BOZEMAN — Montana State put on an offensive clinic and secured enough stops down the stretch to pull out a thrilling 90-81 win over Northern Colorado on Saturday night inside Worthington Arena. 

Montana State (8-9, 3-1 Big Sky) picked up their third conference win in four tries to stay at the top of the Big Sky and hand Northern Colorado (9-7, 2-1 Big Sky) their first league defeat. 

The Bobcats shot a season-high 56.9% from the field on the way to 90 points, their most against a Division I opponent this year.
