A conference matchup in Week 0? That’s right, Sam Houston State takes on Western Kentucky in Conference USA play on Saturday night.

In a very rare Week 0 conference matchup, Sam Houston State takes on Western Kentucky in Conference USA action on Saturday night. This matchup pits one of the top projected teams in the conference against an encouraging sleeper team. After reaching but losing in the C-USA Championship last year, the Hilltoppers once again come into the season with high expectations. The C-USA did not do a coaches’ poll this year, instead having a panel of 24 SIDs and media members pick as many teams as they thought would make a bowl game, calling it the Bowl Confidence Index. Western Kentucky was one of two schools to receive 100% of the votes, along with defending champion Liberty.

Meanwhile Sam Houston State came in fifth in the poll receiving 45.83% of the vote. The Bearkats’ second season at the FBS level was a promising one. After going 3-9 in their first season after the elevation they went 10-3 last year, including a win in their first ever bowl appearance in the New Orleans Bowl.

With the success the team had last year, longtime head coach K.C. Keeler left to take the head coaching job at Temple. Now Phil Longo will be tasked with continuing the momentum. Longo was previously the Bearkats’ offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach from 2014 to 2016. He’s since held the same job with Ole Miss, North Carolina, and most recently Wisconsin before returning to Huntsville.
