Rhett Bomar focusing on future with Sam Houston State
September 21 , 2007
For Sam Houston State quarterback Rhett Bomar, the focus is the future.
After 18 months, the junior from Grand Prairie is back playing football and excited about it.
“It was great to get back into a game situation,” Bomar said after the Bearkats' 2007 season opener against Angelo State . “I can't really explain it. I'm a competitive person and it's been awhile. I missed it. After I got hit the first time, that kind of woke me up. I haven't been hit in awhile.”
In the Angelo State season opener, Bomar started with an incomplete pass, then an interception. But he bounced back, completing his next 10 passes in a row. He ended the game with 204 yards passing including a 64-yard touchdown strike.
“You can simulate all you want in practice, but it's not the same. Coming out and throwing an interception, that wasn't too good. But stuff like that happens and you have to come back from that. The offense responded,” Bomar said. “We won our first two games and came close to beating a good North Dakota State team on their home turf where they haven't lost in three years. We've got a good team and have the opportunity to accomplish some things.”
