Bearkats announce roster for spring game
Sam Houston State head football coach Todd Whitten and his staff have decided to shake things up this year by going with a different format for the annual Orange and White Game on Saturday at Bowers Stadium.
In the past, the Orange and White Game, which brings to an end five weeks of offseason workouts, has pitted the first-team offense against the first-team defense. This year, the coaching staff decided to split the teams evenly hoping to better evaluate players battling for spots on the depth chart.
“What we are trying to do is have the two teams split evenly because on the team we have some jobs up for grabs,” Whitten said Wednesday afternoon. “I just wanted it to be a little bit more even so we can evaluate things better. Sometimes when you have the first-team offense versus the first-team defense, it might give one side a little bit of an advantage.
