Apparently SFA shredded their defense.

Wow, well I guess Montana state is 4th best and we are third now with sfa at 2nd. So sad.

Oh Noes!!! There goes that Montana St argument. (MSU's QB was out-but he doesn't play defense either)

That is what I was thinking. The MSU defense was intact.

Backup QB threw 4 INTs

They gave up 567 yards too to SFA

Montana State relied on their pass a bit more vs. SFA than they did vs. SMU (due to QB not being as mobile?) and outgained their SMU mark but their INTs and their inability to play defense vs. the run cost them
