(Washington, D.C.) - Montana's senior U.S. Senator Max Baucus is scheduled to present the trophy to the winner of the 112^th football matchup between the Montana Grizzlies and the Montana State Bobcats.

As both an avid football fan and a leader in supporting affordable higher education opportunities for Montana families, Baucus says he's proud to be a part of Montana's most storied rivalry.

"The only thing better than catching Cat-Griz weekend in the fall, is a catching a championship game in the dead of winter," said Baucus. "I'm looking forward to highlighting the teamwork and good sportsmanship that makes this rivalry part of who we are as Montanans."

The University of Montana Grizzlies are hosting the 2^nd ranked Montana State University Bobcats on Saturday, November 17^th with kickoff scheduled at 1:38PM. Baucus will attend the game and help preside over the victory ceremonies on the field immediately following the game.
