Sam Houston now knows what is going on.
It took a year to get here, but as an FBS program, it is been able to show what it can do.
With six wins, they are already in the running for a bowl spot. Now they just need to win their last four games to stay in the running for the Conference USA title.
It was not a great game for Louisiana Tech against UTEP, but they will take the win. After going 3-4, it needs to quickly do something great to get to six wins and a bowl.
This is the first of three road games in the next four. With games against Jacksonville State, WKU, and Arkansas coming up, it could be now or never. The last game is at Kennesaw State.

Why Sam Houston Will Win
Texas Tech does not have a running game to worry about.
It was great against Middle Tennessee, but in four of the six FBS games, it did not go over 100 yards.
Last week against UTEP, it was at its worst when the line could not handle a bunch of big plays behind the line. In the end, the Bulldogs could only gain seven net yards on the ground.
Since both offenses are not moving the ball well, this should come down to turnovers. If you want to take the ball away, Sam Houston is one of the best teams in the league. Louisiana Tech’s defense sometimes makes big plays, but not always. But…
Louisiana Tech vs Sam Houston: Who Will Win
Sam Houston is very good at keeping track of time and speed.
Louisiana Tech can slow things down, but the Bearkats are much better at it and hold the ball for more than 33 minutes every game.
