Here is a look at Montana, who from what I can tell is down one starter and two reserves due to injury from what I can tell. Sophomore shooting guard Michael Oguine is a significant loss. He had 22 at Washington and 17 vs. Boise State last year in non-conference action and averaged 11.0 points per game.
Montana doesn't have much size. Their best player a year ago was a Washington transfer in the post, but he graduated. NC State doesn't have as much size as they'll have from Dec. 15-on, but if the Wolfpack can get center Fabijan Krslovic of Australia into foul trouble, things should fall apart.
The other weird thing about studying Montana is they have a couple of key players who aren't coming close to duplicating what they did last year through its two games against USC and Wyoming. Particularly, senior guard Walter Wright, whose numbers are way done from a year ago.
