Have the Bobcats turned a corner?

After the win against McNeese State, the question begs to be asked: "Have the Bobcats turned a corner?"

Texas State went into a hostile environment and dominated the Cowboys until the fourth quarter. The Bobcats were handling the third-ranked team in the Football Championship Subdivision.

Throughout the game, Texas State swarmed the ball on defense and made Derrick Fourroux's day difficult. The Bobcats forced three fumbles, recovering two and limited McNeese's vaunted offense.

Before the fourth quarter, Texas State held a 38-20 lead. When the Bobcats scored to open up the final period, they were up 45-20 and cruising to victory. Texas State's defense slacked a little bit, allowing the Cowboys to score 22-unanswered points, but hey, it earned the hard-fought win.

So, do you think the Bobcats have turned the corner? Is Texas State the team to beat in the Southland Conference? The question will be answered this Saturday when UCA comes to town.
