Bye week comes at right time for Kats
SHSU looking to make improvements, get healthy during break

Sam Houston State’s bye week couldn’t have come at a better time following a very physical matchup with No. 4 North Dakota State last weekend.
The Bearkats have several players nursing injuries sustained in last Saturday’s 41-38 loss to the Bison in Fargo, N.D. Starting safety Byran Richmond (separated shoulder), wide receivers Justin Wells (concussion) and Darnell Jones (foot) and backup tight end Josh Brown (knee) did not take part in practice this week.
SHSU also has several other players banged up, but they were able to practice in shorts.
The Bearkats have another week to rest up and get ready for a road trip to Stillwater, Okla., to face Oklahoma State on Sept. 29.
“There is no question, the game last Saturday was probably the most physical game we have played in a real long time,” SHSU head coach Todd Whitten said Thursday.
