The 2025 Big Sky football season is rolling, and we’re breaking down everything you need to know from Week 1 and looking ahead to Week 2.

We start with Big Sky alumni making NFL practice squads—including Patrick O’Connell, Junior Bergen, and more—before diving into Montana State’s tough opener at Oregon, Sacramento State’s struggles, and Idaho’s near-upset of Washington State.

We preview Week 2’s biggest matchups, including Montana’s season opener, Eastern Washington at Boise State, and the gold rush showdown in Bozeman between Montana State and South Dakota State.

Our panel— Luke Schmit , Fritz Neighbor , Jon Allen , and Mark Nelke—makes their picks of the week and highlights who to watch as the season heats up.
