Montana Football Extends Undefeated Streak to 9-0 With Dominant Win Over Weber State

The Montana Grizzlies football team continued their undefeated season with a commanding 38-17 victory over Weber State in Ogden, Utah, extending their record to 9-0. Quarterback Keali'i Ah Yat was instrumental, throwing for nearly 300 yards and two touchdowns, including a notable 62-yard touchdown pass, while running back Eli Gillman added 122 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Montana's defense set the tone early by forcing a fumble on the first play, helping the Grizzlies build a 21-0 lead in the first quarter and maintain control throughout the game. Despite injuries and challenges, Weber State struggled to keep pace, with their coach citing defensive lapses and big plays allowed early on as critical issues. Meanwhile, Northern Colorado suffered a heavy defeat against nationally ranked Montana State, losing 55-7, marking the worst loss under coach Ed Lamb, who emphasized the need for his team to prepare harder for upcoming challenges. Montana’s football success contrasts with Northern Colorado's rough outing but both teams look to regroup as the season progresses.
