Gubrud's 4 TD passes carry E Montana past Montana St 41-17

BOZEMAN, Mont. -- Gage Gubrud threw for a school record 520 yards and four touchdowns to different receivers to lead Eastern Washington to a 41-17 win over Montana State on Saturday. Gubrud was 37 for 51, hitting Shaq Hill , Cooper Kupp , Jayce Gilder and Zach Wemberly for scores as keep the Eagles (6-1, 4-0) unbeaten in the Big Sky Conference. The Bobcats led from the opening drive until 2:27 was remaining in the half. MSU fumbled on its own 16 and the Eagles were in the end zone two plays later on a 9-yard TD run by Antoine Custer, Jr. to take a 21-17 advantage. EWU would tack on a 49-yard field goal by Roldan Alcobendas on the final play of the half, only their second halftime lead of the season, to go up 24-17. MSU quarterback Chris Murray contributed a pair of big first quarter plays, but was held in check after that.
