A new era for Houston Athletics began to take shape on Feb. 8, 2013 when ground was officially broken on the Houston Football Stadium. Set to open in August of 2014, the state-of-the-art stadium will hold at least 40,000 with premium seating for 5,000 and a state-of-the-art synthetic turf designed to host a multitude of events.

With an exquisite view of the Houston skyline always visible in its northwest corner, the stadium will also house the Bert F. Winston Band and Performance Center on its east end. Designed by PageSoutherlandPage and the DLR Group, the stadium is being built by Manhattan Construction.

Please contact the Houston Athletics Communications Office to arrange all student-athlete interviews. The locker, training and weight rooms inside the Athletics/Alumni Center are off-limits to reporters.

The Houston Athletics Communications Office does not release student-athletes’ phone numbers.

be picked up through Friday on a game week at the Athletics Communications Office. Credentials not mailed or picked up will be held at media will call.

PHOTOGRAPHERSOnly accredited photographers on assignment from

recognized media outlets will be issued sideline credentials. No freelance photographers will be admitted to the sidelines.

All photographers must obtain and wear an armband (available in the press box on game days) and a media pass to shoot. NCAA rules limit shooting to outside the restraining line enclosing the playing field and outside the 25-yard lines (the team areas). Children under 16 years old are not permitted on the sideline.

The University of Houston is, and shall be, the sole owner of any and all copyrights, intellectual property rights and proprietary rights for images, sounds and data arising from or during Houston home athletics contests.

PARKINGSeparate parking passes WILL be needed to enter the

media parking lot (Teal Lot) at Reliant Stadium.

POSTGAME INTERVIEWSHouston maintains a closed-locker room policy. With

approximately five minutes remaining in the game, members of the media will be escorted to the field by a member of the Houston Athletics Communications Staff.

Each visiting team will set its own postgame interview policy, which will be announced in the fourth quarter.

Office can provide video highlights to networks and television stations through video coordinator Grantscott Greene.

Greene has editing and studio facilities inside the Athletics/Alumni Center and can reproduce highlights and other materials upon request.

CREDENTIALS All requests for working press, radio, television, photography or scouting credentials should be made online at www.sportssystems.com/Houston AT LEAST ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THE GAME. Season credential requests should be requested at least two weeks prior to the first game. Seating in the press box is for working media and scouts only. All space for the working press, radio and television is allocated by the Houston Athletics Communications Office, which reserves the right to deny credentials to any outlet. Spouses, dates, children, equipment carriers and non-workers are restricted from the press box, sidelines and locker rooms. Any abuse of a working credential will result in the media agency losing credential privileges.

Freelance and/or non-daily writers may be asked to produce copies of actual publications in which their work has appeared. Admission to the press box is by pass only.

ACCREDITATION GUIDELINES• Only full-time, salaried employees intending to provide actual game coverage may receive credentials.• A requesting media agency must represent a collective, organizational editorial voice, not simply the offerings of a single individual.• Membership in a writers’ association does not automatically qualify an agency for credentials.• A media agency may assign one of its credentials to its online entity.• An online entity, not associated with a traditional media agency, may qualify for one credential, subject to the following conditions:

1. An online entity may receive a credential only if its own full-time staff writes a majority of that site’s material.

2. Online entities that focus primarily on University of Houston Athletics and sponsor message boards or chat rooms, may receive credentials provided they adhere to a policy that requires that a posted message or opinion is identified with the actual name and city of the individual posting the message.

3. Any online service that is recognized as an outlet intended primarily for the purpose of delivering news related to the recruitment of student-athletes will not qualify for credentials.

4. Online entities (other than those identified above) registering 20,000 legitimate unique users per month in each of the past 12 months will be given first consideration.

LOOKING BACK AT 2012« Houston finished its final season in Conference USA and its final year in Robertson Stadium with a 5-7 record including a 4-4 mark in C-USA play.« Safety Trevon Stewart earned FWAA Freshman All-America honors while 13 total Cougars earned All-Conference USA honors.« Nine true freshmen played on the year and accounted for 27 starts.« With 45 points in its win over UTEP, Houston eclipsed the 35-point mark for the fifth straight game, a feat that had only been accom-plished two other times in program history - by the 2011 team (12 straight games to open the season) and the 1989 team (six straight games to end the season). « The 2012 senior class closed out its career in a tie for seventh for the most wins, 33, by a single class in a four-year period at the University of Houston.« Injuries hit the Houston program especially hard last season as members of the team’s two deep missed a combined 58 games this season due to injuries. Eight players suffered season-ending injuries and the team’s most valuable player, Charles Sims, was forced to miss three full games and the second half of three others.

LOOKING AHEAD TO 2013« Twenty-six full or part-time starters, not counting specialists, return in 2013. Among those are last year’s leaders in passing (David Piland), kick returns (Ryan Jackson), interceptions (Zach McMillian) and punting (Richie Leone).« The 12 opponents on the 2013 schedule combined for a record of 85-65 (.567), eight finished .500 or better, six won at least eight games including three with at least 10 wins and seven played in bowl games.« The program welcomes an incoming class of 26 that is comprised of 19 high school student-athletes, eight junior college transfers and two four-year transfers.« Five of the 26 newcomers enrolled in the program in January for spring workouts - DE Trevor Harris, WR D’Juan Hines, LB Elandon Roberts, LB Caleb Tucker and DB Turon Walker.

MOVING TO THE AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE« For the first time in 18 years, Houston will play in a different conference as it joins The American Athletic Conference in 2013.« One of four new programs in The American Athletic Conference, Houston will host Cincinnati, Memphis, SMU and USF while traveling to UCF, Louisville, Rutgers and Temple. Non-conference action will see UH face off against Southern, Rice, UTSA and BYU. Houston has never played three of the teams - BYU, Rutgers and UTSA.« Entering its 23rd season as a football-playing entity, The American Athletic Conference Conference holds its BCS automatic qualifier status for the 2013 season.

END OF CONFERENCE USA ERA« The 2012 season marked the end of Houston’s 17-year run as a member in Conference USA. Houston’s first year as a member came in 1996 as the Cougars recorded a 4-1 conference record. Houston finished its stint in C-USA with a 68-60 conference record in the 17-year span and an overall record of 103-104.« Houston never finished worse than third in the West Division of Conference USA after finishing in the top three in 2012.« C-USA title game participants in 2011, 2009 and 2006, Houston and Tulsa (2012, 2008, 2007, 2005) established a grip on the C-USA West crown. Only SMU (2010) advanced from the west to the C-USA title game in the game’s eight-year existence.« Houston ended its Conference USA stint with the second-best league record since 2005 when the conference split into two divi-sions. Over the last eight years since the divisional split, Houston accumulated a league record of 45-19 and an overall record of 65-39.

School C-USA Record Overall RecordTulsa 48-17 72-34Houston 45-19 65-39East Carolina 44-20 57-46UCF 43-22 60-44Southern Miss 36-28 57-45

SAYING GOODBYE TO ROBERTSON« Robertson Stadium, Houston’s home in 2012, is literally no more. Demolition on the 70-year old stadium began on Dec. 3, 2012, and the stadium was gone in three weeks.« Houston held its official groundbreaking for the Houston Football Stadium on Feb. 8. The 40,000-seat stadium is set to open August of 2014.« The Cougars finished 72-44-1 (.620) inside Robertson Stadium and were 36-9 (.800) dating back to 2006.« Houston will play four of its 2013 games at Reliant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Houston Texans, one at BBVA Compass Stadium, home of the MLS’ Houston Dynamo and one at Rice Stadium.

