Eleven of those three-pointers were made by Bearkat guard Corey Allmond. Allmond's 11 buckets from outside set school and Southland Conference records as well as the most by any player at historic Rupp Arena. He finished the night with a game-high 37 points in the Kats' first matchup against a top-five opponent since taking on No. 1 UCLA in 2006.

We got off to a poor start and we fell behind, but we were able to close the gap a little bit because of our shooting in the first half   -Bob Marlin

 

All-SEC center Jarvis Varnado fell just short of his second career triple-double and tied for a game-high 20 points to power the Mississippi State Bulldogs (1-1) to an 82-67 victory Thursday night against Southeastern Louisiana (2-1) in Humphrey Coliseum. Varnado recorded his second-straight game scoring at least 20 points, scoring exactly 20 against SELU on 6-of-8 shooting. Having led the nation the past two consecutive years in shot-blocking, the senior swatted eight shots and claimed nine rebounds.

The win allowed the Colonels to keep the River Bell Trophy for the second straight year. Caston, who rushed for 82 yards, and Marlin Meeks, who had 115 yards, led a running attack that compiled 322 yards. Caston's 1-yard run gave the Colonels (3-8, 2-5 Southland Conference) a 45-23 lead with 3:17 remaining in the game.  

UTSA will host the Southland Conference tournament at the Convocation Center. Four matches are scheduled today, including top-seeded Texas State (19-12, 13-3 SLC) against No. 8 Southeastern Louisiana (9-18, 5-11) in the opener at 11 a.m. The sixth-seeded Roadrunners (12-18, 7-9) host the No. 3 Stephen F. Austin Ladyjacks (22-12, 11-5) at 6:30.  

The Bulldogs (1-1) outrebounded the Lions 47-30 and got double-digit outings from all five starters. Southeastern Louisiana (2-1) was 26-for-66 from the field with 11 turnovers. Mississippi State led 42-29 at the half behind Ravern Johnson's 11 points and dominated the second half offensively.  

A short-handed Mississippi State squad will try to put a forgettable season opener behind it when Southeastern Louisiana visits at 7 tonight at Humphrey Coliseum. The Bulldogs, who lost 88-74 to Rider on Friday, have a bench thinned by injuries and will be without starting forward Kodi Augustus, who's been suspended two games for his outburst following the season opener. Junior Phil Turner will replace him in the starting lineup tonight.  

Sam Houston State is becoming a haven for cast-off FBS quarterbacks. Three years ago, Rhett Bomar left Oklahoma in search of more playing time. Bomar wasn't pleased with the Sooners and demanded more snaps than Bob Stoops would allow.

We didn’t have a quarterback with a whole lot of collegiate experience, so we started looking around   -Todd Whitten

 

How talented was Bastrop High's 2009 football signing class? The fact that all five are playing as true freshmen should give a pretty good indication. As far as quantity, Bastrop has produced larger classes.
