Houston’s defense, special teams fuels 24-14 win over Tulsa

Houston spoiled Tulsa’s senior night at H.A. Champion Stadium, picking up their second American Athletic Conference win of the season in 24-14 fashion.

UH, who entered the contest 3-7 and 1-5 in-conference, left Oklahoma with a 4-7 record and 2-5 in in the AAC. Tulsa dropped to 3-8 and 1-6, standing alone at the bottom of the American West standings.

Though the Cougars did not have a bowl game to play for, head coach Dana Holgorsen’s squad played with fire on the night, with the defense and special teams leading the way.
