Welcome
The Houston Cougars travel to Denton, TX to help the University of North Texas open their brand spanking new Apogee Stadium. How or why the Coogs were invited to open up is unknown to me. Hopefully though it is a glimpse into the future of the Cougars. With $60 million of $80 million needed to break ground pledges, the Cougars hope to soon open a new stadium too.
There's really not much to say about the game except the Cougars can't afford a let down. The betting line is 21.5 in favor of the Coogs. Under former coach Todd Dodge, the Mean Green were a complete mess. Dodge was fired midseason after a 1-6 start. The Green finished 3-9 under interim head coach Darryl Dickey.
A new stadium, a new coach, same old results. UNT dropped the opener to FIU 41-6.
After a big game against UCLA, the Coogs should breeze to an easy victory. The main thing is to avoid a let down, get a big lead and get the starters out of there to rest and avoid injury.
Not much more to add but Go Coogs!
