USF is still searching for the first conference win of the Jeff Scott era. Their search leads them to Houston to take on the Cougars and their all-everything quarterback coming off a nice easy redshirt year, D’Eriq King. What? He transferred after redshirting last year? Are you saying that move may have backfired immensely? Oh…Regardless, Houston has a talented offense and an aggressive defense.
While it seemed like Dana Holgerson and co. would thrive in a year where every player gets a redshirt, Houston has actually struggled this season. They came out of the gates strong with a win against a decent Tulane team and went on the road to beat Navy.
