Week 0 gave us our first real evidence of what these leagues may look like in 2026.

The Southland Conference looked deeper than expected with HCU beating No. 19 Southeastern Louisiana, Lamar University Football knocking off No. 15 ACU, SFA Football opening with a road conference win and UTRGV Athletics destroying DII No. 18 UTPB.

The Lone Star Conference had a much rougher weekend. WT, Angelo State, UTPB and Kingsville all left with questions, while MSU Mustangs quietly put together one of the league’s better performances.

ACU Sports has a quarterback decision to make, and Tarleton State Football showed both the talent and the growing pains that come with a heavily rebuilt roster.

What was your biggest takeaway from Week 0?

This is an amazing play. Georgia Military QB Caden McGatha threw this ball around 54 yards in the air, and Walker Todd somehow caught this ball on a play that possibly had two penalties on Trinity Valley. One for roughing the passer and another for pass interference.

Question for everyone! I’m curious how many people would be interested in watching a Non-FBS recap show focused primarily on Texas teams in the Southland, SWAC, UAC, LSC, ASC, SAA, SCAC, Sooner Athletic, and SWJCFC. The show will cover all scores from these conferences, with select highlights. We would discuss national top-25 scores in FCS, DII, DIII, NAIA, and NJCAA, as available.

The show would start at 11 p.m. and be available on Substack, YouTube, and Facebook. Please let me know if you would be interested in watching this.

Holy Houston Christian.

The Huskies opened 2026 with a 34-28 road win over Southeastern Louisiana, while West Texas A&M opened a season filled with playoff expectations by falling 52-21 to Western Colorado.

On Episode 18, we’re digging into what the box scores tell us about both games, where the disconnect might be at WT, what Texas Wesleyan learned against a strong Division II opponent and a huge opening night for the UAC.

We’ll also discuss East Texas A&M’s new jersey patch deal, the changing Lone Star Conference, ETAMU sending three head coaches skydiving for a fundraiser and everything coming this weekend.

What was your biggest takeaway from Thursday night?

You know it’s embarrassing for the home team when the visiting team players are taunting your student section because Western Colorado leads West Texas A&M 24-0, and it’s not even halftime.
