national seed host their first ever NCAA Division I Football Championship playoff contest in school history this Saturday night at Strawberry Stadium. The Lions, who earned a first-round bye, host Southland Conference rival Sam Houston State, which advanced by virtue of their 51-20 victory over Southern Utah in the first round. Sam Houston State enters Strawberry Stadium with a 9-4 mark for a 7 o'clock kick off Saturday. Southeastern had the Bearkats' number in their regular season conference meeting taking a 34-21 victory in Hammond. The Lions coaching staff led by second-year head coach Ron Roberts hopes the SLU offense can continue to put points on the board spearheaded by junior signal caller Bryan Bennett, who has passed for 2,610 yards with 18 touchdowns. Bennett also leads the Lion's ground game with 934 yards and a school record 14 rushing TDs.
