Not good look for Houston, barely beat a 1-11 team from last year but the AAC is so soft they could still have a winning record.

Temple lost to FCS Villanova 19 to 17! P6 Baby!

unbelievable but but but they’re going get a 500% increase in their TV contract! I predict another meltdown on their board when TV contract comes in

Well, it looks like Rice is going to lose this one but they played a hell of a game today. Talk about a completely different team from last week.

Terrible PI call

Temple was predicted to compete for AAC east and that still could happen.

As we have seen against AAC bowl teams that conference is extremely soft, and a terrible team such as SMU can winning record in the AAC

The spread was 26. Houston is pathetic.

Not necessarily. Maybe Houston just took 'em too lightly in the first half after Rice's struggles last week. Been a 28-3 2nd half, which is more along the lines of what everyone expected.

The AAC owns NY6 wins against Baylor, Florida State, and Auburn. Remind me what CUSA has done? I must have missed it.

Iam holding my breath and you should too because if the AAC gets big TV money it will be good for all g5 conferences as a trickle down effect, MWC is second in line for a big TV pay check and so on
Get it, got it, good

We also missed 3FGs and our starting QB was out for parts of the 2nd half. I was surprised it took UH so long to throw downfield. The real UH is going to do the same to us next week and probably beat us by more.

Big positives- our very young Oline looked pretty good. Bloomgren has a reputation as one of the best offensive line coaches in the country and so far I don’t see anything to dispute that.
Stuck to our game plan and the same talent we had last year was beating UH late in the 3rd. Last year UH was up 38-0 at half. Coaching makes a huge difference.

Negatives- Neither QB is going to go out and win us a game.
Our DBs are a weak link. Just like they have been for 10 years with the exceptions of Gaines and Callahan who were starting NFL talent.
