7/28/2022 5:02:00 PM | Football
With Montana picked to win the Big Sky title for the first time in over a decade, expectations for the 2022 season are high in Missoula as the start of fall camp draws near.
Â
The Grizzlies officially begin that championship quest on Monday, August 8, with the first of 18 preseason practices leading up to the home opener on September 3 in Washington-Grizzly Stadium.
Â
Players report to fall camp on Friday, August 5, for two days of meetings, equipment fitting, and walk-throughs. The Griz then return to Dornblaser Field at UM's south campus for the first official practice of fall camp at 2:30 p.m. on August 8.
Â
The first 11 practices of camp through August 19 are open to the public, with each set to begin at 2:30. Practices will be closed August 20-27 in the lead-up to game week. All practices remain open for Quarterback Club members.
Â
With 18 starters, 38 returning lettermen, and seven returning All-Big Sky picks, Montana was selected by the league's coaches and media to win its first conference title since 2009 earlier in the week.
Â
Returning Buchanan Award finalist Patrick O'Connell was named the league's preseason Defensive MVP, while four other Grizzlies earned a place on the preseason all-conference team.
Â
Montana will play six regular-season games in the friendly confines of Washington-Grizzly stadium this season, where the Griz hold a 215-34 record since the "mecca of FCS football" opened in 1986.
Â
Season and single-game tickets are on sale now, along with "Roaming Griz" passes and three-game mini-plans. For more information, visit GoGriz.com/ticketcentral or GrizTix.com.
