MSU, Aggies get together for third straight season
Montana State hosts red-hot UC Davis Saturday in a showdown pitting two of the Big Sky's six three-win teams. After dropping their first three games of 2013 under first-year coach Ron Gould, the Aggies have won three of their last four to join a six-team logjam at the top of the league standings. Veteran signal caller Randy Wright leads an efficient UCD offense which features Gabe Manzanares' 101.6 rushing yards per game, while the Aggies defense has limited five of its foes to 21 points or less.
