It was the first Big Sky Conference win for the Bears (1-8, 1-4 Big Sky) since joining the league last season.
Northern Colorado led 13-6 late in the fourth quarter until Jack Rolovich hit Demetrius Crawford on an 8-yard pass for a touchdown with 48 seconds left. Eric Fisher's extra point was good to give Montana State (5-3, 3-2) a 13-13 tie.
Rolovich was 28-of-47 passing for 346 yards and a touchdown but also had three interceptions for Montana State.
Bears quarterback Dominic Breazeale was 19-for-31 for a career-high 266 yards and a touchdown, with one interception.

Weber State 73,
Portland State 68
At Portland, Ore., no, they weren't playing basketball.
Weber State beat Portland State 73-68 to set an NCAA all-division record for most points in a game.
The previous record for most points by two teams was 136, set in 1968 when North Park beat North Central 104-32 in a Division III game. The Division I record was 133, set in 2004 when San Jose State beat Rice 70-63.
Back in 1916, Georgia Tech beat Cumberland 222-0, but that was before the NCAA kept track of records.
Weber State's Cameron Higgins passed for 334 yards and four touchdowns. Trevyn Smith ran for 225 yards for the Wildcats (3-5, 3-3 Big Sky Conference).
In his first college start, freshman Drew Hubel threw nine touchdown passes for Portland State to set a school and conference record.
Portland State (2-6, 2-3) made up for its shaky defense with a high-powered offense that started the second half with a pair of Hubel touchdown passes, first to David Lewis and then to Tremayne Kirkland. That put the Vikings in front 41-38.
Portland State, whose offensive coordinator is Run-and-Shoot guru Mouse Davis, had its last lead of the game when Hubel hit Lewis with an 8-yard scoring toss at 8:15 of the third quarter to make it 48-45.
The Wildcats took the lead for good on their next possession, which chewed up nearly six minutes and culminated with Higgins' 4-yard touchdown pass to Akamu Aki. That made it 52-48.
Weber State followed that with Bryant Eteuati's 77-yard punt return for a touchdown and Higgins' 4-yard scoring run, which pushed the Wildcats' advantage to 66-48 early in the fourth quarter.
The teams traded touchdowns after that, leaving Weber State in front 73-55 with 4:22 left.
Hubel threw his ninth TD pass and Andy Shantz returned a fumble 84 yards for a touchdown with 31 seconds left.
