No History?

If Montana wins on Friday History is not on their side vs NDSU and Georgia Southern.

1969 Camellia Bowl
SACRAMENTO, CA--North Dakota State
steamrolled the University of Montana 30-3
here in the Camellia Bowl meeting between
the Nos. 1 and 2 teams in the nation.
Any doubt to the Bison's grip on the top
slot was disspelled by the overwhelming
display of the Fargo team. But this time,
NDSU changed the script slightly.
The Bison went to the air as QB Bruce
Grasamke completed 16 of 25 passes for
206 yards as the Bison finished with a total
of 234 passing yards and 421 yards in total
offense.
Grasamke opened the scoring with
a 7-yard run in the first period. After a
Montana field goal, NDSU followed with 24
consecutive points. Paul Hatchett took in
a 15-yard pass from Grasamke, Jim Twardy
kicked a 23-yard field goal, Dennis Preboski
ran 38 yards for another score, and Tim
Mjos hauled in an 8-yard pass from Mike
Bentson for the final TD. NDSU finished 10-
0-0 for the season.

1970 Camellia Bowl
SACRAMENTO, CA--North Dakota State
made it two in a row over the University of
Montana in Camellia Bowl action by whipping the Grizzlies 31-16 to cap another
undefeated season.
The Bison defeated Montana 30-3 in
1969 Camellia Bowl and now have won
five of six bowl games during a seven-year
span. This time, the Bison took advantage
of five lost Grizzly fumbles and the expertise of quarterback Mike Bentson. Bentson
totalled 208 yards in total offense and
scored three TDs.
His TD runs came on bursts of 4, 1 and
5 yards. Dennis Preboski tallied from five
yards out and Jim Twardy booted a 34-yard
field goal. NDSU rolled up a 28-3 margin in
the second period and was never seriously
threatened.

Believed It, Achieved It
Peterson’s Run Halts Grizzly Comeback Hopes
(December 16, 2000)
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - Adrian Peterson rushed for 148 yards and Georgia Southern withstood a fourth quarter rally by Montana to win the 2000
NCAA I-AA National Championship 27-25 at Finley Stadium. The national
championship is the second straight for Georgia Southern and its sixth in
school history. With a 20-3 lead midway through the third quarter, Georgia Southern’s national championship hopes appeared solid. But Montana
scored on three consecutive possessions to take a 23-20 lead. The Eagles
answered on their first play from scrimmage when Peterson broke-off tackle
for 57 yards and a touchdown to put GSU back in front, 27-23. Ryan Hadden ended one Montana drive in the fourth quarter with an interception
while two other drives ended in loss of downs. In addition to Peterson’s
rushing efforts, quarterback J.R. Revere completed five of eight passes for
113 yards. Georgia Southern built its 20-3 lead on a fumble recovery in the
end zone by James McCoy that gave the Eagles a 7-0 lead just 1:41 into
the game. Revere then hit Chris Johnson with a 49-yard scoring pass late
in the first quarter for a 13-0 advantage. After a Montana field goal cut the
lead to 13-3, Peterson scored the first of his two touchdowns on a one yard
run just 33 seconds before halftime.

One more note on Montana. They are 7-1 vs everyone at home and 0-5 away from Montana with 3 of those losses on neutral field.

MSU
7-1 at home
0-2 on road
0-3 on neutral

NDSU
1-0 at home
2-4 on road
2-0 neutral

SHSU
2-0 at home
0-4 on road

GSU
1-1 at home
0-1 on road
1-0 on neutral

Again this is in the pass and this is now but who knows history does repeat sometimes.

MSU isn't in it anymore.

One fact about the Camellia Bowls is that UM was not allowed to play with their I-A transfer players, who were the stars of the team.
