Strength of schedule not team’s weakness this season
It’s Nov. 24, 2007 and the University of Montana football team had seemingly preserved their perfect season. Running back Lex Hilliard scored on a one-yard run to put Montana up 22-17 against the Wofford Terriers with less than five minutes left to play.
But the Southern Conference champs did the unthinkable, marching the length of the field with their veer option attack. With 32 seconds left, fullback Michael Hobbs scored from six yards out to put Wofford up 23-22. The Grizzlies comeback bid failed when Dan Carpenter’s 47-yard field goal just missed as time expired.

Digglers: scooting into town
Gravity has a new friend: rugged scooters designed for downhill terrain known as Digglers. Braking like mountain bikes, carving like snowboards, while being ridden like scooters, the hybrid vehicles are available for rental at Snowbowl through this weekend.
“They’re ideal for going downhill,” said Brad Morris, the owner of Snowbowl.
Morris said Snowbowl rents out the 10 Digglers, which feature 20-inch mountain bike-style tires, front and rear disc brakes, front wheel suspension and a skateboard-like platform to stand on.
