MISSOULA, Mont. -- Jeremy Calhouns three touchdowns kick-started a record runaway for the Montana Grizzlies Saturday en route to a 68-7Big Sky Conference thrashing of Sacramento State.Calhoun had touchdown runs of 32 and 23 yards in the first quarter as Montana (5-1, 2-1) took command.And then the offense exploded.Brady Gustafson threw four touchdown passes in the second quarter, including a 10-yard strike to Calhoun, as the lead grew to 41-0.By the end of the third quarter Montana had run up 128 straight points, dating to a 67-7 win over Mississippi State. A 78-yard interception return by Justin Strong put Montana up 61-0 at the 2:26 mark.Sacramento State (1-6, 1-3) could do little to stop the Grizzlies, who marked the first back-to-back 60-point games in program history.Youd like to get used to this, and youd like to go into every game and feel like the week before and score 60, Montana coach Bob Stitt said. A lot of this is the kids are executing very, very well and the quarterbacks finding the weakness in the defense and getting the ball where it needs to go.Gustafson was 28 of 35 passing for 246 yards, adding scoring strikes to Keenan Curran, Colin Bingham and Josh Horner. The check-down to Bingham covered 26 yards and made it 35-0.Well, the quarterback makes the whole thing go, Sacramento State coach Jody Sears said. He puts the ball where it needs to be. He had some really nice throws.At the end of the day our job as coaches is to put our kids in position to make plays. We didnt make enough of them, obviously.Montana pulled most of its starters after one series in the second half. John Nguyen tore off an 81-yard touchdown run, the longest in school history, on the first play.Nguyen ran for 116 yards on just seven carries, while Montana piled up 655 yards of offense.Quincy Jountti got Sacramento State (1-6, 1-3) on the board with a 36-yard scamper with 4:46 left in the game.Montana answered with a short pass from Chad Chalich that Joey Counts turned into a 60-yard touchdown with 1:31 remaining.Chalich, who threw for 172 yards in relief of Gustafson, also fed a 4-yard scoring pass to Caleb Lyons in the third quarter.The Hornets missed chances to score at the end of the first half, when a field goal was blocked by Montanas Caleb Kidder, and in the third quarter, when they turned it over on downs at the Grizzlies 6-yard line.The defensive staff puts together an unbelievable game plan for these guys and then they go out and execute it to a T, said Stitt, whose club came up six sacks and a fumble on special teams. Offensively, I thought we were pretty sharp.Calhoun ran for 62 yards. Bingham had five catches for 77 yards for Montana.THE TAKEAWAYSACRAMENTO STATE: The Hornets misfired early and racked up 136 penalty yards and surrendered five sacks.MONTANA: The Grizzlies, ranked No. 10 in the Football Championship Subdivision, mixed Jeremy Calhouns eighth and ninth touchdown runs of the season with a surgical passing game to pile up 655 yards.UP NEXTSACRAMENTO STATE: The Hornets stay on the road, playing at Northern Colorado.MONTANA: The Grizzlies take to the road to face Northern Arizona.

Smith Jersey .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back. Football Federation Australia has promised A-League clubs a significant financial boost from its improved six-year, $346 million TV deal with Fox Sports.But the governing body wont say how much, and it could be months before impatient owners learn what theyll receive from the increased revenue.Australian football entered uncharted territory on Tuesday, announcing a bumper $57.6 million a year deal deal that trumps - in both size and length - any previous arrangement with its foundation broadcaster.Under the deal, Fox Sports will show all A-League games live and maintain rights to Socceroos and Matildas matches.Fox Sports chief executive Patrick Delaney said FFA had eked the last bit of petrol out of their fiscal tank, as the governing body seeks to grow the round-game in a highly competitive Australian market featuring NRL and AFL TV deals in the billions.FFA claimed it was more than double its existing broadcast deal on a like-for-like basis, given most Socceroos games are now excluded and the free-to-air rights for a primetime Saturday night match not yet sold.Yet the overall deal will still likely fall short of the $80 million a year targeted by Gallop.His son and successor, Steven Lowy, said the lengthier-than-expected contract would offer more surety as the A-League sets sights on expansion, with Fox consulted about their preferred markets.I know for some six years sounds unusual, but its not unusual when youre looking to set a long-term partnership with long-term goals to grow the game, Lowy said.It gives us some certainty to invest in the A-League, W-League and grassroots football.This agreement gives us the confidence aand capital to do that.ddddddddddddAs FFA trumpets their success, the drums are beating in clubland as owners demand to know what slice of the pie theyll receive, with many feeling their current grant disproportionate to the broader revenue generated by the competition.The Australian Professional Football Clubs Association, recently created to represents all 10 clubs, released a statement after the announcement seeking immediate assurances FFA would distribute revenue appropriately.FFA chief executive David Gallop said clubs were briefed on Tuesday and were on board with an incentivised arrangement for funding beyond the salary cap.Weve told them we will work quickly to come up with a funding and distribution model that reflects their investment and acknowledges we have responsibilities to other parts of the game, Gallop said.We cant set a level today, but Im confident we can move quickly over the next few months to get to a significant increase for our clubs.The free-to-air component, pitched at hooking peripheral viewers, is unlikely to be done until the Big Bash League rights are purchased early next year.Channels Seven, Nine and Ten are prioritising the highly popular T20 competition, but Gallop said all had shown interest in broadcasting the A-League.Should none come to the table, Fox will broadcast the fifth match as a safety net, but Gallop was confident FFA would get good value in the free-to-air market.The new deal will end unpopular free-to-air channel SBSs time as a partner of the league.
