Sam Houston has great defense and has now found some offense as they have had an impressive win 2 weeks ago and almost beat a very good Liberty team on the road last week. This team seems to keep putting it all together and improving each week where they have become competitive in their games now. New Mexico State has been playing well and doing well under Jerry Kill in his second season but this may be a tight game that comes down to a field goal. Getting more than a field goal in this game is extra value so take it.

Best bet: take the points with Sam Houston.
