SAM HOUSTONSAM HOUSTONSAM HOUSTON2015 BEARKAT FOOTBALL GAME NOTES

This fall Sam Houston celebrates its 100th season of football. On Oct. 6, 1912, Sam Houston Teachers Col-lege and Rice Institute met in Huntsville for both school’s inaugural football game. The contest was played on a chalked off gridiron in the out-field at the baseball diamond at Joseph Pritchett Field. Since that first contest, Sam Houston has played 989 games, appearing in contests not only in Texas but traveling to 21 other states covering all four corners of the country from Arizona to Pennsylvania, Washington to Florida. The Bearkats have brought both regional and national recognition to the University through multiple television appearances on the ESPN and FOX families of TV networks as well as ABC. Sam Houston has competed and won cham-pionships in four leagues - the Texas Intercolle-giate Athletic Association, Lone Star Conference, Gulf Star Conference and Southland Conference. Throughout the celebration of the 100th season during the 2015 season fans are invited to sample feature articles, historical memories and pictures from the past at the special Bearkat microsite at www.shsu.edu/centuryseason.

A probable berth in the 2015 FCS playoffs and the runner-up spot in the Southland Conference race are at stake when Sam Houston visits Central Arkansas Saturday in Conway. The Bearkats join North Dakota State and New Hampshire as the only FCS programs to have earned playoff berths each of the past four seasons. The Kats must have a victory Saturday to keep that streak alive. Should Sam Houston prevail and earn the FCS berth, the Bearkats would become only the sec-ond Southland Conference member to advance to the playoffs five consecutive seasons. McNeese State made five straight appearances from 1991 to 1995. The Cowboys equaled Sam Houston’s feat of four straight playoff berths from 2000 to 2003. The Bearkats and the Cowboys rank first and second in all-time playoff victories. Sam Houston owns a 13-8 record in FCS post-season play while McNeese is 11-15. Sam Houston has advanced to the national championship game twice (2011 and 2012) and the semi-finals three of the last four years. McNeese reached the FCS finals in 1997.

FCS PLAYOFF BERTH, RUNNER-UP SPOT UP FOR GRABS

Keshawn Hill rushed for 242 yards including TD runs of 13 and 15 yards as Sam Houston earned its third Southland football championship in four years with a 38-31 over Central Arkansas on Nov. 22 last year in Huntsville. With the score tied 21-21 late in the second quarter, a field goal block by P. J. Hall set up a 32-yard field goal by Luc Swimberghe to give the Kats a 24-21 lead seven seconds before halftime. Sam Houston never trailed again, building a 38-21 lead in the third period. UCA struck back for 10 points to cut the margin to a touchdown with 3:03 to play. But the offense ran out the final minutes to clinch the title and raise a trophy.

P. J. HALL ADDING TO HIS DEFENSIVE TOTALS

Sophomore P. J.

Andre Finley, who earned All-Southland honors in 1986-89, holds both career marks with 49 tackles for losses and 36 quarterback sacks.

Paul Wenzel also has a 90-yard intercep-tion for a score in a 1968 Sam Houston game with Sul Ross. Big plays by the Bearkat defense have set up scoring sprees in three wins. Interceptions by Tyrel Stokes, Sammy Webb IV and Trenier Orr powered the team to a 28-0 third quarter on the way to a 63-14 victory over Houston Baptist. Midway through the second quarter the score was tied 14-14. Stokes returned his interception 25-yards for a score. Sam Houston got a quick start in the 59-7 victory over Incarnate Word with three TDs in less than a two-minute span in the first quarter thanks to its defense. After a 66-yard Jared Johnson to Cory Avery scoring pass, interceptions by P. J. Hall and Mikell Everette set up short, quick scoring drives. In the second quarter, Collins Okotcha returned the Kats’ third interception of the night for a 60-yard score. Sam Houston led at half 52-0. In the 37-7 win over Nicholls, a first quarter interception by Torian Williams set up a two-play, 20-yard scoring drive in a 23-0 opening period for the Kats. In the third quarter, a forced fumble and recovery by P. J. Hall sparked a two-play 15-yard drive that gave the Kats a 37-0 lead. Williams also set up a short TD drive vs. Northwestern State with a fumble recovery at the Demon 20-yard line. In ten games this year, the defense has forced 47 three-and-out series ending with a punt. The turnovers caused by the Bearkat defense have resulted in 84 points. The Sam Houston defense has posted 77 tackles for 238 yards in yards. That includes 19 quarter-back sacks.
