Game outlook

Montana is on the road playing North Dakota St. at the Scheels Center stadium on Saturday, 12/10/2022 @ 8:00pm EST. Montana -1 was the opening favorite and current line is North Dakota St. 0.

As the Montana basketball team enters the final stretch of the non-conference season, the Grizzlies have momentum after their biggest win of the season, and the return of their starting backcourt.

There is some optimism in Montana's squad

Montana faces a Bison team that has struggled so far this season. They are one of only three teams Montana has faced with a losing record on the year. They do come in fresh off a victory over Portland, a positive result against a 7-4 opponent. The north will hinder the turn around

In addition to this, it will be NDSU's third home game of the season after six road games and two neutral site games to start the year. A team that finished second in the Summit League last season shouldn't be judged solely on its record. Several key players had season-best performances for the Griz against South Dakota State. Brandon Whitney scored 23 points, Dischon Thomas scored 17 points, and Aanen Moody scored 20 points. The lead grew from 9-2 to 35 points as the game wore on, with Montana leading by as many as 35 points at one point. In the first five minutes, the Griz started all five players healthy and together for the first time since the Merrimack game at Zootown. With only a couple of non-conference games left, they can get back to .500
