No. 5 Montana State is poised to return to the field after its bye week, heading to San Luis Obispo, California, to face Cal Poly this Saturday. The Bobcats aim to improve as they enter the latter part of their regular season.
Focus on Consistency
Montana State’s approach is clear: they want to maintain consistency throughout the remainder of the season. Running back Julius Davis emphasized the importance of avoiding dips in performance.
“We want to try and be a team that’s not dipping so much,” remarked Davis. Head Coach Brent Vigen echoed this sentiment, highlighting the rarity of college football opportunities. “You want to show up with a consistent team and a proven team each week,” he stated.
Preparing for Cal Poly
Montana State is well aware of Cal Poly’s capabilities, particularly noting their recent victory over a ranked Sacramento State. The Mustangs have utilized two quarterbacks this season: Ty Dieffenbach and Bo Kelly. Vigen explained the strengths of both players.
- Ty Dieffenbach: A 6’6″ quarterback known for his throwing ability and athleticism.
- Bo Kelly: Standing 6’0″, Kelly is more mobile and adept at making plays on the run.
“Both bring different strengths,” Vigen explained, “though their offensive style remains relatively consistent.” Montana State is preparing to adapt to these varied quarterback styles as they strategize for Saturday’s game.
