Great job by the defense! They adjusted well to that triple option. Got some BIG stops when they had to have 'em. I doubt many Coog fans would have believed that the D would win this bowl game. CUSA is now 3-1 in bowls.
I was also disappointed after the Rice loss, but this is probably the strongest team they've had in decades, and they had more senior talent in key positions than we did. They were just the better team this year, but we'll be back next season.
Watching a game where one team runs the option successfully is frustrating. Everyone in the stadium knows they're going to run the ball but no one can stop it.

Just got back. Great win for the Houston team. I'm glad I got the saw UH break its bowl win drought. This is a great young team and they're going to be great for the next two years. Keenum for Heisman in 2009!
It was great to finally win one of these games. Air Force is a tough team to defend because not only do they run the triple option so well, but they aren't bad throwing the ball either. Its amazing to be dominated in time of possession 2-1 and still win. I want to go to the Liberty Bowl and win next year a win over a SEC team would make the locals stand up and take notice.
Great win for the home team. We have a lot to look forward to in the next couple of seasons. Most of the team are underclassmen and this win is a learning experience for everyone including our first year head coach.
me and six buddies stayed in downtown dallas and then drove to fort worth for the game...it was an awesome experience, good thing that we won too, otherwise the drive home would have sucked