A WHOLE CAST OF CHARACTERS« The 2013 receiving corps will have no problem with familiarity of the Houston system as 10 of the top 13 receivers from 2012 return.« The 10 returning players who recorded a catch in 2012 combined for a total of 191 receptions for 2,410 yards and 17 touchdowns.

Receptions Yards TDsWhat Returns 191 (56.7%) 2,410 (61.2%) 17 (63.0%)What Was Lost 146 1,531 10

« The 2012 season saw 19 different Houston players record a recep-tion including eight players with at least 20 receptions and four with at least 37. At least seven different players had a reception in 11 of 12 games including 11 players with a catch vs. UAB.

Opponent # with a reception # with receiving TDs Texas State 8 1 Louisiana Tech 10 4 UCLA 7 0 Rice 7 2 North Texas 8 2 UAB 11 1 SMU 8 2 UTEP 8 2 East Carolina 10 4 Tulsa 8 1 Marshall 10 3Tulane 6 1

« Five players accounted for seven 100-yard receiving efforts last season as Dewayne Peace (141 vs. Louisiana Tech, 103 at UCLA, 101 vs. Tulane), Daniel Spencer (157 vs. Louisiana Tech), Larry McDuffey (100 vs. Rice), Shane Ros (114 vs. UAB) and Charles Sims (114 vs. SMU) accomplished the feat.

RUSHING TO CONCLUSIONS« Sophomore Kenneth Farrow was second on the team in 2012 with 86 carries for 466 yards and two touchdowns. The 5-11, 206-pound back get also could get a look a fullback.« A second sophomore, Ryan Jackson, will team with Farrow after gashing Tulane for 129 yards and two TDs in last season’s finale. Jackson finished the year with 252 yards and three TDs.« Others to watch at running back position are freshmen Joseph Glenn and Javin Webb.

THROWING IT AROUND« Two scholarship quarterbacks from 2012 return - junior David Piland and sophomore Bram Kohlhausen.« Piland started 10 games, missing one with an injury, and finished the year with 2,924 yards and 16 touchdowns on 256-of-448 passing.« After stepping into action as a true freshman in 2010, Piland red-shirted in 2011 before grabbing the starting reins in 2012. The junior currently ranks seventh in Houston history with 457 career completions and 5,585 career passing yards.« Piland was fourth on the team in 2012 with 190 rushing yards includ-ing the season’s longest rush - an 86-yard TD scamper at UCLA.« Kohlhausen saw action in three games in 2012, finishing with 31 passing yards on four completions with two interceptions.« The program welcomes three quarterbacks to the roster in 2013 - junior college transfer Billy Cosh and freshmen John O’Korn and Greg Ward Jr.

ON THE OFFENSIVE« Since 2006, no team in college football has racked up more offensive yards than Houston who has 48,315 yards in that time.

Rank Team Total Yards (06-present) Season Average (06-12)1. HOUSTON 48,315 6,9022. Oregon 44,707 6,3873. Oklahoma 44,702 6,3864. Nevada 44,340 6,3345. Boise State 41,947 5,992

QUICK STRIKE POTENTIAL« Of Houston’s 64 offensive scoring drives last season, 30 came in under two minutes. Twelve of those 30 came in under a minute with the season’s quickest drive lasting just seven seconds at East Carolina as David Piland hit Isaiah Sweeney in the end zone from 34 yards out.« Sixteen scoring drives consisted of five plays or less. « Fourteen of Houston’s touchdowns last year covered at least 30 yards. Ten different Houston players crossed the goal line on the 14 30-plus yard TDs. OFFENSIVE COACHING CHANGES« Doug Meacham, who spent the last eight seasons at Oklahoma State, joined the Houston staff on Jan. 14 as the program’s new offensive coordinator. A vital part of an OSU offense that averaged at least 40 points in five of his eight years in Stillwater, Meacham will oversee the program’s quarterbacks.« Entering his second season at Houston, Travis Bush was elevated to co-offensive coordinator and assistant head coach and shifted back to leading the program’s running backs after taking over as offensive play caller and quarterbacks coach during the 2012 season.« Glen Elarbee joined the program on Jan. 14 as its offensive line coach after spending 2012 at Middle Tennessee State where his unit ranked second nationally with just seven sacks allowed on 344 pass attempts. The first-year Houston coach spent two seasons coaching alongside Meacham at Oklahoma State.« Brandon Middleton and Jamie Christian both return in 2012 with Middleton coaching outside receivers and Christian taking on the inside receivers including the return of the tight end position.

BEHIND THE LINE« For the second straight year, the Houston offensive line lost just one starter as right guard Jacolby Ashworth graduated after earning All-Conference USA honors in his final season.« The returning group consists of six players with a combined 92 games of starting experience in their past - LT Rowdy Harper (26), LG Ty Cloud (26), G/C Kevin Forsch (19), RT Ralph Oragwu (10), C Bryce Redman (8) and T DeAnthony Sims (3).« The group of returning starters sports an average height of 6-3 with an average weight of 311 pounds.« Houston’s 2012 offensive line gave up just 18 sacks on the season, ranking second in Conference USA and 43rd nationally.« The front line unit will be led by new coach Glen Elarbee who coached a Middle Tennessee State offensive line in 2012 that finished second nationally with just seven sacks given up.« Houston’s incoming offensive line class of Damien Parris, Ja’Braylin Thomas and Josh Thomas stand at an average height of 6-6 and have an average weight of 329 pounds.

DEFENSE NOTES LOOK AT THE LINEBACKERS« With the loss of the most experienced player on the team in strongside linebacker Phillip Steward, new linebackers coach Vernon Hargreaves will look to replace Steward and starting middle linebacker Everett Daniels in 2013.« Hargreaves’ track record coaching linebackers speaks for itself. With seven linebackers at Miami alone drafted, Hargreaves also has Butkus Award, Nagurski Trophy and the Bednarik Award winners on his resume along with two of three finalists for the Butkus Award in 2003.« The group’s lone returning starter from 2012, Derrick Mathews is the defense’s most experienced player with 26 career starts and moves to the middle for 2013 after starting 26 straight games on the weakside. The junior has posted triple-digit tackles in his first two seasons on campus including 126 last season. His 80 assisted tackles in 2012 was the third-best single-season total in Houston history.« Replacing Mathews on the weakside will be senior George Bamfo, a veteran of 34 career games who seemed to click in the spring. Can-didates to back Bamfo are junior Efrem Oliphant and redshirt-freshman Davonte Thomas.« On the strongside, redshirt-freshman Steve Taylor will battle along with senior Austin Wilson for the right to replace Steward. A veteran of 31 games, Wilson has 17 career tackles.« The linebacking group welcomed two newcomers in the spring in sophomore Elandon Roberts, who transferred from Morgan State, and freshman Caleb Tucker, who enrolled early from high school in Monroe, La., while Tyler McCloskey joined the group in the fall. In his lone season at Morgan State, Roberts was a finalist for the Jerry Rice Award, given to the nation’s top freshman on the FCS level, as he finished the year with 107 tackles, two sacks, one interception and broke up two passes.

