I saw those steel wires, but how would they be used to hold a batt in
the vertical position? Is it just a matter of getting support on each
side of the insulation and it will stay up on its own? If that's the
case, could I just put some kind of support on the backside (zigzag
some twine or horizontal ferring strips), throw up the insulation, duct
tape the front for support, add my plastic vapor barrier and then put
up the drywall? Would that be all I needed? Would the insulation stand
up because it's got no place to go, or would it eventually collapse and
sit in the bottom of the cavity? Thanks for all the help.

This is just an opinion, no basis in fact.

Once the walls are up on both sides I doubt that the insulation could sag
more than 6".

Use a strip taller than what you thing it may sag and you are good to go
with any temp support you like.

What is the back side? Is this a basement?

Duck tape sounds like a winner for the room side.
