PORTLAND, Ore. — Keali’i Ah Yat accounted for four touchdowns, Eli Gillman had two rushing touchdowns, and Montana beat Portland State 63-17 on Saturday.

Ah Yat was 14-of-24 passing for 184 yards with no interceptions and Gillman finished with 81 yards rushing on 10 carries for Montana (11-0, 7-0 Big Sky Conference), ranked No. 2 in the FCS coaches poll.

The Grizzlies close the regular season at home next Saturday against third-ranked Montana State with the conference title and automatic bid into the FCS playoffs on the line.

Ah Yat threw an incomplete pass on third-and-10, but a pass interference penalty gave the Grizzlies a fresh set of downs and on the next play Gillman — who ran for a 4-yard TD to make it 7-7 with 6:33 remaining in the first quarter — ripped off a 60-yard touchdown
