The football team will be honored by mayor, and UH alumnus, Sylvester Turner on Feb. 1 at Legends Plaza outside of TDECU Stadium at 6 p.m.
The ceremony will celebrate the Cougars’ 13-1 season and their victory in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl at the plaza before moving into Hofheinz Pavilion for the men’s basketball game against the eighth-ranked Southern Methodist University Mustangs.
“What a glorious ride the Cougars gave Houston football fans in 2015,” Turner said in a new release. “It was exciting to watch my alma mater rack up win after win against tough teams. I was overwhelmed with pride at the championship performance of coach Tom Herman and his dedicated team.
