The first round of basketball games between Montana and Montana State, originally scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 8, in Bozeman, have been moved back a day to Sunday, Jan. 9.

The women's game will tip off at 1 p.m., the men's game at 5 p.m.

The change was made to accommodate the Montana State football team's appearance in the FCS national championship game on Jan. 8 in Frisco, Texas.

The scheduling conflict would have led to staffing issues for the basketball games.

The teams' games in Missoula will be held on Feb. 26 and 27. The women will play at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 26, the men at 3 p.m. on the 27th in a game that will be shown on ESPNU.

Gee, I dunno. Could it be that people in Bozeman want to watch the football game? :roll:

This may work out to the mens advantage. They have to go to Eastern on Thursday, so this will give them an extra day now to travel and practice. I’m ok with it.

Do they get paid to work the BB game? Or are they volunteers?
