The Montana and Montana State football teams continue Big Sky Conference play this week.

Both the Bobcats and Grizzlies won their conference openers on the road last week — the Cats pulled away from Idaho State 37-17 and the Griz defeated Eastern Washington in a 52-49 thriller — and return home this week . Third-ranked Montana State looks to improve to 6-0 overall against Northern Colorado this season, while No. 8 Montana hosts old Big Sky rival Weber State.

Scripps Sports will broadcast both games on local TV in Montana. Both games will also be available to stream on ESPN+.

The game between Montana (4-1) and Weber State (2-3) starts at 1 p.m. and will air on the MTN channel throughout Montana, except for the Missoula and Flathead Valley markets, where the game will air on KPAX. In Helena and Great Falls, the Griz-Wildcats game will also be broadcast on KTVH and KTGF, respectively.

Montana State (5-0) and Northern Colorado (0-5) play at 2 p.m. That game will be broadcast on CBS affiliates KBZK in Bozeman, KXLF in Butte, KTVQ in Billings, KRTV in Great Falls and KXLH in Helena. In Missoula and the Flathead, the Cats-Bears game is broadcast on the MTN channel.