THREE OR FOUR? « Depending on Gibbs’ defensive call, Houston fans could possibly see a 4-3 or a 3-4 formation without a single player leaving the field as the returning defensive ends have the ability to easily shift to a stand-up linebacker position.« The only returning defensive lineman that was a regular in the 2012 starting lineup in junior defensive tackle Joey Mbu. With eight starts last season, Mbu had 27 tackles on the year while constantly holding up the point of attack. « After starting at Houston as a defensive back before moving to linebacker, Eric Eiland has now made the move to defensive end as he continues to bulk up without losing his quickness. A former minor league baseball player, Eiland exploded in the season finale of his freshman year with four tackles, a sack, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.« Redshirt-freshman Cameron Malveaux or junior defensive end Eric Braswell could hold down the starting end spot opposite Eiland. Braswell has 13 career starts with two coming in 2012 while Malveaux has bulked up to 252 pounds on his 6-6 frame. He is joined on the starting lineup chart by sophomore Tomme Mark who earned his first career start last season.

BEHIND THE LINE« The Houston defense ranked 10th nationally with 36 sacks and 22nd in the nation with 85 tackles for loss although a number of those will have to be replaced. Derrick Mathews led all returners with 17 tackles for loss, a number that ranked 17th nationally last season, and six sacks, which ranked ninth in Conference USA.

CHANGES TO THE DEFENSIVE STAFF« Veteran NFL and NCAA defensive coach David Gibbs takes over as Houston’s defensive coordinator in 2013. The 20-year coaching veteran has been part of a coaching staff that has played in a bowl game in seven of his 11 years on the collegiate level. The latest came in his last collegiate coaching stop when he served as defensive coor-dinator at Auburn in 2005. The Tiger defense ranked sixth nationally in scoring defense, allowing just 15.5 points per game, while ranking 11th in sacks with 39 and 16th in third-down defense.« Also new to the Houston defensive staff is linebackers coach Vernon Hargreaves. 28-year coaching veteran has been part of a coaching staff that has played in a bowl in 12 of his last 15 seasons including back-to-back BCS National Championship appearances at Miami.« In his second season at Houston, Ricky Logo will take over the entire defensive line while Zac Spavital handles the secondary for the sixth season.

TACKLING MACHINES« With its opponents winning the time of possession battle, Houston defenders were given the opportunity to pile up some numbers in 2012 and several did so as 10 Cougars racked up 37 double-digit tackle efforts.« Derrick Mathews led the way with eight double-digit tackle efforts in 2012. With last season’s effort, Mathews has 10 career games with at least 10 tackles.« In his first year on the collegiate level, Trevon Stewart led all fresh-men nationally with 126 tackles and was second to Marshall’s Dominick LeGrande (132) as the nation’s top defensive back in tackles.« Stewart was second behind Mathews with his six games with at least 10 tackles including a Houston season-high 21 stops against East Carolina. The 21-tackle total marked the seventh-best tackle game in Houston history. « Mathews and Stewart finished tied for second on the team with 126 tackles each, just two behind the 128 of team leader, senior Phillip Steward.

SECONDARY STARTERS« With all four starters from the 2012 season finale returning, the Houston secondary is in a battle with the offensive line as the team’s most experienced group.« Behind linebacker Derrick Mathews with 26 starts, senior cornerback Zach McMillian has the most starts of all defensive player with 25 career starts including all 12 games last season. The No. 2 corner on the team until D.J. Hayden went down with a season-ending injury, McMillian stepped up into the lead role and finished the season with interceptions in four of the last five games including all three games that Hayden missed.« Also affected by Hayden’s injury was senior corner Thomas Bates who started the final three games of the season at the No. 2 corner. In those three games Bates collected 26 tackles after only totaling nine tackles in the first nine games of the season. Bates also led the team in passes broken up, with 10 including five in the three games he started.« At free safety, Trevon Stewart returns after starting the final 10 games of 2012 at the position en route to earning FWAA Freshman All-America honors. The Patterson, La., native also broke up seven passes.« Adrian McDonald started two games in 2012 at nickel back before starting the season-finale at strong safety. A high school quarterback in his first year on defense, McDonald finished his lone start with eight tackles, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. The Lawton, Okla., native also picked off two passes on the season.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTESLEAVE IT TO LEONE« Senior Richie Leone will handle the starting punting duties for the fourth straight year. The Roswell, Ga., native earned First Team All-Conference USA honors last year as he tied the Houston school record with an average punt of 45.5 yards. The average is the second-best nationally among all returning punters.« Leone placed 18 of his punts inside opponents’ 20-yard line including nine inside the 10-yard line. Twenty of Leone’s 60 punts exceeded 50 yards including four over 60 yards and a career-long 77-yard punt vs. Louisiana Tech. Just 21 of Leone’s punts were returned with opponents calling for 24 fair catches with just six touchbacks on the year.« Leone also handled the kickoff duties for the Cougars with 25 touchbacks on 71 at-tempts. « Sophomore Sam Martin will back Leone up for the second consecutive season. While he did not have any punts in 2012, Martin did kickoff four times for Houston, sending one attempt for a touchback.

NEW FACES IN TWO PLACES« The 2013 season will see new faces in two pivotal places on the Houston special teams - kicker and long snapper. Matt Hogan and Brandon Hartson held the two posi-tions, respectively, for the last four years before graduating following the 2012 season.« Leone handled the majority of the kicking duties in the spring while sophomore Kyle Bullard was given a look as well after not attempting a kick in his first year on the roster. Bullard earned Second Team All-State honors as a senior at Samuel V. Champion High School in Boerne, Texas.« Highly-touted freshman kicker Ty Cummings enrolls at Houston this fall with plans to immediately jump into the fold. The Southake Carroll product was rated the nation’s top kicker by Scout. « At deep snapper, sophomore Nolan Frese will look to take over after backing up Hartson in 2012. The Roanoke, Texas, native was ranked by Chris Sailer Kicking as the No. 1 long snapper in the state of Texas in 2010 and the No. 7 long snapper in the nation.

RETURNING RETURNERS« Tony Levine and special teams coordinator Jamie Christian will have plenty of options to work with in the return game as seven of the nine Cougars with multiple returns in 2012 return this season.« Junior Damian Payne is the only returning player with multiple punt returns in 2012, taking back nine punts for a total of 33 yards (3.7 average). Opposing punters in 2012 forced 19 fair catches from Cougar returners while placing 27 punts inside the Houston 20-yard line.« Sophomore Ryan Jackson was the only Houston player to hit double digits in kick returns as he led the way with 14 returns for 304 yards (21.7 average). Junior Daniel Spencer had four returns for 69 yards (17.2 average) while sophomore Kenneth Farrow’s total of three returns for 128 yards (42.7 average) was boosted by a team best 61-yard return at Marshall. « Other returners with multiple kick returns were sophomore Larry McDuffey (3-63), junior Aaron Johnson (2-9) and junior Damian Payne (2-42). « Marcus Williams was the only Houston player with multiple returns to graduate as he had six returns for 123 yards.

2013 OUTLOOK

KENNETH FARROW

A New ChallengeAlthough the University of Houston did not officially move to The American Athletic Conference until July 1, 2013, the Houston football program spent last spring preparing for the challenges it will face in its new conference this fall.

One of the challenges for Tony Levine in his second season as a head coach is a 12-game schedule that features opponents that went to seven bowls in 2012 and own a 2012 combined record of 85-65.

Houston will welcome new conference foes Cincinnati (10-3 record in 2013), Memphis (4-8), SMU (7-6) and USF (3-9) to its temporary homes while the Houston Football Stadium, set to open in August of 2014, is being constructed.

The Cougars will also travel to face American foes UCF (10-4), Louisville (11-2), Rutgers (9-4) and Temple (4-7). In non-conference action, UH will face off against BYU (8-5), UTSA (8-4), Rice (7-6) and Southern (4-7).

