WATCH – Brawl of the Wild Coaches’ Corner – Montana head coach Bobby Kennedy on Eli Gillman, Idaho State & Senior Day

Montana head coach Bobby Kennedy joined Ryan Tootell and Colter Nuanez for the Brawl of the Wild Coaches’ Corner on ESPN Montana. Kennedy explains why he wanted the moment Eli Gillman broke Cooper Kupp’s touchdown record to be all about Eli, and why Gillman is a next-level running back who reminds him of Cedric Benson and Bryce Love.

He also breaks down what he respects about Cody Hawkins’ Idaho State team, which he calls the best defense the Griz have faced, the keys to pressuring Jordan Cook and matching the Bengals’ physicality up front, Senior Day under the lights on ESPN, what Missoula native Ian Finch means to the program and what it takes to win Saturday night.
