HUNTSVILLE, Texas -- Ty Brock threw for 320 yards with Dee Bowens hauling in eight passes for 155 yards and a score and Kyran Jackson ran for three touchdowns as Sam Houston State got past Southeastern Louisiana 28-25 on Saturday afternoon.

Southeastern Louisiana (3-6, 3-4) closed to 14-10 at the break. Jackson bulled across from the 2 in the third and broke for an 11-yard score early in the fourth for a 28-10 lead.

The Lions closed to 28-25 after Devonte Williams and Chason Virgil both crashed in from the 1. Virgil passed to Bransen Schwebel for a two-point conversion with 2:59 remaining for the final score.

Virgil threw for 274 yards and a score but was picked off twice.
