A look at today's big-time Big Sky showdown between the Bobcats and Wildcats
The injury news is again mixed in the hours leading to MSU's gigantic showdown with Weber State. Arnold Briggs and Jordan Craney are full go, and Clay Bignell made tremendous progress during the week. Aleksei Grosulak will start in the middle, with either Roger Trammell or Michael Rider alongside, but Bignell is slated to play early.
The bad news came to a pair of linemen. Defensive end Dustin O'Connell's injured shoulder is not quite ready, and he will not play. Offensive guard Casey Dennehy did not get cleared from his concussion 10 days ago, and he will not play. The team's lineup in each line remains unchanged from last week.

The average temperature at kickoff for Montana State's first five home games was 65.6 degrees, with no other severe weather factors (wind, precipitation, etc.). The forecast for today's game is 65 degrees with only light winds and no precipitation.

Montana State has played two overtime games this season, winning both in single overtime. Nonetheless, Weber State – which has participated in just one overtime game in 2010 – has played twice as many overtime periods as the Bobcats. The Wildcats won a 50-47 thriller against Northern Colorado in four overtimes.

Bobcat kicker Jason Cunningham is sitting on 45 career field goals. His next successful kick breaks his tie for first with Mark Carter for most field goals in Bobcat history.
