MONTANA STATE (1-5/0-0) vs. Wisconsin-Green Bay (4-2/0-0)
Montana State’s rigorous early season schedule gets no easier this week, when perennial power Wisconsin-Green Bay visits Worthington Arena Saturday. The Phoenix are off to a 4-2 start, with their losses coming at Wisconsin and Michigan State, and they beat Weber State by 20 points (82-62) earlier this month. Newcomers Marvin Moss and Branden Miller have led the ‘Cats, and redshirt freshman Casey Durham has added scoring punch from the outside.
