Houston is probably a one year wonder, just like Tulsa will be....Rice is a surprise team this year...QB and RB's(2nd in the land in rushing last year) return not to mention a WR in Battle that is a big play maker...Rice also should be vastly improved on defense, at least in the secondary...Houston still has good players in the skilled positions on Offense, but they only return 2 on the O Line...Last years Huge O Line was a main reason for their success on the ground and through the air...This year seems their lack of dominance up front for the Cougars will catch up to them...But of course its still early in the year and team and players can all mature fast to turn things around...JMO.
