Kickoff times and TV details were announced for the majority of Montana’s 12-game football season last week with the Big Sky Conference finalizing its full league slate.  

The Grizzlies will become the first FCS team to play eight regular season home games in 2025, with most set to start in the traditional early afternoon time slot. Montana will open the season under the lights at Washington-Grizzly Stadium against Central Washington, but six of the remaining seven home games will start mid-day.  

The only start time yet to be determined is the Sept. 27 contest against Idaho on the ESPN Networks. 

Montana will play six of its first seven games of the season at home, starting with Central Washington on Sept. 6 with kickoff set for 6 p.m. Ten of Montana’s 12 games will be broadcast by Scripps Sports, with streaming available on ESPN+. 

The Big Sky Conference home schedule starts Sept. 27 with Idaho on ESPN in Missoula, before continuing with Cal Poly on Oct. 11 at 2 p.m. for Homecoming on Scripps Sports.
