Montana’s Offense Looks to Continue Success
Montana faced off against Northwest Indian College on Tuesday and it was a dominant victory. At the end of the first half, Montana was up 54-22 and they never looked back on teh way to the 107-59 victory. Aanen Moody had a strong game finishing with 25 points, four assists, and two rebounds. Money Williams also finished with 19 points, four rebounds, and three assists. In this game, Montana will need the offense to be good, but the defense is also going to need to be better. This is a big step up in competition and they need to treat it lke such.
Oregon Got Season Out to First Start
Oregon opened up the season against Georgia, and it was a comfortable victory. At the end of the first half they were up 40-30 and they scored another 42 points in the second half on the way to the victory. Oregon shot 42.5 percent from the field and 40 percent from behind the three point line. They only shot 15 threes and made six of them. N’Faly Dante had quite the game finishing with 16 points, 21 rebounds, and two assists. Brennan Rigsby also had 16 points, six rebounds, and three assists.
Shane’s Free Pick
There is going to be no shortage of scoring in this game. Oregon had no issue running up the score and they are going to have no issue running up the score again here. I also expect Montana is going to have success here scoring, and although they might not win this game, they are going to score enough to put this game over the total. Back the over. This is one of the top plays on Friday.
