Houston Cougars Season In Review

While some college football squads saw program highs and others hit rock bottom, the Houston Cougars had one of the most confusing seasons in the college football landscape.

The Cougars started off the season as one of the hottest teams in the country with a 5-0 start and a win over no. 3 Oklahoma in the opening weekend. This caused many college football fans to mark their calendars for the showdown in November against Louisville which was essentially a College Football Playoff play-in game. There were no problems in Houston until the Cougars hit a major mid-season slump.
