The Bobcats look to end their losing streak with a road win against the Warhawks – The University Star

Texas State football is coming off two straight conference losses to Old Dominion and Louisiana-Lafayette, respectively. Both games were within reach for the Bobcats, but they couldn’t get it done in the home stretch. They look to win their final two games this weekend against the University of Louisiana-Monroe.

The Warhawks also suffered two straight conference losses to South Alabama and Marshall.

Texas State is 1-1 on the road this season and will look to improve to 2-1 on Saturday.

“We have to match their energy; “It’s going to be a big game for them,” Texas State head coach GJ Kinne said. “I know they’re counting on it, so we have to take it away from them.”

Texas State comes into the game having struggled on both ends in recent weeks.

“The last two weeks have not been up to our standard,” Kinne said. “We have to look at ourselves as coaches and players and figure out where we can get better.”

Redshirt senior quarterback Jordan McCloud is questionable for Saturday’s game against ULM. McCloud is battling an ankle injury suffered in the loss to Louisiana, and according to GJ Kinne, his status for Saturday is a mid-game decision.

“You have to go out there and prove it every week,” Kinne said. “Things aren’t always going to go your way, you’re going to face adversity, but you have to be able to recover and respond and that’s one thing about our guys: I know they know how you do that.”

Kickoff between Texas State and Louisiana-Monroe is scheduled for 11 a.m. Saturday, November 9th at Malone Stadium in Monroe, Louisiana. The game will be shown on ESPNU.
