Montana State is only a few days removed from a 45-10 shellacking at Texas Tech. And the Bobcats only have a few more to prepare for their crucial home opener.
The No. 13-ranked Bobcats will face No. 12 Southeast Missouri at 6 p.m. Saturday at Bobcat Stadium in MSU’s annual Gold Rush game.
Season projection
MSU head coach Jeff Choate noted Monday how energized his team was while practicing for their home opener. And based on FCS teams MSU scheduled in 2019, a recovery from this game could be vital.
The Bobcats started last season with a 26-23 victory over Western Illinois, a predictably close game but the Bobcats made key plays in the second half to secure the win.
