HUNTSVILLE, TX. — Tim Flanders was the main man when Sam Houston State built a 21-0 lead in the first quarter of its NCAA Division I Football Championship semifinal game Friday night against Montana at Bowers Stadium.

And Flanders was there again at the end when the Bearkats needed him to hang on to a 31-28 victory that vaulted SHSU into its first national title game in the Football Championship Subdivision.

Flanders rushed for a school-record 276 yards on 26 carries and one touchdown, but it was his 22-yard scamper on a fourth-and-one play from the Bearkat 48 in the final two minutes that clinched the victory for Sam Houston State.
