Coming into the season, the Houston defensive line felt like something special was brewing among their position group.

As a unit, the Cougars’ defensive line wanted to brand the group with some sort of name that would let the country know what they are all about.

After conversing amongst each other, the group decided on a name that would strike fear into opposing quarterbacks’ eyes.

“We call ourselves Sack Avenue,” junior defensive lineman Derek Parish said. “We’re always (wanting) to live up to that name and title.”

Of course, the Cougars’ defensive line knew that they needed some swag if they were going to call themselves Sack Avenue.
