If Montana Grizzly quarterback Jordan Johnson had a sprained ankle, here's hoping he has two of them next week! The Griz senior totaled nearly 400 yards of offense, including three touchdown passes as the Montana Grizzlies crushed their instate rival MSU Bobcats 34-7 in Washington Grizzly Stadium Saturday. Senior running back Jordan Canada chipped in 119 rushing yards and a couple of TDs.

But it was the Griz defense that really stole the show. And the ball. Again and again and again. The Griz forced 7 Bobcat turnovers, including 5 interceptions of junior quarterback Jake Bleskin, who clearly was not ready to step in as the starter on such a big stage. Montana safety Matt Hermansson had three of the picks and was named Griz Player of the Game.

See you in the playoffs, Griz fans. Here's hoping there are more home games this season. We'll know Sunday morning at 9:00 with the ESPNU FCS Selection Show.
