Can you feel the excitement surrounding Rice football!

Less sarcastically, it seems like moving these to noon at a bar would inevitably lead to lower attendance. Who wants to hear about Rice football without drinking, and who can drink at noon on a Thursday? Some people, perhaps, but not as many as holding them in the evening.

If Bailiff doesn't show up, can JP just interview you the whole time? 100% coach-speak would be the preferred vernacular.

I could, all the way through my undergrad years.

Now, not so much. In fact, never.

But if I lived in Houston, I would likely be there. Drinking water.

Glad to cover for all who could not be there.

FIU's pass defense is currently 5th worst in NCAA Div 1. Alcorn got 191 yards on 22 completions from 34 attempts.

Go Owls!! Take advantage!
