Bearkats up 24-7 at halftime.
Defense and some big plays.

How beneficial is it to start the season with two I-AA teams given our situation?
- Thread starter Knight_Classes_begin_7pm
- Start date
A surprising 34-14 win in our opener. Should make next weekend a little more interesting.
Look forward to meeting some of you.

Warner transferred from Temple to Rice. Lateral move at best. He’s not anywhere near as good as his Dad. Rice had 7 sacks. Our D will have a field day. KJ better do better than Warner.
Looking forward to Saturday. Sam Houston State will provide a little more resistance than New Hampshire.
Guys need to be present and not looking ahead to TCU. Not calling for an upset or calling this a trap game, but I could definitely see this being a little closer than the spread will indicate.

It should be very beneficial. The most important aspect of our team that needed live reps to work on was the passing game, though, and in my opinion we wasted the opportunity to work on that (in a game where a lot of mistakes could have been made and we still win handily).
Bearkats pluck Owls to win season opener
The Bearkats snapped a four-game losing streak to Rice dating back to 1941.
Sam Houston will be a different story than New Hampshire! Much better team.
115) Sam Houston Bearkats (+4)
Sam Houston had a rude awakening in the FBS last season, going 3-9. But a closer look shows reason for optimism. The Bearkats ended the year strong, winning three of their final four games. Additionally, they dropped six contests by 10 points or less, including a five-point defeat to 2023 CUSA champ Liberty and an overtime loss to Jacksonville State.The defense should remain strong, even after coordinator Joe Morris left. HC K.C. Keeler hired former Abieline Christian DC Skyler Cassity to run the unit after he helped his former program hold 14 of its 19 FCS opponents under their season scoring averages from 2022-2023.
The offense just needs to score more than 20 points per game (second lowest in the CUSA last season). They did just that against a veteran-laden Rice defense, winning 34-14. Hunter Watson beat out Central Michigan transfer Jase Bauer for the starting QB job, and while it wasn’t always pretty, the offense averaged 6.2 yards per play with him at the helm.
About to head to the airport, how about some tips?
Plan to head to campus early afternoon and enjoy some tailgating, have a parking pass in D Garage.
Think there's a concert about 4:00, worth checking out?
Want to head into stadium a little early, visitors side tickets with Black/Gold Cabana access.
Feel free to say hello, will be in orange with orange shoes as pictured!!!!

There’s a bar near stadium. It’s usually busy. I like to get a couple drinks there before walking in.
Enjoy the game buddy! Disregard any assholes you run into, we’ve been known to have a few.
I would hope no one messes with Sam Houston St fans. Never had any interaction with them to have any animosity.
