Montana (#325 of 347)

The Grizz's nonconference schedule has only 6 Division I opponents (the Big Sky plays 20 conference games), but head coach Wayne Tinkle made sure there was some "beef" in the limited opportunities. And the Big Sky favorites seem likely to draw a quality Bracket Buster foe in February, too.
