    George Ferguson|Updated Oct 12, 2015

    If anyone needed a sign as to whether the Montana State University-Northern Lights were going to give up on the 2015 season, then look no further than what MSU-N did Saturday. Yes, the Lights lost 48-17 at the hands of College of Idaho Saturday, but from an emotional and effort standpoint, Northern is still fully engaged right now. The Lights, especially a beleaguered Northern defense, which gave up 89 points two weeks ago at Southern Oregon, played with their hair on fire,...

  • George Ferguson Column: Football players don't quit, and the fans shouldn't either

    George Ferguson|Updated Oct 12, 2015

Giving up on your team, no matter how sad, mad, frustrated or angry you might be, is not being a true fan. My hope is the fans of the Montana State University-Northern Lights remains true to the Lights. Because one thing is certain, the Lights aren’t quitting. They didn’t quit at any point in Saturday’s loss to the College of Idaho Yot...
