Toone caught six passes overall for 128 yards as the Wildcats earned their first victory of the season. Toone opened the scoring with a 15-yard TD reception with 2:02 to play in the first quarter. With one second left in the first quarter, Toone caught a 50-yard scoring strike from sophomore QB Cameron Higgins. Toone added an 18-yard touchdown with 10:17 to play in the third quarter, and a 22-yard scoring reception with 4:38 to play in the third, putting the Wildcats ahead 26-7. In Weber State’s first four games of the regular season, he had three catches for 78 yards with one touchdown.

He had two third-down tackles that led to Bobcat stops. Daly’s 17 tackles was the most by a Bobcat since Kane Ioane registered 21 in a 2003 game. Daly is averaging a league-best 12 tackles per game.

Montana’s Dan Carpenter made a 34-yard field goal with 26 seconds to play to lift the top-ranked Grizzlies to a 24-23 win over Eastern Washington. Carpenter’s game-winning field goal was set up by a spectacular 27-yard grab by Ryan Bagley on a fourth-and-10. Carpenter’s field goal came less than two minutes after Felipe Macias gave the Eagles the lead with a 39-yard field goal. Eastern Washington rolled up 565 yards of total offense, including 451 through the air, against UM’s defense, which entered the game ranked sixth in the nation…Northern Arizona pulled out a dramatic 44-43 victory over Portland State in the Rose City. Portland State’s Olaniyi Sobomehin scored on a 1-yard pass from Brian White with six seconds left in regulation. Instead of going for the tie with an extra point, Portland State gambled by going for two, but failed. Ironically, Northern Arizona took a 44-37 lead when Kasseem Osheroff recovered a fumble on a botched Portland State PAT try early in the fourth quarter, and returned it for two points. WIDE RECEIVER SATURDAY: Saturday proved to be a huge day for Big Sky Conference wide receivers. Eastern Washington sophomore Aaron Boyce hauled in a school record 17 catches for 232 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles’ loss to Montana. The 17 catches were the fourth-most catches in league history. The record is 21 by Montana’s State’s David Pandt against EWU in 1986. EWU’s previous record was 13. The 232 yards ranked as the thirdmost in school history...Portland State senior Tremayne Kirkland caught 14 passes for 225 yards with one touchdown in Portland State’s loss to Northern Arizona. Kirkland also had four rushes for 20 yards, scoring one touchdown. Kirkland’s 225 receiving yards ranked as the sixth-most in school history, and the second-most of their Big Sky era. Terry Charles had 276 receiving yards in a 1999 win over Montana. The 14 catches tied for the third-most in school history, and are the most in their Big Sky era…Weber State’s Tim Toone matched his career touchdown total, tying a school record with four receiving touchdowns in Weber State’s win over Sacramento State…Idaho State senior Eddie Thompson also had a huge day in Idaho State’s win over Northern Colorado. Thompson hauled in 10 catches for 137 yards with two touchdowns. Thompson leads the Big Sky with 46 catches…Portland State’s Olaniyi Sobomehin, a fullback, had 10 catches for 89 yards with two touchdowns. He also averaged 4.7 yards per carry and scored one rushing touchdown.

EWU QB Matt Nichols set a school record with 37 completions against Montana. He threw the ball 59 times and had 451 passing yards. The 451 yards was the third-most in school history, just 35 yards shy of Todd Bernett’s record of 486 set in 1994 against Montana. Nichols threw two touchdowns and no interceptions…Portland State’s Brian White continued his hot streak, completing 35-of-52 passes for 442 yards with four touchdowns. White has thrown for 1,542 yards with nine touchdowns in his last four games…NAU’s Lionel Scott led the rushing attack with 172 yards on 20 carries with two touchdowns. He averaged 8.6 yards per carry, while Alex Henderson averaged 7.2 yards per carry for the Lumberjacks, who amassed 296 yards on the ground in the win over the Vikings.

Boyce helped Eastern Washington come within seconds of an upset of Montana on the road with a school-record 17 receptions for 232 yards and one touchdown in the Eagles’ 24-23 loss to the Grizzlies. Boyce’s 17 catches were the fourth- most ever in a Big Sky Conference football game. David Pandt of Montana State holds the record with 21 in 1986 against EWU. The 232 yards was the third best performance in Eagle history, just short of the record of 264 by Jason Anderson in a 1994 loss to Montana. Four EWU players had previous caught 13 passes in a single game. Boyce hauled in a 37yard scoring strike from quarterback Matt Nichols in the third quarter to give the Eagles a 17-14 lead. AROUND THE BIG SKY SOME D: Despite all of the offensive numbers put up last weekend, there were some outstanding defensive efforts. Montana State rode its defense to a 7-3 win over Southern Utah. The game was played in the mud as four inches of snow melted, creating less than ideal playing conditions. Montana State’s Kory Austin sealed the victory with an interception with 33 seconds to play in the end zone. Montana State’s defense has allowed just two touchdowns in the last four games, all MSU victories. The Bobcats have 10 interceptions this season, second in the Big Sky. The last time Montana State won a game while scoring in single-digits was in 1972, when the Bobcats beat Weber State 9-3 in Ogden. It was MSU’s first win when scoring as few as seven points since 1955, when the Bobcats opened the season with a 7-6 win over Lewis and Clark. The 10 total points the teams combined for Saturday marked the lowest output in the history of Sales/Bobcat Stadium…Idaho State and Weber State also turned in outstanding defensive efforts. Idaho State held Northern Colorado scoreless for three quarters, and kept the Bears from crossing midfield until the fourth quarter. Linebacker Ryan Phipps had 12 tackles and a sack. Weber State held Sacramento State to just seven points, almost posting its first shutout of a Big Sky opponent since beating Nevada 10-0 in a 1980 game in Ogden. Sacramento State had just 272 yards of total offense. THE CENTURY MARK: Weber State coach Ron McBride can earn his 100th career coaching victory with a win over Northern Colorado on Saturday. McBride earned 88 victories from 1990-2002 as the head coach at the University of Utah. He has 11 victories in his third season with the Wildcats. SOUERS UP TO 52: Northern Arizona coach Jerome Souers earned his 52nd career victory last Saturday. Souers ranks eighth on the Big Sky’s all-time win list. He can move into a tie for seventh with former Weber State coach Dave Arslanian, and former Idaho coach John L. Smith with a win on Saturday against Idaho State. Eastern Washington’s Paul Wulff and Montana’s Bobby Hauck are both closing in on the top 10 list. Wulff has 47 victories. Hauck has 46. BIG SKY’S ALL-TIME TOP 10 COACHING Coach, School Years 1.
