The final score was twenty-one to seventeen, with Sam Houston State scoring only seven offensive points. The rest of their points came from a kick return touchdown and a blocked punt returned for a touchdown, emphasizing special teams struggles for the Beavers.This unexpected loss was primarily due to a special teams collapse and missed opportunities on offense. However, several players delivered exceptional performances that the team will need to replicate in their final two games of the season.

Junior linebacker Aiden Sullivan also shone, making five solo tackles and two tackles for loss, showcasing great speed and consistency in the middle of the defense.Meanwhile, LSU transfer Tygee Hill on the defensive line continued his strong play, causing chaos on Sam Houston States offensive line and helping limit them to just seventy-two rushing yards. Defensive back Jalil Tucker also stood out with impressive pass breakups in the second half, contributing to a fantastic overall performance by the Beavers secondary.Despite the tough loss, these individual performances offer a glimpse of the talent on the team. The Beavers will look to build on these strong showings as they prepare for their remaining two matchups, hoping to finish the season on a positive note.The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story.
