Things to look for ahead of Tulane matchup

The No.24 Houston Cougars (5-0) enter this week’s game against Tulane University (2-3) after cruising to a comfortable win against Southern Methodist University last week. These are factors to look for as they take on the Green Wave who were crushed by Temple University in a 49-10 loss last week.

With injuries to the offensive line, how will they affect UH’s potent offensive attack?

Senior offensive lineman Damien Parris should be able to fill the void at right tackle while senior offensive lineman Alex Cooper will fill in at the right tackle position. Tulane’s defense is mediocre but, their pass rush is somewhat disruptive, led by Royce LaFrance who racked up three sacks in an earlier game against the University of Central Florida.
