This morning, the Cal Poly football team learned their postseason fate. And it will take them ::clap clap clap clap:: deep in the heart of Texas.
The Good:
In their first season in the Big Sky Conference, a share of the conference title got Cal Poly through into the second round of play, giving them two weeks to prepare and get healthy. This should especially benefit the offensive line.
The Bad:
No home game. Cal Poly’s second-round game will be played in Huntsville, TX vs. the Sam Houston State Bearkats. While the Mustangs are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2008, Alex G. Spanos Stadium is due to stay quiet for the rest of the season, barring a monumental upset. Huntsville, TX is about 75 minutes North of Houston.
Good thing Cal Poly won:
Cal Poly wrapped up its regular season schedule yesterday with a solid victory at Northern Arizona. There was talk of the Lumberjacks getting an at-large bid as well, but it looks like that didn’t happen, despite the Big Sky’s lobbying.
Who are they playing?
Sam Houston State has three losses on the year – 2 of them to Big-12 and SEC schools. The Bearkats actually started the season 1-2. They were downed by Baylor early in the season and then lost at Central Arkansas the following week. After reeling off seven consecutive wins, they lost to 9th ranked Texas A&M and Heisman hopeful Johnny Manziel this past week by a respectable score of 47-28. In the Sagarin Rankings, Sam Houston State is slotted at number 6, with Cal Poly right behind them in 7th.
