Montana vs Northern Colorado Prediction

This should be a fun game between two powerhouses in the Big Sky and you can make a case for either side. Northern Colorado and Montana split the two games this season, with the road team winning both games. I’m going to side with the over and call it a night. Montana is an efficient offense that’s third in field goal percentage, while Northern Colorado is top-40 in scoring and first in field goal percentage. Both teams have looked comfortable in this tournament and the meeting a month ago produced 164 points. Two of the best offenses in the country, I expect a fun back and forth. Give me the over.
