Montana State secured a 28-14 victory over Northern Arizona in a Football Championship Subdivision matchup, extending their win streak to 19 games. Patrick Duchien played a pivotal role in the win, throwing a touchdown pass and running for two scores. The Bobcats, ranked No. 1 in the Stats Perform poll, have established a program-record 19-game streak, the second-longest active streak in Division I. Colson Coon dominated the ground game, amassing 199 yards on 18 carries.

Montana State's top-ranked quarterback Justin Lamson completed 16 of 20 passes for 204 yards with an interception, while freshman Carter Dahlke contributed with seven receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown.