In 2013 Houston returns 39 letterwinners with a combined 269 career starts. In all, 27 players with starting experience return from the 2012 roster that lost 20 starters with a combined 252 games started. The returning group includes six players that received All-Conference USA honors.

Changes were made to the coaching staff as well. On offense, new offensive coordinator Doug Meacham spent the last eight seasons on an Oklahoma State staff that consistently produced one of the nation’s top offenses. He’ll be joined on the offensive side of the ball by offensive line coach Glen Elarbee whose 2012 line at Middle Tennessee State ranked second nationally with just seven sacks given up.

On the defensive side of the ball, David Gibbs returns to the college ranks as Houston’s defensive coordinator after spending eight of his last nine seasons in the NFL. A veteran of seven collegiate coaching staffs that advanced to bowl games, Gibbs will be joined by linebackers coach Vernon Hargreaves. A 28-year coaching veteran, Hargreaves has been a part of a staff that has advanced to a bowl game in 12 of the last 15 seasons including back-to-back BCS National Championship appearances at Miami.

The OffenseExperience plays a part on the offensive side of the ball for Houston in 2013 as it returns 15 players with starting experience.

Familiarity is the word up front as Houston returns a load of experience with six offensive linemen with a combined 92 career starts.

The passing game also contains names well recognized in the Houston area as 2012 starting quarterback David Piland returns along with 61.3 percent of Houston’s 2011 receiving yards. In all, 10 of UH’s top 13 receivers return.

In the backfield, youth rules the days as sophomores Kenneth Farrow and Ryan Jackson take over after sucessful freshmen campaigns.

QUARTERBACKSAs previously mentioned, 2012 starting quarterback David Piland returns in 2013 as does last season’s backup, Bram Kohlhausen.

Piland enters the fall seventh on Houston’s all-time passing charts with 5,585 career yards. The junior finished last season third in Conference USA with 283.5 yards of total offense per game despite missing two games with injuries.

Piland is just six touchdowns away from moving into the top five on the UH career chart after throwing for 16 last year along with 2,924 yards on 256 completions.

Kohlhausen, a sophomore, is the only other quarterback on Houston’s roster with FBS experience, after seeing action in three games last year.

Junior college transfer Billy Cosh and highly-touted freshmen John O’Korn and Greg Ward Jr. have made their way to the Houston campus and are being given the opportunity to compete for the starting position in 2013.

Cosh led Butler Community College to the NJCAA National Championship with 2,856 yards and 25 touchdowns through the air and three rushing TDs.

O’Korn was named the Florida Offensive Player of the Year as he led St. Thomas Aquinas to a state title while Ward led Texas’ Class 4A with 4,202 passing yards and 39 touchdowns as a senior.

2013 OUTLOOK

DEONTAY GREENBERRY

RUNNING BACKSNew faces and a fresh start emerged for the Houston ground game in the spring as sophomore Kenneth Farrow took over the lead role with classmate Ryan Jackson battling for the position as well.

Farrow finished second on the team in rushing last season with 466 yards and two touchdowns on 86 carries. The power back picked up three starts and also finished with 20 receptions for 165 yards and a touchdown.

Jackson had 59 rushing attempts resulting in 252 yards and three touchdowns as a true freshman in 2012. In his lone start of the year, Jackson exploded for 129 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in the season finale against Tulane. Former defensive back Kent Brooks, junior Randall Hollimon and sophomore Justin Hicks also saw time in the spring.

Two more running backs enter the competition for carries as incoming freshmen Joseph Glenn and Javin Webb make their way to campus in the fall.

The fullback position, a position not seen on the Houston campus in some time, will return in 2013. Former linebackers Xavier Brown and Luke Stice will man the position for the Cougars.

RECEIVERSAny quarterback would express delight in having 10 of the prior season’s top 13 receivers back. And that’s the case in Houston as returning receivers accounted for 2,415 of Houston’s 3,936 receiving yards in 2012.

The returning group is led by sophomore Deontay Greenberry (47 receptions for 564 yards). Greenberry, who is on the Biletnikoff Award watch list, was one of two freshmen receivers named to the Conference USA All-Freshman team as was Larry McDuffey, who led all Cougars with four receiving touchdowns.

Another deep threat for Houston, junior Daniel Spencer averaged 14.1 yards per catch on his 41 receptions for 579 yards. Xavier Maxwell, who had 10 receptions for 179 yards and two touchdowns, also return to the receiving group.

A name to keep an eye on is Markeith Ambles, who arrives after a season at Arizona Western following a freshman season at USC.

Freshman Andrew Rodriguez, who received a medical redshirt after appearing in just two games with five receptions for 82 yards, and sophomore Casey Martin (4-20) round out Houston’s returning receivers in 2013. Junior Aaron Johnson is another name to watch in the receiving mix.

Freshman D’Juan Hines enrolled for the spring semester at Houston and got a jump on an incoming freshman receiver class of four that also includes Demarcus Ayers, Donald Gage III and John Leday.

Another position not recently seen in the Third Ward, tight end, will be one that is reintroduced to the Houston offense. Incoming freshmen tight end Chauntez Jackson will have an opportunity at the position in the fall.

Shane Ros, who earned a scholarship after a season that saw him pull in 23 balls for 337 yards and three touchdowns, will miss the season with a torn ACL.

OFFENSIVE LINEFor the second straight year, Houston returns a multitude of experience along the offensive line losing only one player in its two deep in right guard Jacolby Ashworth.

Six players with a total of 92 career starts return led by the left side of the ‘Brick Squad’ tackle Rowdy Harper and guard Ty Cloud. Harper, a junior, and Cloud, a senior both enter 2013 with 26 career starts to their names. Look for the two to be backed up by sophomore Alex Cooper and senior DeAnthony Sims, who has three career starts, respectively.

Senior Kevin Forsch has 19 career starts to his name with experience at both center and guard. Forsch began 2012 at center before sliding to right guard after junior Bryce Redman, on the Rimington Trophy watch list, started the final six games of the season in the middle of the line. Junior Austin Lunsford provided depth for Redman at center last season, while sophomore Emeka Okafor did the same at the guard positions.

At right tackle Ralph Oragwu returns for his senior season after starting 10 games at the position last year. He enters the fall camp backed up by sophomore Zach Johnson.

DERRICK MATHEWS

Redshirt-freshman Mac Long could also factor in the o-line mix as well.

A sizeable group of three newcomers on the line, that average 6-6 and 329 lbs., arrives in the fall. Junior college transfer Damien Parris joins incoming freshmen Ja’Braylin Thomas and Josh Thomas to form an impressive group of newcomers.

The DefenseDefensive coordinator David Gibbs’ previous collegiate stops featured aggressive defenses that were among the nation’s leader in sacks while producing a number of stars in the secondary.

While Houston lost two valuable defenders to graduation in D.J. Hayden and Phillip Steward along with a number of defensive linemen, a wealth of talented youngsters return for a defense that will show multiple fronts.

DEFENSIVE LINEThe unit depleted the most by graduation, the defensive line returns three players with starting experience. The three - Eric Braswell (13), Joey Mbu (8) and Tomme Mark (1) have a combined 22 career starts.

A junior, Mbu led all returning defensive linemen with 27 tackles in 2012 while Mark collected 14 tackles on the year while often holding up the point of attack.

