Houston Cougars Football Thread

as an alum I have to say this schedule is pathetic!!!!

Was conducting "business" in the third ward.

Stadium looks good.

 

To care more about the schedule than the record, you must not be that old an alum.

 

Looks like the same schedule we'd have in CUSA.

 

First off I am an "old alum" and have been following UH since '68 and that is why I do care about the schedule. I could care less about beating teams like Tenn Tech. This out of conference schedule next yr is one of the worst I've ever seen them have.

 

Cougar fan all my life (though my degree is actually from UHCL)...But this schedule blows. The "marquee" home game is UCF. I think Tenn Tech is because we needed a game and we have scheduled Texas Tech for the future...but this is pretty unimpressive considering with all the starters we are returning we could give a top tier team a good game.

 

I think Mack Rhoades is mainly a fundraising guy. They recently hired the athletic director from Coastal Carolina to be "associate vice president and chief operating officer."

Judging by the two comments, he seemed popular at Coastal Carolina

 

I thought we were gonna play Louisville

 

Ohhh nvm that was for 2015 & 2016- http://www.fbschedules.com/2013/10/...hedule-2015-16-home-and-home-football-series/

Between May 12 and Aug. 15, sections of Cullen Boulevard are scheduled to undergo major rehabilitation. This process will entail replacing sections of the street’s concrete on Cullen Boulevard between Elgin Street and Wheeler Avenue. Panels of concrete will be broken out of the street. New concrete will be poured and allowed time to cure. The result of this intensive process, Krueger said, will be “significantly improved street conditions.” Another positive outcome will include enhanced pedestrian accessibility at key intersections.

 

So does this mean that pigs can fly now?

We are close to buying out the game vs Tennessee Tech this season and replacing it with UNLV. That would be much better even though our OOC would still be bad. We would play them before having a bye week against UCF.
