the season is uncertain.

• SDSU finished with 382 total yards. Sumner was sacked four times.
• "On defense we got some pressure on the quarterback and got some sacks and I thought that was a positive," Sanford said.
• SDSU kicker Justin Syrovatka kicked three field goals; a 32-yarder in the first quarter and a 27-yarder and 35-yarder in the second.

Montana scores late to edge South Dakota 31-27

• VERMILLION, S.D. (AP) -- Ellis Henderson returned a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown with 1:36 to play as Montana rallied to beat South Dakota 31-27 on Saturday.
• Henderson scored three touchdowns, including two receiving for the Grizzlies. He also caught TD passes of 6 and 71 yards.
• Henderson's long kickoff return helped Montana survive a late South Dakota score.
• "It's a heartache, that's for sure," said South Dakota coach Joe Glenn, who led Montana to a national title in 2001. "We just can't fold our tent like that. What do you say when they run (a fumble) in for a touchdown then we kick it to their best player and we don't even touch him. We're not even close."
• With South Dakota up 24-17, Jordan Tripp forced a fumble that was returned 35 yards by Matt Hermanson for a touchdown with 6:33 remaining in the game. A 38-yard field goal from Miles Bergner with 1:48 left gave the Coyotes (4-6) a 27-24 lead, but then Henderson's kickoff return gave the lead back to the Grizzlies (8-2).
• "It was just disappointing," Glenn added. "We got outcoached there. We never should have kicked it to the kid. It just shouldn't happen."
• South Dakota had one final opportunity, driving 44 yards to the Montana 31-yard line before Bo Tully broke up a pass intended for Josh Vander Maten and the Coyotes turned the ball over on downs.
• Jordan Johnson had 337 yards passing and two touchdowns, highlighted by the 71-yard strike to Henderson in the first half.
