Q&A: Cougars face toughest challenge yet in Memphis Tigers

The match up we’ve all been waiting for, and the conference rival that the Houston football team has been patiently eyeing since the start of the season, is here.

Before losing to the United States Naval Academy, conference-foe University of Memphis was the only other team in the American Athletic Conference who remained undefeated overall.

Now that Houston is the lone survivor, the Tigers will look to snap the Cougars’ winning streak inside TDECU Stadium this Saturday.

The Cougar spoke with Omer Yusuf, sports editor and Memphis beat writer for The Daily Helmsman, about whether or not the Tigers can put an end to Houston’s perfect season.
