Houston Cougars

I can't get the game but it looks like 21-10 Cougars going into the half. Looks like Keenum and Beall are on the case today. :whip:

Yeah, the Coogs are having there way with the Purple Pirate defense. If it wasn't for a pick in the red zone and a missed FG this game is 31-10 at the half.
 
Coogs win 41-24!

624 total yards
Keenum with 397 yards passing and 3 tds.
Beall with 131 yards rushing.
 
So ECU takes down Virginia Tech & West Virginia, but can't handle NC St or Houston?...

Gotta love college football.

and USF struggled mightily with FIU of all teams, then annihilates that NC State team on the road. tis a crazy game
 
The only team in Texas to beat a ranked opponent? Not UT, not Tech. UH.

Anyway, looking forward to the long homestand starting mid-October. And Edwards pissed me off so much with his fumbles, I didn't hear the 2nd half.
 
Coogs kicked butt!! Even with 4 turnovers. Case Keenum was lights out.

That was the first ranked team the Coogs beat in 12 years.
 
They won't play us its pretty simple. Their basketball coach said they would play us only at their place no home and home. Maggard won't do a deal like that and I dont blame him.
 
Why don't we play UT anymore? They have no problem playing Rice or Lousianna Tech


** before you longhorn fans blow your tops, i'm not claiming that U of H would beat them on a regular basis...if very much at all **

But c'mon, Looking at their non-conference schedule every year, it seems pretty obvious to me. U of H isn't exactly a perennial power but we're not pushovers either & he knows that the Texas/UH old SWC matchups were far more intense & thereby riskier than the Rice one ever was; Mack would just rather not risk getting an early loss by playing us every year...can't really say i blame him in light of his conference opponents.

I'm sure he justifies playing Rice every year b/c they were one of the SWC charter members, but most know what his main objective is when he schedules 3 cupcakes & 1 decent team every year for non conference.

He'd rather see Rice than us or a TCU every year b/c he knows that it's a safer play & he still gets his houston market as far as recruits go by making that annual trip here.

This goes for Texas A&M too, there is no way we shouldn't be playing each other once a year.

They will not play UofH because of recruiting reasons and money; it is just that simple. TU, A&M and TT did not want UofH in the big 12 because it would hurt recruiting because the Coogs were not that far removed from the Andre Ware and David Klingler era when they had good teams and records. Also, there was a lot of hard feelings among a lot of the old SWC guys when Jenkins was coach and he tried to put 100 points up on teams.

Now the money part of it? If TU played at UofH it would generate more money for the Coogs and they could not have that.

yeah..this too. Damn you Anne Richardson!!!!!
 
Coogs play UAB at the Rob Thursday night. If you can't make it out there the game will be televised on CBSCS. Thats CBS College Sports or formally known as CSTV.
 
If you would like to see a football team with the word Houston in it that has a pulse and a heartbeat and a great QB, come out to the Rob and see the Cougars play.
