This season just keeps getting better and better.

Let me put it another way…this season just keeps getting better and better for CERTAIN teams. Houston, Texas A&M, Texas Southern, Sam Houston State…every week brings something new and usually great!

Rice and Texas? They would take just a little luck that is going in favor of their rivals.

Week 5 had a little bit of everything. In the national picture…we had 3, Top 10 matches two of which didn’t disappoint. Stanford apparently thought it was their off week. Those results are important to pay attention to because Houston’s own Coogs are right in the middle of it.

My take: If the Houston Cougars go undefeated, they should get in the playoff. No question about it.

As for specifics involving our local teams, here we go. Winners and losers time….
