    Not sure. They never showed a replay in the stadium either. But there were so many legit pass interferences that didn't get called I didn't mind them finally calling one. Felt like most of the calls were going Memphis' way all night.

    I'm still in disbelief.

    That was a game people will remember for ages.

    Three of the greatest comebacks in college football history, all in the last 5 years, haven been given to you by these Houston Cougars. What an adrenaline rush! Think about it, down 28 to La Tech with 14 minutes left, Keenum throws off his back foot to the back of the end zone to complete a furious 4th quarter comeback and nearly impossible, improbable victory, 35-34. Then there is Armed Forces Bowl, where the Cougars scored 22 unanswered in the final 6 minutes on a rain slickened field, rallying with not one, but two on sides kicks and a gutsy 2 point conversion to sting the Panthers for you guessed it, a 35-34 miracle. And then the cherry on top, where Houston's undefeated season was on the line, down 20 in the 4th quarter against a ranked Memphis Tiger team with a NFL quarterback, without their Heisman trophy candidate and leader, and with barely a pulse, a wide receiver steps in at quarter back and leads them back from the depths of defeat, and having been left for dead on the doortstep, to a 35-34 comeback win. This ladies and gentleman, is Houston Cougars football!!

    I was going to post this earlier today. Even more amazing is the fact that all 3 scores were the same. Lesson : if you're an opposing team, don't get stuck with a 34-anything lead on these Cougars - you'll probably end up losing 35-34. lol.

    Coogs learned their lesson from the Chicken Soup Bowl. Guess what the score was from that game lol.
