Sam Houston State and Louisiana Tech will cap off a three-game college football slate on Friday night.

It’s been a trying season for Sam Houston State. The Bearkats were a program on the rise under KC Keeler, but he’s departed for Temple, leaving SHSU in a rebuild under Phil Longo.

Year 1 hasn’t been pretty, with the Bearkats sitting at 0-7 overall.

What our Post expert thinks about Sam Houston vs. Louisiana Tech

Louisiana Tech will need a lot of help if it wants to reach the Conference USA Championship. The Bulldogs have lost two in a row, and now need to run the table and have the out-of-town scoreboard go their way if they want to challenge for a spot in the curtain-closer.

A win against Sam Houston would help with that cause, but it would also put Louisiana Tech one win away from becoming bowl-eligible, too.