Mark and Mbu look to hold their positions at the top of the defensive tackle group where they’ll be joined by senior Josh McNeill, junior Jeremiah Farley and redshirt-freshman B.J. Singleton.

Braswell is the lone returning defensive end with starting experience. A junior, Braswell has 13 career starts and had 18 tackles last season. He will battle with redshirt-freshman Cameron Malveaux (6-6, 252) who has added much needed strength and size in his first year on campus.

Originally a defensive back upon his arrival on the UH campus, Eric Eiland moved to linebacker last year and has continued to add size and strength without compromising his speed with a move to defensive end in 2013.

A sophomore, Eiland saw limited time as a freshman before exploding for a sack, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in the season finale vs. Tulane.

Joining Eiland as a newcomer on Houston’s defensive line will be junior college transfer Trevor Harris. The 6-5, 230 lb., transfer from ASA College will be joined by juniors William Moore and Jon Witten.

Incoming freshmen Tyus Bowser, Texas’ 4A Defensive Player of the Year, and Nick Thurman also enter the competition on the defensive line in the fall.

LINEBACKERSFor the first time in four years, the Houston linebackers core won’t feature Phillip Steward, who had started 47 consecutive games prior to graduation.

A new identity emerges for the linebacking group with new position coach Vernon Hargreaves taking over a group that has experience in the middle where Derrick Mathews moves to with his 26 career starts. The junior, who has Freshman All-American honors on his resume, tied for second on the team last season with 126 tackles, 17 of which went for loss including six sacks.

Mathews will have depth behind him in sophomore transfer Elandon Roberts, a transfer from Morgan State who was a top candidate for the Jerry Rice Award, given to the nation’s top freshman on the FCS level.

On the weakside, senior George Bamfo seemed to have clicked in the spring, showing great improvement and left the session with the starting role. The speedy senior has seen action in 34 career games both on defense and on special teams. Junior Eferm Oliphant, who has played in 23 games including three starts could factor into the mix as well.

Vying to replace Steward on the strongside will be redshirt-freshman Steve Taylor, senior Austin Wilson, who has experience in 31 games, freshman Caleb Tucker and redshirt-freshman Davonte Thomas.

Houston product Tyler McCloskey also joins the linebacking group in the fall.

TREVON STEWART

DEFENSIVE BACKSPossibly the most experienced of any group in the Houston program this spring, the secondary returns all four starters from 2012’s season finale.

The group’s most experienced member is senior corner Zach McMillian, who started every game at the position last season and now has 25 career starts. The Missouri City, Texas, native earned honorable mention All-Conference USA honors last season after leading the league with five interceptions.

Following the season-ending injury of D.J. Hayden, Thomas Bates stepped into the starting role in the other corner position and finished the year with three straight starts en route to leading the squad with 10 pass breakups.

The two will be backed up by junior college transfer Turon Walker and redshirt-freshman Brandon Wilson while senior Alex Tillman joins the mix as well.

The safety positions will be manned by two sophomores who saw considerable time as true freshmen. Trevon Stewart earned FWAA Freshman All-America honors after starting the final 10 games of the year at strong safety. The Patterson, La., native led all freshmen nationally with 126 tackles while breaking up seven passes.

A high school quarterback, McDonald was a jack-of-all-trades for the Houston secondary in 2012, moving from nickel back to corner to safety. With three starts on the year, McDonald picked off two passes and finished with 35 tackles.

Redshirt-freshmen Steven Aikens and Jarrett Irving have shown promise at the position as well and will battle sophomore Earl Foster and senior Colton Valencia for spots on the Houston depth chart.

The group added six with junior college transfers Kent London, Marcus Dillard and William Jackson, Boise State transfer Lee Hightower and freshman Nomluis Fruge joining the camp in the fall.

The Special TeamsHouston will look to replace two vital parts of its special teams - kicker Matt Hogan and deep snapper Brandon Hartson, both four-year starters.

KICKERPunter Richie Leone handled the kicking in the spring and will be backed up by highly-touted freshman kicker Ty Cummings entering the fall. Sophomore Kyle Bullard also returns for Houston.

PUNTERLeone prides himself as a valuable asset in the field position game, whether by booming a punt over 50 yards, which he has done 38 times in his career or placing a punt inside the 20-yard line, like he did on 18 of his 60 punts in 2012. He’ll look to do the same in 2013 as he enters the year on the Ray Guy Award watch list.

Leone will be backed up for a second straight year by sophomore Sam Martin.

RETURNERSTony Levine and special teams coordinator Jamie Christian will have plenty of options when it comes to the return game. Four of the top five punt returners will be back in 2013 while seven of the eight kick returners with multiple returns in 2012 do as well.

Junior Damian Payne leads all returning punt returners with nine returns for 33 yards but will give way to Larry McDuffey. In the kick return game, Ryan Jackson led all with 14 returns for 304 yards. Daniel Spencer had four returns for 69 yards while Kenneth Farrow had three for 128 yards and McDuffey three for 63 yards.

DEEP SNAPPERSophomore Nolan Frese takes over for departed senior Brandon Hartson who held the starting position for four straight years.

HOLDERRedshirt-freshman defensive back Jarrett Irving takes over holder duties for former quarterback Crawford Jones who graduated in 2013.

COMING AUGUST 2014

A New Era in Houston AthleticsA new era in Houston Athletics will open in August of 2014 when the Houston Football Stadium opens for play.

The University of Houston broke ground on the state-of-the-art stadium that will sit on the location of Houston’s former home, Robertson Stadium, on Feb. 8, 2013.

The 70-year old Robertson Stadium was torn down in December of 2012 just two weeks after Houston’s final home game of the year to make way for the new $105 million stadium.

Designed by PageSoutherlandPage and the DLR Group to showcase the Houston skyline in the northwest corner of the stadium to remind all visitors and television audiences that UH is the University of Houston, the stadium is being constructed by Manhattan Construction, a well-known firm in Houston having constructed both Reliant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Houston Texans, and BBVA Compass Stadium, home of MLS’ Houston Dynamo.

With seating available for at least 40,000, the Houston Football Stadium will provide Houston fans an exciting gameday experience including 5,000 premium seating options and a stylish 12,400-square foot club space overlooking the field of play on the stadium’s south side.

Views exclusive to the club area give those fans an opportunity to watch team members travel from the locker room to the field.

Twenty-six premium seats, each containing 12 outside padded arm chairs, four inside bar stools and an entertainment area, will span from end zone to end zone on the south side with 34 loge boxes each containing four seats located throughout the stadium.

Four open-air party decks and two open-air party suites at different locations throughout the stadium offer Houston Football fans spectacular views of the game while providing a comfortable and unique experience to entertain family and friends on game day.

Houston’s state-of-the-art 5,000-square foot home locker room will be located at the southeast corner of the stadium next to the Bert F. Winston Band and Performance Center, a 39,089-square foot building on the east end of the Houston Football Stadium housing the Spirit of Houston Band Recital Halls and classroom spaces, gallery multi-purpose area and UH Athletics Ticket Office.

Houston Athletics Senior StaffMACK RHOADESVice President for Intercollegiate AthleticsFifth Year at Houston Mack Rhoades became the 11th director of athletics in University of Houston history with his hiring in June 2009 after an award-winning career at the University of Akron.

With his vision of an award-winning Athletics Department, both academically and athletically, Rhoades has electrified the University and City of Houston with his bold plans for Houston Athletics as its brand continues to spread nationally.

All of this has been done while remaining true to the department’s core values: Accountability, Excellence, Inclusivity, Integrity, Loyalty and Sportsmanship.

