Bobcat basketball controls its own destiny...

By virtue of its 98-63 win Saturday afternoon and McNeese State's loss, Texas State is currently in eighth place in the Southland Conference. The Bobcats are one game up on the Cowboys and Southeastern Louisiana.

Texas State hosts Texas-San Antonio tomorrow night for senior night and wrap up the season in Huntsville against Sam Houston State. If the Bobcats win both games, they will walk into the SLC tournament.

The Roadrunners are 8-6 in the SLC and won their last game. SHSU leads the West Division with a 10-4 record.

Texas State can't afford to slip up, knowing McNeese's schedule is far easier than its own. The Cowboys wrap up with SE Louisiana and Central Arkansas.

If McNeese beats the Lions, it should cancel them out, leaving the Cowboys and the Bobcats to battle for the last spot. If Lamar somehow slips, it will leave three teams vying for two spots.

Game time is set for 7 p.m. tomorrow night.
