re: Lightning in Montana

I firmly believe that Montana could make the jump to the FBS level in a conference like the MWC for many reasons. First they have a solid football program, they have a distinct home field advantage, and finally because the have a great following. Universities at the FCS level like Montana and Delaware bare a states name and that makes a big difference when it comes to fan support and financial support. I also believe that Montana possesses a marketable look. Their helmets are pretty cool and you know how recruits love that stuff. If Boise St can do it, a program like Montana could do it! Id play at a stadium with a setting and view at "The Mouth of Hell Gate Canyon" like Wa-Grizz Stadium! I remember that Montana vs Appalachian St goal line stand and how awesome the atmosphere was.
