fight fakes the hand out rolls to his right up across the 50 he likes to run it and he's into bare territory down to the 48 yard for that out of bounds f with the quick pass out to to a Aaron FS offensive lineman tonight p and they still have looked quite calm and collected especially their quarterback Jacob Clark back deep looking to gets out of the pressure completes the pass out to the 20 to hunterwood hunterwood looked like he was covered but slipped out of there and let's see what Roger Cooper the Montana defense four of nine on third down Clarks in trouble he's going to go down back at the 20 second sack second and seven after the three- yd game Gilman in the back field will get the hand off again quick feet and he keeps churning those legs Eli Gilman this interference so Missouri State got away with one right there Jay big third down here fight's going to keep it near first down yardage goes out of bounds let's see where they Spot It third Nick osmo in the back field now fight throws it out to Xavier Harris who's wide open breaks a tackle Alo on the sidelines did he get in did he get the pylon no signal yet he's in touchdown Montana Grizzlies that was an RP check it out on the opportunity Bank replay there it is pulls it out Xavier is set if not enough Defenders out there to stop that and a great job by Harris to break that tackle and he got in nail here's Tai Morrison adds the extra point in Montana Nick patrino the offensive coordinator has up his sleeve takes the snap looking has room to run and across the middle complete so once again on third 16 they complete all right Jacob Clark has jardier right off to his right hit is's going to fake the hand off and now finds Hunter wood with a complete pass across the 50 Kyle little Blitz package for the Grizzlies Clark looking and he's run out of bounds short of the line the game near the 42 yd line sub it here come the Grizz Blitz they kick back out of it Rush four good defense Trevon gradney stepped in in front of hunterwood don't throw the [Applause] ball fight going again for Fons Grizzly fans wanted the the flag and they got it yard line Missouri State scrambling to get enough Personnel on the field osmo runs it up the middle sto for one yd game and another penalty flag I'm not sure they might have had too many men on the field might looked like Gilman I think he's in yeah touchdown Montana three backs in the back field double lead down on the goal line against a Missouri State deep yard line with about 10 minutes and 50 seconds left to go the grid Le capitalized on stopping them on Fourth and seven Gilman pays it off leaping over the line for the score Ty Morrison adds the extra to get uh at least a field goal if not a touchdown on this drive to get back in this game good shot there nose guard Pat Hayden for the Grizzlies here's the run up the middle for Missouri State and they enough for the first down and Coach Ryan be you saw them on the sideline in his second year as the the head coach at Missouri State prior to that he was the defensive coordinator back to pass Clark has a wide open Hunter wood gets out of one tackle but not the second but it's good for another first down but the field here is down in a little bow here's jakier right getting out of traffic still on his feet boy he is quick you can see while jardier is on the watch list for the senior ball quite an honor to wear number 37 second long here let's see what Nick patrino has in mind for his offense pressure Clark going deep again for Devonte key he got a hand on it we're checking the penalty here Ronald Jackson great coverage oh they roughed the pass with the Montana Grizz big big penalty keeping the drive Al five comes now overload Blitz he had one extra Ryder Meyer goes High see if they can convert again it's loud out of the backfield Miss tackle jardier right oh what a job and a second effort as he goes down the sideline Grizzly nine-point lead false start false start again and the crowd's going to two for two so far let's see what they call up here now stuck in the back field but look at jardier right he had three guys trying to tackle him and not one of them could get him down all right second and goal little trick play and around nice move ke for jarier Robinson coming around the corner and gets into the end zone and that's a touchdown for Missouri State nice play call Marty yeah Robin obid trying the extra point it's right down the middle Missouri State now just two points behind clock on the on the game clock and it's down to 4 seconds right now and they get it off it give is to Gilman Gilman is churning those legs up near the first down marker I believe he has enough where they're spotting it there right at the right at the 45 excellent 4minute offense holding up to the HomeField Advantage by the Grizzlies until now dead ball play unsort for like cond number 95 of the defense the play off the Jaylen williamsa there's Jaylen right there not feeling good about that they here's another play it's pulling the player off of the pile is what they said and that's what he did should be snapping the ball here right at about the 230 Mark monana continuing gives us the Gilman again up the middle cuts to the outside gets to the open down inside the 20 make sure not to go out of bounds and down around the 21 stop the clock and give Missouri State a timeout left on the board a reed little Reed uh Logan kept it that time little read option he was reading the n man online of scrimmage Eder Meyer is the holder the junior puts his foot into it and it's good judging by the fans reaction clutch 37 yd field goal failed to switch it off seven yard loss Clark back now he's going to get hit again in the back field down he goes took a big hit at the end great call to 15 fourth and 15 they converted fourth Downs all game Clark running running running and he's hit and he took a shot there way short of the first [Applause] down well I hope people kept their youngsters up for this one that was a heck of a ball game Victory formation there's the handshake Ryan beard and Bobby ha Midfield I'll tell you what Missouri state has nothing to hang their head about they came in here and played a whale of a game coach beard and this team should be proud
