    Haven't gotten any emails other than the confirmation. So we have to request the locations of the seats?

    Did UT-OU not make the list? I also wonder how the TV ratings would be affected if UT was actually any good this year. It's no coincidence that the highest rated games were those shown on public tv channels.

    The Coogs get the TV ratings in Houston, but what about in other cities? Do people in other cities tune in to see the Coogs play? And, is a team like BYU more of a draw nationally than UH, and should that even matter to a P5 conference?

    3 Houston games
    3 A&M games
    2 Texas games
    5 Non-A&M SEC games
    4 non-Texas Big 12 games
    1 Big 10 game
    1 ACC game
    1 Big 10 vs Pac 12 game

    Interesting that Houston-Memphis on ESPN2 outdrew all but six Big 12 telecasts this year.

    That's pretty crazy considering a lot of people are cord cutting.

    2016 recruiting class is sick. Absolutely sick.

    We've been chasing Cleveland since we got Oliver.

    Huge addition.

    Looks like we're going to be stacked at WR. Can't wait. We get Ayers and Allen back and add three 4-star dudes in Cleveland, Lark, and Samples.

    This is incredible. ESPN currently has our class ranked ahead of schools like UT and OU. Go COOGS!
