Houston State Warns Montana Down Sept.

NCAA Football Betting Lines

Huntsville, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sam Houston State is still undefeated, and the next stop is Frisco, Texas. The top-seeded, and only undefeated team in the FCS entering the playoffs, Sam Houston State built a big lead and then held on to defeat Montana, 31-28, in the semifinals on Friday night.

 

After getting stifled in the quarterfinals, Southland Player of the Year Tim Flanders put together one of the biggest performances of his career, rushing for 287 yards and a 69-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

 

After stopping Montana on the opening drive, Sam Houston State opened up the scoring on a 11-yard touchdown run at 10:36 by quarterback Brian Bell, who kept the ball on an option play and ran untouched into the end zone.

 

Following Bell's touchdown run, Montana responded with a 10-play drive, but couldn't capitalize as Brody McKnight's 48-yard field goal attempt into the wind wasn't even close.

 

Missing the field goal proved to be detrimental for the Grizzlies, as Flanders responded with a 69-yard touchdown run on the very next play at 6:00 of the first quarter.

 

Montana finally scored with 6:27 remaining in the second quarter, as Jordan Johnson connected with Jabin Sambrano for a 30-yard touchdown. The scoring strike capped a seven-play, 73-yard drive, following up the Grizzlies first defensive stop of the game.

 

Linebacker Caleb McSurdy gave Montana a lift just before halftime, intercepting a pass and returning it 59-yards for a touchdown with a minute remaining. Sam Houston State entered the halftime break ahead, 28-14.

 

Following the field goal, Montana cut Sam Houston State's lead to 31-21 on a three-yard touchdown run by Jordan Canada at 3:36 of the third quarter.

 

However, it wasn't enough to stop Sam Houston State, which put together a key clock-killing drive at the end of the game.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
