Been a long time since I visited this site. I just wanted to wish you guys well and hope the season turns out great. I myself have a lot of respect for your fans and your program and miss the fact that we cannot play each other anymore. I usually follow your season progress and noticed that you have had some nice seasons in FBS. A quick question, how has the transition been going in FBS? Are you guys happy that you moved up?

Thanks for the love Griz! I know I speak for a lot of us on here about how much we respect your program as well. I have always admired what you guys have done out there. I would say for us, it would be hard to find people that aren't happy about us moving up anymore. At first, it was a bit of a struggle getting people on board. But 4 straight bowl wins and 3 conference championships will do wonders for morale. Best of luck to you guys this year!

The only thing I miss about the FCS is Montana. Thanks for the well wishes and hope to see y’all on the field in the future.

I think our transition has been about as good as one could wish for to date. Four bowls and four wins and a couple of conference championships (including the first SBC championship game). I'm sure there are still some who long for the FCS days but I think most think it was the right decision.

Good luck to the Griz in 2019!

In addition to the three straight conference championships and four straight bowl wins, we've actually got P5 teams coming to our stadium to play. Two have shown up already, Miami (FL) and Wake Forest and more scheduled for upcoming seasons. Plus playing teams we weren't familiar with in the Sun Belt, so we have new teams to dislike and develop rivalries with. It's actually been a lot of fun although the first season and a half of the two year transition really sucked.

Thanks for the kind words. Hope y'alls season is successful and beat Mt State.

Tell the gang and Mike at Red's Bar that we really miss our visits out there. Hope to see y'all in Boone someday.

Go Grizz !!

We love FBS for all the reasons written above. I miss the playoffs and our stadium tailgating but the rest is awesome in FBS.

We need to take down so.e P5 teams to become REAL in FBS and i believe the P5 wins are coming.

I hope to go to Montana in the next year to cheer on The Grizz !!