Working with Dr. Renu Khator, Rhoades successfully steered Houston into a new era as the University was invited in December of 2011 to join The American Athletic Conference beginning with the 2013-14 academic year.

One year later the demolition of Robertson Stadium signified another new period of Houston Athletics as it kicked off the construction of the $105 million, state-of-the-art, on-campus Houston Football Stadium set to open in August of 2014.

The facility will join the Dave Williams Golf Academy at Redstone Golf Club as new structures under Rhoades’ watch while planned renovations of Hofheinz Pavilion and other facilities are currently in the works.

His impact was immediately seen in 2009-10 during his first season as he led the Athletics Department to unprecedented heights. Under his watch, the football program returned to the national rankings - rising as high as No. 12 - the men’s track and field teams swept the indoor and outdoor titles and the men’s basketball team won its first Conference USA Tournament crown.

The three conference titles marked the first of eight in Rhoades’ first three years on campus. Under his direction, Houston teams have advanced to postseason competition 28 times while 31 individuals have earned All-America honors.

The fall of 2011 season saw Houston reach heights it had never visited before as Houston football set a season record with 13 wins and a No. 6 national ranking while the UH campus became the first ever Conference USA program to have ESPN Gameday broadcast live from it.

Those accolades also extended into the classroom. The conclusion of the 2012 fall semester saw Houston Athletics post record academic achievements with its highest ever fall semester grade point average, 2.92, and its highest overall cumulative GPA, 2.87, to date.

In addition to the best GPAs in program history, a record 75 athletes were named to the University of Houston’s Dean’s List while the 13.9 hours passed per student in the fall semester also marked a UH best. Of the 344 student-athletes under scholarship at UH, 333, or 97 percent, are in good academic standing, also a department record.

Eight sports boasted record fall semester GPAs – baseball, men’s basketball, football, golf, softball, swimming and diving, tennis and men’s track and field/cross country – while seven reached a program high in cumulative GPA – baseball, football, golf, softball, swimming and diving, tennis and men’s track and field/cross country.

Rhoades also has been a leader in the development of the Cougar Pride Leadership Academy. As one of just a handful across the nation, the program brings student-athletes together as freshmen through to graduation with activities that promote the complete person.

A leader among conference administrators as well, Rhoades was selected to The American Athletic Conference TV Committee after having served as the Conference USA chairperson for the Championship and Site Selection Committee.

THE CITY

The City of HoustonThe style-savvy residents of the country’s fourth-largest city and third-largest county (Harris) know that there’s no place quite like Houston.

With more than 2.2 million residents, the city attracts visitors and transplants with a wonderful mix of world-class arts, booming business, pro and college sports and award-winning cuisine.

As the rest of the country discovers what locals have known all along, Houston is finally enjoying the recognition it deserves. Just last year, the city landed on several “best of” lists, including the Travel + Leisure roundup of America’s Favorite Cities and the Hotwire.com index of most affordable U.S. vacation destinations.

See for yourself, here in Houston, where much of daily life happens outdoors, thanks to mild, year-round temperatures. Take time to explore the eclectic, culture-filled neighborhoods, gallery spaces and attractions, which offer diverse flavors that can only be found here.

Take the food, for example. Countless cutting-edge chefs have made a home in Houston, where diners eat out more than residents of any other city. Here, you’ll find James Beard Award winners and internationally renowned chefs serving up innovative cuisine that frequently catches the attention of foodies in Bon Appetit, Food & Wine and Saveur.

Venture Downtown during your stay and discover a thriving professional arts scene with professional resident companies in ballet, opera, symphony and theater; only four other U.S. cities can say the same. And the nearby Museum District stakes its claim as the country’s fourth largest, with 18 cultural powerhouses set within blocks of one another.

We have our own version of Central Park, too, offering nearly 1,500 acres of green space in the heart of the city. Just inside “the loop,” Memorial Park is home to a public golf course, swimming pool, tennis courts, trails and more. Downtown, Discovery Green park is outfitted with WiFi, a farmers market, dog runs, fine dining and ice-skating during the winter—just one more of the 650-plus urban green spaces filling the city.

Not surprisingly, businesses also recognize the allure of Houston’s offerings. Twenty-five companies on the Fortune 500 list call the Energy Capital of the World home. Aeronautic research is unsurpassed at NASA headquarters—the facility responsible for putting the first man on the moon—and Texas Medical Center remains the largest in the world with 47 highly lauded research and treatment institutions.

Come. Live like a local for a few days and discover why Houston’s mix of international appeal and Southern charm have captured the imagination of tastemakers the world over.

THE AMERICAN

The American Athletic ConferenceThe University of Houston took another historic step on July 1, 2013, as it officially became a member of The American Athletic Conference, its sixth athletic conference in the 67-year history of the University’s athletics program.

The move signified the end of Houston’s 17-year run in Conference USA. During the Conference USA era, Houston student-athletes combined for 162 All-America honors, 148 NCAA postseason appearances and 59 Conference USA titles.

Houston’s first conference membership was with the Lone Star Conference (1946-48) before a one-year stint in 1949 with the Gulf Coast Conference. After a year of independence in 1950, Houston spent nine years in the Missouri Valley Conference before 16 additional years as an independent. In 1976, Houston began a 20-year stint in the Southwest Conference before joining Conference USA in 1996.

Not entirely unlike the nation that provides its namesake, the American Athletic Conference was born from an ideal in which members with ambitious goals are provided with the means to succeed in their quests for excellence.

With roots that extend to three conferences, the American Athletic Conference membership in 2013 - its debut season - consists of 10 institutions: the University of Central Florida, the University of Cincinnati, the University of Connecticut, the University of Houston, the University of Louisville, the University of Memphis, Rutgers University, Southern Methodist University, the University of South Florida and Temple University.

In 2014-15, East Carolina University, Tulane University and the University of Tulsa come aboard. The 2015-16 season sees the U.S. Naval Academy join the ranks in football only.

The American, which operated as the Big East Conference from 1979 to 2013, will immediately take a place at the forefront of Division I athletics with schools that have played in a combined five Bowl Championship Series games, won four NCAA men’s basketball titles since 1999 and won eight NCAA women’s basketball championships since 1995.

Among the league’s 2013 members, seven of The American’s 10 football teams have been ranked in the top 13 in the BCS since 2006. Eight of the 10 teams have been in the BCS top 25 in that span. The 2013-14 membership will also include the most recent NCAA men’s basketball (Louisville) and women’s basketball (UConn) champions.

TONY LEVINE• Offensively in 2010, the Cougars finished 11th in the nation in total offense (480.5 ypg), fifth in passing offense (327.3 ypg) and 13th in scoring offense (37.7 ppg). Inside receiver James Cleveland finished his two-year career with 161 catches for 2,014 yards and 20 touchdowns, all which rank in the school’s top-10 all-time list

• In 2009, Cleveland (1,214 yards) and Carrier (1,029 yards) each surpassed the 1,000-yard receiving mark, while tight end Fendi Onobun became a sixth-round draft pick of the NFL’s St. Louis Rams. Onobun also tied an NCAA single-game record with two blocked PATs against C-USA foe Southern Miss, one of which led to a key defensive conversion in a 50-43 win

• Offensively, the Cougars ranked first nationally in total offense (563.4 ypg), passing offense (433.7 ypg) and scoring offense (42.2 ppg) in 2009.

