KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has announced the results of the NAIA Football GoRout Top 25 Poll No. 10. The Bulldogs remained in the no. 4 position in the poll for the third week in a row.

Western remains the highest seeded Frontier Conference team in a poll that featured four other Frontier schools.

The no. 4 ranked Montana Western Football team (8-1, 6-1) picked up their fifth straight win last weekend after overcoming four turnovers in a 27-14 home victory over the then ranked no. 14 Carroll College.
 
UMW's defense held Carroll to a mere 167 yards of total offense, with just 36 yards coming on the ground. Michael Palandri threw for 239 yards and a touchdown, despite being sacked five times in the win. He also led the Bulldog ground game with 89 total rushing yards.

Montana Western will close out the regular season with a road trip to La Grande, Oregon to take on Eastern Oregon University for the second time this season. The season opening 59-21 win marked the first victory of the season as veteran quarterback Palandri led the offensive attack, throwing for three touchdowns and rushing for another three. He threw for 320 yards of offense and rushed for another 15 yards.
