Just watched The university of Montana defeat North Dakota State on the next to last play of the game for a mild upset.
I remember when Aztec Games were that exciting. The Griz had a sellout. The Aztecs could regularly put more than 40K in the stands. An improbable late game comeback by the Griz. The Aztec used to do that kind of thing repeatedly. We used to blow big time teams out! I am looking forward to this season as a measure of our continued progress back to glory.
Go Aztecs! Come on Aztec Fans, fill up the Q.

Great game, and great setting minus that wicked smoke. Am a little surprised they didn't postpone.

What a great game, what a great atmosphere. That's what each Aztec home game could/will be like in a smaller venue instead of the cavernous Q. That place was loud & rocking, a true home field advantage with just 26,000.

I used to live in Missoula. Great game day atmosphere. The tickets for today's game were probably $60 face for the cheapest seats. Have a small intimate stadium makes the value of each seat worth more. I do think SDSU could have a stadium like this but with no more than 40,000 seats. Would be great.

Since we whupped 'em back in 1966 they have won far too often! But, I must say that Montana must have the ugliest uniforms in football.

It was a Jim Sweeney led Montana State team. That was the game that got me interested in Aztec Football. The Bobcats had a much bigger stronger and faster team than SDSU. The Aztecs outplayed and out gutted them. I became a fan of Aztec Football because of that game.

North Dakota State was ranked #1 and we were #2. We beat them 36-0 in a sold out Balboa Stadium in one of the most perfectly played Aztec games I've ever seen. North Dakota State continues to have a great winning tradition to this day.

They actually look pretty good. But I can understand someone not liking them, but the worst in football? Not liking Montana getting some recognition on this board, so you are trying to find a way to shoot them down? lol. There are probably several dozens of teams with worse uniforms.

Do you mean 3.2 beer at premium prices? Premium? No, as illustrated. Assuming you meant cheap swill at near giveaway prices that pretty much befits the situation when I was a student. Which is to say Brown Derby or whatever was on sale for a couple bucks a sixer which we then placed in empty plastic milk jugs they let us carry in. It's just amazing how many more students will not just leave the parking lot but hang around inside the stadium to watch the whole game under those circumstances. (Correct me if I'm wrong but they don't even allow you to exit the Q and then return these days.)

Look like a dirty maroon to me. Awful.

We are 3-0 vs Montana St with last meeting in 1968. Never played the Griz. Bet they'd like to come here though. I didn't dislike their colors at all but the presentation was dingy. Nothing wrong with maroon and grey . But Wyoming 's colors??? Oh my!

I was talking about our win against North Dakota State in 1966. I was talking about our 1966 Bowl Game win against Montana State. It was one of those days where we (The Aztecs) beat a much better team. In those days "we" would have meant The Bobcats or the Griz.
