Houston Rocking

I just wonder if this coach kissing players is going to catch on.

Still can't sell out a 40K stadium in the soon-to-be-3rd-largest-city in America. Joke

I know that you probably mean "on a regular basis," but there was a crowd of over 42,800 at the L'ville game. TDECU holds 40,000.

What's not being mentioned in houston's losses were some key players missing.

Yeah, that part's not sexy enough to get much attention. Not to mention that we played 4 games in 20 days or something like that when we had two Thursday and two Saturday games in 4 weeks. (I hadn't originally noticed that, but someone on ESPN pointed it out after the SMU game.) It's much more fun for CollegeFootballLand to call us overrated paper tigers and laugh at us for losing to SMU. Yes, we really should have beaten the Ponies. I was at that game and it was very difficult to watch. We did not even field the same team that lost to Navy. The guys just looked lackluster and unprepared, and it showed. On television, unfortunately. *facepalm*

I love my Coogs, but we have been both overrated and underrated this year. It happens. I have taught my boys that anything can happen in college football, and every season, multiple teams prove that to be correct. The occasional unpredictability is one of the reasons we love the game.

But Thursday's game is over and the W is in the books. It's time to wear green and head to Apogee this afternoon. See y'all there. GMG.

Eh, I'm happy for any G5 program not named SMU or UTSA to have that kind of success. It keeps ALL of us in the conversation and delays the eventual Division 4 just a little bit longer.
