Sam Houston Bearkats Tickets

The Sam Houston Bearkats represent Sam Houston State University in NCAA Division I athletics. Known for a storied football program and a passionate fan base, the Bearkats compete to win on every field and court. Football has moved to Conference USA since 2023, and all 2025 home games are scheduled at Shell Energy Stadium in Houston due to renovations at Bowers Stadium. Led by head coach Phil Longo, named in December 2024, SHSU continues to build on a rich history that includes a national championship, historic rivalries, and a commitment to excellence across sports. Whether you’re a longtime Bearkat supporter or new to the program, we’ve got you covered for tickets, schedules, and the latest updates across SHSU athletics.

Rising from a proud history that includes the 2020-21 FCS National Championship (23-21 over South Dakota State in Frisco) and the 1964 NAIA national co-championship (shared with Concordia, MN), the Bearkats have a tradition of competitive spirit. The Battle of the Piney Woods rivalry with Stephen F. Austin remains a Texas staple, showcasing intense, community-driven matchups. For 2025, anticipate a robust schedule with high-profile non-conference games against teams like Oklahoma State (OSU) and UNLV, and continue following official channels for the latest results and tickets.
