Montana Grizzlies Football Dominates Sacramento State in Thrilling Road Victory

Undefeated Grizzlies Surge to 8-0 with Standout Performances and Special Teams Magic

In a high-stakes clash under the Friday night lights, the Montana Grizzlies football team showcased their unbeatable spirit against Sacramento State.

They claimed a convincing 49-35 win, pushing their record to a perfect 8-0 overall and 4-0 in the Big Sky Conference.

This triumph marked their first victory in California's capital since 2013, ending the series on a high note as the Hornets prepare to exit the conference.

Standout player Michael Wortham delivered a hat-trick of touchdowns, piling up 238 all-purpose yards and leading in both rushing and receiving.

Quarterback Keali'i Ah Yat battled through pressure, throwing for 196 yards and three scores on 16 completions out of 24 attempts.

The Grizzlies dominated on the ground with 161 yards, while their defense rattled the Hornets with six sacks and ten tackles for loss.

Special teams flipped the script, capitalizing on a muffed punt and a clever fake punt pass that sparked crucial drives.

Coach Bobby Hauck praised the squad's toughness, noting the game felt more lopsided than the final score suggested.

Local fans in Missoula are buzzing as the team eyes a road trip to Weber State next, building momentum in this historic 2025 season.

With eight home games scheduled this year at Washington-Grizzly Stadium, excitement is mounting for continued dominance.

The Grizzlies' blend of offensive firepower and defensive grit has them positioned as top contenders in FCS football.