• Levine tutored Hogan, who was named a Freshman All-American by Sporting News and was a C-USA All-Freshman Special Teams selection. The Cougars also tied an NCAA record by returning five kickoffs for touchdowns and tied a school single-season mark with six blocked kicks.

• In 2008, Levine coached tight end Mark Hafner to an All-Conference USA Second Team selection and career highs in catches (86), receiving yards (907) and touchdowns (11). Carrier was also named to the All-C-USA Second Team after catching 80 passes for 1,026 yards and nine touchdowns.

• Statistically, the Cougar offense finished second in the country in both total offense (562.8 ypg) and passing (401.6 ypg) and 10th in scoring (40.6 ppg). Also under Levine, punter Chase Turner earned a spot on the All-C-USA Honorable Mention list after averaging 45.5 yards per punt. Turner’s mark was a single-season school record, while the team’s net punting average of 36.5 yards was also the highest in school history. The Cougars finished the season ranked 34th in the country in net punting, up from 114th (31.2) in 2007, prior to Levine’s arrival.

• Houston’s kickoff coverage defense ranked 22nd nationally, yielding a mere 18.96 yards per return on 92 kickoffs, while the Cougars blocked five kicks (three field goals, two punts).

• Before coming to Houston, Levine spent two seasons with the NFL’s Carolina Panthers, serving as the assistant special teams and assistant strength and conditioning coach. While at Carolina, Levine coached one of the best specialist units in the NFL in kicker John Kasay, punter Jason Baker and long snapper Jason Kyle. In 2006, the Panthers led the NFC with a net punting average of 38.8 yards while Baker’s 39.0 net punting average set a Panthers team record. Baker’s 31 punts inside the 20 were also tops in the NFC, and he ranked second overall with a 45.7-yard gross average. Kasay produced his most accurate season as well in 2006, converting a career-best 88.9 percent of his field goals (24-of-27).

• Prior to Carolina, Levine coached at the University of Louisville, where he played an integral role in the Cardinals’ success for three seasons. During his stay in Louisville, the Cardinals posted an impressive 29-8 overall record, including an 11-1 record and a No. 6 national ranking in 2004.

• Levine began as director of football operations at Louisville in 2003, where he was responsible for the overall day-to-day operation of the school’s football program in coach Bobby Petrino’s first year as head coach. In 2004 he was named special teams coordinator and outside linebackers coach and made an immediate impact on the field. Under Levine’s tutelage, the Cardinals ranked near the top in Conference USA in almost all special teams statistics, while Louisville’s defense finished 15th nationally in total defense, 18th in rush defense, 24th in scoring defense and 30th in pass defense.

• Superlatives from his two seasons as special teams coach at Louisville included seven blocked kicks, three punt returns for touchdowns and an NCAA single-season record of 77 consecutive extra points by kicker Art Carmody. Carmody, a former walk-on, was also named First-Team All-Big East under Levine and went on to win the 2006 Lou Groza Award as the nation’s top collegiate kicker. Carmody finished his playing career as the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer for a kicker with 433 points.

TONY LEVINEHead CoachMinnesota ‘96Second Season as Head Coach (6-7 record)Sixth Season at Houston • Tony Levine enters his second season as the head coach at the University of Houston Football.

• Introduced as the 12th head coach in Houston history on Dec. 22, 2011, Levine made an emphatic national statement in his opening game as the UH head coach, belting No. 22 Penn State, 30-14, in the 2012 TicketCity Bowl to cap a memorable season filled with broken statistical records and milestone victories.

• Levine took over at UH two weeks before that Jan. 2 bowl contest in Dallas and unveiled a prepared squad that held Penn State to just two scores and produced a Cotton Bowl Stadium record 532 yards of passing vs. the nation’s No. 4-ranked pass defense. The victory helped UH to a school-record 13th win (tops in the nation) and first January bowl victory since the 1979 campaign. Levine led the Cougars to an end-of-season national ranking for the first time since 1990 and was the first UH head coach to open his career with a win vs. a nationally-ranked opponent since Harold Lahar in 1957.

• The St. Paul, Minn., native directed Houston in its final season of play in Conference USA and will lead the team’s transition into The American Athletic Conference, one of just six automatic qualifying conferences for the Bowl Championship Series in 2013.

• While 2012 was Levine’s first full season as head coach, he is certainly no stranger to the Houston community. The former collegiate wide receiverspent the previous four seasons before his promotion on the UH staff, including his final two as assistant head coach.

• The 40-year old has spent 17 years in the coaching ranks, including stints at all levels of football, from a high school stop in his home state of Minnesota, to a two-year stop with the Carolina Panthers of the NFL.

• The 2012 season saw 13 Houston players earn All-Conference USA honors and Trevon Stewart named to the FWAA Freshman All-American team. Three Houston players - D.J. Hayden (interceptions per game), Richie Leone (punting average) and Phillip Steward (sacks) led the Conference in their respective categories. Leone tied the Houston single-season record with an average of 45.5 yards per punt while Matt Hogan set the Conference USA career scoring record with 405 points.

• In November 2011, CBSSports.com’s Bruce Feldman named Levine one of the nation’s 10 fastest-rising assistant coaches.

• During Levine’s tenure at UH, the special teams units reached unprecedented heights, highlighted by 17 blocked kicks, eight kickoff returns for touchdowns and six forced turnovers. Those groups also have tied/broken seven NCAA records and set 11 school marks.

• From 2008-11, the eight kickoff returns for touchdowns were the second most by any FBS school over the time period, while the 16 blocked kicks ranked among the national leaders during that same period.

• Houston has been explosive as a return unit during Levine’s tenure and had three returns for scores in 2011, including Tyron Carrier’s seventh career kickoff return for a score (tied an NCAA record) and two punt return scores by two different returners in the road win at Tulane. Hogan also broke the NCAA record with 78 consecutive extra points made in a season.

• The 2010 season saw the Cougars return a punt, kickoff and a blocked field goal for touchdowns. Punt returner Patrick Edwards finished seventh in the nation and first in C-USA with a 15.4 yard per return average, while Houston finished ninth nationally with a 14.3 yard per return mark. Wesley Scourten finished the 2010 season with five blocked kicks and eight for his career -- both school records -- while Carrier brought his career kickoff return touchdown total to six before adding No. 7 in 2011

TONY LEVINE• As special teams coordinator at Louisiana Tech in 2002, Levine coached Josh Scobee, who earned All-WAC Second Team honors and was selected by Jacksonville in the 2004 NFL draft. Offensively, Louisiana Tech ranked 19th nationally in total offense (417.9 ypg) and 10th in passing (302.8 ypg).

• Levine spent the 2000 and 2001 seasons working as the offensive graduate assistant at Auburn, where he coached the tight ends and worked closely with special teams. During those two seasons, the Tigers compiled a 16-9 overall record while winning back-to-back SEC West Division titles. Robert Johnson, Lorenzo Diamond and Cooper Wallace, three of the tight ends Levine worked with, went on to earn roster spots in the NFL.

• Prior to Auburn, Levine worked as an assistant coach at Texas State, assisting with the wide receivers in 1997 before coach-ing the tight ends in 1998 and 1999. In addition to his coaching responsibilities, Levine served as co-recruiting coordinator at the end of the 1999 season. Levine began his coaching career in 1996 as an assistant coach and freshman head coach at Highland Park (Minn.) Senior High, his alma mater.

• A walk-on at the University of Minnesota, Levine became a three-time letterwinner at wide receiver for the Gophers and was twice named to the Academic All-Big Ten Team.

