GREELEY, Colo. (AP) — Cam Humphrey threw three touchdown passes and ran for another score and Montana rolled to a 35-0 win over Northern Colorado on Saturday.

Humphrey had a 20-yard scoring run in the first quarter for the second score for the Grizzlies (7-2, 4-2 Big Sky Conference); ranked 10th in the FCS coaches poll.

The two early scores were set up when Northern Colorado turned the ball over on an interception and downs.

Humphrey connected with Cole Grossman for a 21-yard touchdown to open the scoring and hooked up with Samuel Akrem for 42-yards late in the second for a 21-0 lead at halftime.

Akem had a 17-yard scoring reception in the third quarter. The Grizzlies cashed in on a fumble with Isiah Childs' 2-yard run in the fourth quarter.

Humphrey was 19 of 25 for 233 yards.

Northern Colorado (3-7, 2-5) had two turnovers, gave up the ball on downs twice and was 3 of 16 on third down.

Montana got its first shutout since 2011.
