HC Brian Bohannon Weekly Presser Previewing San Jose State
We're ready to play another good football team, another bowl team that's won a lot of games. Obviously, (Ken) Niumatalolo is their head coach. He and I are good friends, lived down the street from each other for six years at the Naval Academy. They played two games, opened at Sacramento State. A lot of momentum changes, then San Jose pulled away late.

Louisiana HC Michael Desormeaux Weekly Presser Previewing KSU
This is a good football team. They’ve got a lot of guys back. They look like a really good Group of Five football team. They’ve got guys who run around and strike and play physical. Overlooking anyone is not going to happen. They’re in a lot of heavy sets. Now they do have a lot of option elements to it, but it’s a lot of zone-read option. They’ll do some power read and stuff like that.

This can work, and it can work right away. Jacksonville State was one of the more pleasant surprises in 2023 moving up from the FCS to FBS status. Sam Houston might be the comp, though, for KSU. An FCS power, prepped for the move up...then …a rough year with 0-8 start. Then wins in three of the last four. That might mirror Kennesaw State in its first run.
