Sophomore quarterback Clayton Tune made his first start of the season for the Cougars in the 46-25 win. | Trevor Nolley/The CougarSeveral Cougars stood out in Houston’s 46-25 win over North Texas on Saturday night at Apogee Stadium in Denton, breathing new life into a UH team that went into the game coming off a shocking loss to Tulane and without its star quarterback.
The Cougars, now sitting at 2-3 after their first FBS win of the season against the Mean Green, did not outgain their opponent in total yards on offense, but held its own on defense.
Houston held North Texas to only 96 yards rushing and tallied eight tackles for a loss for 27 yards.
