Houston football is ready to embark on its second year in the Big 12 and its first year with head coach Willie Fritz at the helm. The Cougar’s schedule combines difficult opponents, tactical possibilities and important rivalries that will test the team’s commitment. After going 2-7 in 2023 conference play and 4-8 overall, the Cougars will look to make a mark in 2024.
The Cougars kick off non-conference play against UNLV on Aug. 31, and hope to set a positive tone for the remainder of the campaign. The first home game of the season will provide an early evaluation of the team’s readiness and areas that require development.
