Ouch! I had SHSU finishing 2nd in the Southland. Maybe not.

It's not as bad as the final score. If Sam takes care of the ball and makes more than 5 of 12 third down conversions, this game looks much more lopsided. The Bearkats will be fine.

They're a bottom dweller (#41 in D2) in the Lone Star Conference. Went 3-7 last year.

Not so sure about that. Angelo State dropped a TD pass in the end zone where the guy was all alone and had another called back on what the Kat fans say was a homer call on the part of the officials.

Gobearkats.com full write-up. Good interviews at the bottom of the page. It seems coach TW knows we have some problems and hopefully will address them.
Sam Houston State 17, Angelo State 13
Quarterback Rhett Bomar passed for 204 yards and one touchdown and ran for 24 more and another score to lead Sam Houston State to a 17-13 non-conference victory over Angelo State in the season opener at Bowers Stadium Thursday night.
Bomar completed 16 of 24 passes including a 64-yard touchdown throw to Justin Wells for the first score of the game with 9:47 to play in the first quarter.
After a Taylor Wilkins field goal with 43 seconds left in the opening quarter, Bomar ran for an eight yard tally to complete a 93-yard, 11 play drive to put SHSU up 17-0.
It wasn't the kind of start they were hoping for. In fact, it was downright ugly.
But when the final seconds ticked off the clock Thursday night at Bowers Stadium, there was a collective sign of relief because Sam Houston State dodged a blue and yellow bullet.
Angelo State gave the Bearkats all they could handle before two huge defensive stops late in the fourth quarter helped secure a 17-13 victory.
