Sam Houston State, fresh off an appearance in the FCS National Championship game one season ago, will travel to Conway, Ark., to take on the Bears of Central Arkansas in each team's Southland Conference opener Sept. 22.
The Bearkats lost 17-6 to North Dakota State in the title game last year, but return many of their top players, including running back Timothy Flanders, who had 1,662 yards on the ground and 22 touchdowns.
