Montana's big win over Central Arkansas has the Grizzlies looking good in the 2011 FCS playoffs.
Dec 3, 2011 - The Montana Grizzlies have played for two of the last three FCS National Championship Games, and their performance in the first round of the 2011 FCS playoffs indicates that they might well play for another this year. The Grizzlies rolled past the Central Arkansas Bears, 41-14, in their opening game of the FCS playoffs.
Jordan Johnson threw for 135 yards and two touchdowns for the Grizzlies. Peter Nguyen and Jordan Canada combined for 137 rushing yards and three touchdowns, and Montana, the No. 4 national seed, allowed the Bears to tally just 290 total yards.
The Grizzlies would have nothing of a potential upset bid by Central Arkansas, which defeated Tennessee Tech in the first round of the FCS playoffs to earn a date with Montana, and ran up a 17-0 lead in the first quarter of play and a 38-0 lead in the third quarter before letting up on the gas.
The Grizzlies move on to play the winner of a second round match-up between Northern Iowa and Wofford.
