The Montana Grizzlies (Big Sky) added two games to their future schedules for the 2026 and 2027 seasons, with one team from the FBS and the other from the FCS.
The Grizzlies will play at Oregon State (Pac-12) in Corvallis, Oregon, on Saturday, September 19, 2026. Oregon State leads the all-time series 12-2-2 dating back to the first game in 1925. The most recent game was in 1996 when Montana defeated Oregon State 35-14. The Grizzlies went on to win the 1995 NCAA I-AA Championship.
In 2027, Montana will welcome Lehigh (Patriot League) to Missoula on Saturday, September 4. It will be the first meeting between the teams and a rare Western trip for the Mountain Hawks. Lehigh played at the Idaho Vandals in the 2024 FCS Playoffs and at the UC Davis Aggies in the 2019 regular season. UC Davis also hosted Lehigh during the 1977 NCAA Division II semifinals. Lehigh went on to win the 1977 NCAA D-II National Championship over Jacksonville State.
