Description

Sam Houston just crawled through a 2–10 football season, so it’s time for the annual March 2 The Pod report card. Ben and Cory go position by position and hand out honest grades for the 2025 Bearkats — quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, offensive line, defensive line, linebackers, defensive backs, special teams, and yes, head coach Phil Longo. We talk about where things completely fell apart, who actually earned passing marks, and what absolutely has to change in 2026 if Longo wants to quiet the noise in Huntsville.

Before we dive into the carnage, we start with something a little more fun: Bearkat hoops. The men are fresh off a win over Wyoming and a tough nonconference slate against Texas Tech, Utah, and Oklahoma State, and they still haven’t lost against the spread. We break down why this group is built for March in C-USA, touch on the women’s impressive start, and then close the show with our made-up betting line and score predictions for Sam Houston at Texas Southern.
