Texas State is not leaving the Sun Belt Conference “at this time,” according to a statement issued by the school late Tuesday. The Bobcats had been contemplating a move to the Mountain West, according to multiple reports. The school acknowledged “preliminary discussions with an interested conference,” but elected not to make a move.

After last week’s loss, Texas State football will open Sun Belt Conference play on the road against the Troy Trojans in its first official road test. The Bobcats are on a two-game losing streak after giving up back-to-back double-digit leads,
