The Cougars need multiple players to step up Saturday if they want to bounce back after a loss to Texas Tech, which broke their 16-game home win streak at TDECU Stadium last Saturday.
The offense was a key component to their loss against the Red Raiders, but the defense allowed over 500 yards against head coach Kliff Kingburry’s spread attack. This week, they take on the Temple Owls at Century Link field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Cougars can take advantage of the Owls lackluster offense and defense.
If Houston can get key players to not only do their job, but also motivate the team, it might be enough to claim a victory Saturday.
