Henry Belin IV led Missouri State to a 24-3 victory over Sam Houston in a Conference USA matchup held at Sprinfield, Missouri on Tuesday night. Belin completed 184 yards and two touchdowns through the air, while Isaiah Myers and Jmariyae Robinson each scored on touchdown catches. The decisive play came in the fourth quarter when Robinson made a 37-yard catch over the middle, stiff-arming Jace Arnold twice to extend Missouri State's lead to 17-3.

Sam Houston fumbled on a punt return later in the quarter, and the Bearkats capitalized with a 1-yard touchdown run by Connor Lair with 3:44 remaining. The defense broke up a fourth-down pass attempt with 1:08 left to prevent Sam Houston from scoring. Isaiah Myers and Connor Lair were the team's leading runners, with Myers contributing 77 yards on three catches and Lair rushing for 75 yards.

The Bearkats (3-5, 2-2 Conference USA) had not faced Sam Houston (1-7, 0-4) since 2006, as they last played against each other in the non-conference level when both teams were at the FCS level. Sam Houston will next play Jacksonville State on November 7, while Missouri State travels to Florida International for their next game on the same date.
