For better or worse, UH set to finally see return of college football to campus

By the time UH kicks off against the UNT Mean Green on Saturday evening, it will have been 301 days since the Cougars played an official game inside TDECU Stadium.

In between that time, class semesters have come and gone, the XFL’s Roughnecks went 3-0 at TDECU Stadium before having their season abruptly pulled, and the coronavirus pandemic changed life as we knew it for the foreseeable future.

During that same period, and most recently, the UH football team has also had four different potential season openers get postponed or canceled, which has made them have to wait nearly an extra month to play a game.
