The Rice Owls are in a tough spot on Thursday night. They have lost their last two games and are out of it in Conference USA. Last year they jumped up and bit the Cougars at home but the last time they visited Houston they gave up a whopping 73 points, losing by 59.
The AFC South is officially up for grabs this Sunday. Houston had a golden opportunity to distance itself from Tennessee last week with the Titans on the bye but couldn’t get the job done against a tough Baltimore team. The winner of this week’s Texans/Titans showdown will sit alone atop the division.
This is going to be a tough week for Marshall, especially on the road, but thanks to a home upset of Southern Miss, they are currently at the top of the Conference USA East division standings.
Houston quarterback Matt Schuab will be going into Sunday’s game against the Oakland Raiders (2-2) without star wide receiver Andre Johnson. This development is a real test for the Texans (3-1) who have been having a great season that’s rested largely on Johnson’s shoulders.
Even if you’re a casual MMA fan, you won’t want to miss UFC 136 this Saturday night. One of the most stacked cards in while features two title fights, including the rematch between Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard following their draw last January.
The Houston Cougars remain among the unbeaten teams across America after thumping Georgia State 56-0 last weekend. A win over an FCS opponent is hardly something to get overly excited about but quarterback Case Keenum continues to work his way up the all time passing list, passing former BYU QB Ty Detmer for third place all time.
The 2010 season didn’t go at all how the Houston Cougars had expected. The team was nationally ranked going into the season, but injuries derailed the season after just two games.

The Bears tried to kill themselves last week, showing even less imagination of offense than they normally do, but they stayed with it and took advantage of Packer mistakes to keep themselves alive for another week.
They also had some incredible luck.
Will that luck continue, as Chicago heads into the final week having to win, and hope for Minnesota and/or other teams to stumble?
