Well, it has begun. The BigSky Conference has canceled the fall football season, possibly for play in the Spring.

I get it...it's just an FCS league. This move is a financial crusher for Montana and Montana State. Be ready for other dominos to fall soon...an_beatup

BV , Sorry to hear that. Looks like most of the FCS is looking toward play

this Spring. Tough decision to make . Hope it works out for FCS schools.

Makes sense IMO for FCS.  They only have a few NFL prospects and they will get better TV exposure in the spring. The playoffs is a huge part of their season...

too bad the big sky was canceled, understandable though. EWU would have been champs, defeating Montana and MSU on the new red turf this year.

EWU has a long way to go after last year's debacle. Griz had a cush schedule...if they could have pulled the upset at EWU, then half of the playoff bracket was likely to go through Missoula. Now, it's crap. I feel bad for the seniors on all of these teams; they put in so much time and effort, just a real bad deal. 

Reports are circling that the Big 10 is going to announce cancellation today. We'll see...gambling stocks are tanking in early Monday trade. This season is toast. :(
