The move comes as no surprise after the Cougars started their 2020-21 season with three wins in as many games while winning all of them by double-digits.
The biggest victory came on Sunday against then No. 14 Texas Tech, which entered the game 2-0. UH jumped out to as much as a 20-point lead against the Red Raiders, and were able to hang on to the big lead.
