Homecoming game against Temple crucial for Houston

Houston returns to action Saturday night against the Temple Owls at 6 p.m. at TDECU Stadium and will be looking to rebound from its loss to SMU.

Houston still controls its ability to reach the American Athletic Conference Championship Game on Dec. 1, and a win against Temple is crucial for Major Applewhite’s team. The Owls are coming off a loss against No. 11 UCF.

UH will be led by its athletic junior quarterback D’Eriq King, who has 2578 passing yards this season, ranking him No. 1 in the conference and No. 13 in the nation.
