No. 7 Oregon Hosts Montana State in Autzen Stadium Opener
Oregon is favored by 27.5 points as the Ducks, led by coach Dan Lanning, seek to start strong against Montana State, who finished 15-1 last season, at Autzen Stadium.
- On Saturday, August 30, 2025, the Oregon Ducks will open their season at Autzen Stadium, Eugene, Oregon, against the Montana State Bobcats in a game that could launch their national-title chase.
- After camp concluded, Oregon named Justin Lamson, a transfer quarterback from Stanford, as the starter, with coaches stressing the need to avoid a sluggish start and leverage team strengths.
- Oddsmakers peg Oregon as a 27.5-point favorite with a 56.5 over/under, but Montana State Bobcats finished 15-1 with top FCS offense and returners like Taco Dowler and Tommy Mellott.
- To cover the spread, Oregon must play to its potential and lean into its strengths to start well before facing Oklahoma State on Sept. 6.
- The historical rarity of this matchup means the Oregon Ducks and Montana State Bobcats face only their second meeting since Oregon's 27-14 1947 win, while Montana State aims to prove FCS royalty status.