• In addition to earning a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology with an emphasis in sports management from Minnesota, he also holds a master’s degree in physical education from Texas State and an educational specialist degree in adult education from Auburn. His playing resume also includes one season as a wide receiver for the Minnesota Fighting Pike of the Arena Football League.

• Levine and his wife, Erin, have three sons, Benjamin, Asher and Eli, and a daughter, Willa.

What They’re Saying“I’m so pleased to be able to announce Tony Levine as our new head coach. Before we began this process we talked about the characteristics we wanted in the leader of our football program and Tony embodies each of those qualities. We spoke with former players, current student-athletes and interviewed some of the top football coaches in the country, and all of our talks led us right back to Tony. We consistently talk about building a program and building upon our culture here at UH and when you have the perfect fit right here on staff, you feel fortunate. But we still wanted to do our due diligence. We talked to some great folks, some people that are already outstanding Division I head coaches, but the best fit for UH is Tony Levine.”

- Mack Rhoades, Houston’s Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics

“I’m extremely happy for Tony. He worked for me as a young coach, and I knew very quickly that he was going to be a star in our profession. One thing about Tony, he has paid his dues. He went from playing at the college level to a graduate assistant, to working in the NFL and back to college. He worked his way up, and that’s rare for young guys in our profession nowadays. That work ethic, organization and determination will help him be successful. I wish him all the best.”

- Tommy Tuberville, Texas Tech head coach

“I couldn’t be more excited for Tony and his family. He has prepared for this opportunity all his life, and he is ready. His experience in both collegiate and professional football and his role as assistant head coach over the last few years has made him ready to direct the UH program. One thing about Tony, he has worked with players in every phase of the game. He is a tremendous recruiter and has developed great relationships in the city of Houston. He can manage players and personalities, which is crucial for a head coach, and we know he can make decisions in critical moments. Knowing him as both a player and as a coach, I couldn’t be happier for Tony and the University of Houston.”

- Kevin Sumlin, Texas A&M head coach // former Houston head coach

“I’m so happy for Coach Levine and his family. It goes without saying that we have a tremendous amount of respect for him and for how he approaches both coaching and life. He is an outstanding football coach, but he is an even better husband and father, and that’s something I really respect. I hope I have the opportunity to coach for him one day.”

- Case Keenum, Houston quarterback (2007-11)

“This was a great hire. I have so much respect for Coach Levine and what he means to us not only as a football coach but also as a teacher of men. Our program is going in the right direction, and it’s great for our younger guys that we can keep it in the family. Our entire team is excited about the hire and that tells me a lot. We are happy about the outcome, and I am happy that so many more people will have a chance to know Coach Levine like we know him.”

- Justin Johnson, Houston wide receiver (2007-11)

“He will do an outstanding job, and I really like the fact he is familiar with our program. To me it was important to have someone familiar with our program be our next head coach because he will appreciate the history we have. I wish him all the best.”

- Audray McMillian, former Houston and NFL great

“I just can’t tell you how happy I am right now for Coach Levine. He came to Louisiana Tech my junior year (2002) and he brought with him a discipline that helped keep us in line. He was the reason I turned my academics around from very poor to much better. He stayed on me, the tight ends and the other specialists about being responsible on the football field, and more importantly, off the field. I gained a lot of respect for him for that, and it’s great to see him rewarded for all the hard work he has put in. I couldn’t be more happy for Coach Levine.”

- Josh Scobee, Jacksonville Jaguars placekicker (2004-present)

The Tiger defense ranked sixth nationally in scoring defense, allowing just 15.5 points per game, while ranking 11th in sacks with 39 and 16th in third-down defense.

• On the professional level, Gibbs spent a combined nine seasons in Denver, Kansas City and Houston as a defensive backs coach. Teams sporting Gibbs on staff finished in the top 12 of total defense five times and advanced to the NFL Playoffs on three occasions. Three players under Gibbs earned NFL Pro Bowl selections in Champ Bailey, John Lynch and Deltha O’Neal.

• Gibbs received his NFL start in Denver where in his first year the Denver defense ranked No. 6 in the league in interceptions and No. 9 in total defense. In 2002 the defense improved to No. 6 in total defense and No. 3 in passing touchdowns allowed.

• The following two years saw Denver advance to the playoffs as the Broncos ranked fourth in the NFL in total defense both years. Both years saw the squad finish sixth in passing defense and in the top 10 of scoring defense.

• In his return to the NFL in 2006, Gibbs assisted a Kansas City defense that improved in one season from 25th in total defense to 12th. In 2007, the Chiefs improved to No. 5 in the league in passing defense while ranking fourth in passing touchdowns allowed. The team allowed just one 300-yard passer in each of his first two seasons in Kansas City. After helping the 2008 Kansas City defense to finish ninth in turnovers forced, Gibbs moved to Houston where the Texans’ pass defense improved seven spots to 10th in the league in passing defense in his first year.

• Gibbs became the youngest coordinator on the FBS level at the time as the then 29-year old took over as a defensive coordinator at Minnesota in 1997. Gibbs improved a Minnesota defense that had ranked last in the Big Ten in 1996 to one that was ranked eighth in the nation in pass efficiency defense and scoring defense by 1999.

• His defense helped lead the Golden Gophers to back-to-back bowl games in 1999 and 2000. Players from Gibbs’ span at the school (1997-2000) currently own 17 individual defensive records at Minnesota while his 1997 group holds the team record with 41 sacks in a season.

• Under Gibbs’ tutelage, Tyrone Carter won the 1999 Jim Thorpe Award and back-to-back All-America honors in 1998 and 1999. Defensive end Lamanzer Williams earned All-American honors in Gibbs’ first year, 1997, as Gibbs’ defense produced an All-American in three consecutive seasons for the first time at Minnesota since 1961-63.

• Defensive end Karon Riley was named the Big Ten Defensive Lineman of the Year in 2000. Under Gibbs, six Minnesota defensive players earned first team All-Big Ten honors while six more earned second team honors.

• Gibbs earned his first full-time coaching position in 1995 at the University of Kansas where he coached the program’s defensive backs. The Jayhawks advanced to just their eighth bowl game in program history in Gibbs first year where they defeated UCLA in the Hawaii Bowl. Defensive back Dorian Brew earned All-Big Eight honors in Gibbs’ first season at Kansas while Tony Blevins and Jason Harris each earned All-Big 12 honors under Gibbs.

• Gibbs first got in the coaching door with back-to-back two-year stints as a graduate assistant at Colorado and Oklahoma before moving on to Kansas. Oklahoma won the 1991 Gator Bowl while Colorado collected wins in the 1993 Aloha Bowl and 1994 Fiesta Bowl with Gibbs on staff.

• The Auburn, Ala., native was a four-year letterman at the University of Colorado from 1987-90 and started at defensive back for the 1990 national-title winning Colorado team and the 11-1 1989 team that finished fourth nationally in the season’s final polls. Gibbs graduated from Colorado in 1990, earning Academic All-Big Eight honors as a senior.

Coaching Accomplishments• Doug Meacham joined the Houston program as its offensive coordinator on Jan. 14, 2013.

• Doug Meacham was part of two of the most successful eras in Oklahoma State football history, first as a player from 1984-87 and as a coach from 2005-12.

• He helped coach an Oklahoma State offense that has averaged at least 40 points per game in 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012.

• Meacham has been part of Oklahoma State offensive coaching staffs that led the Cowboys to top-20 national finishes in total offense in 2006 (16th), 2007 (seventh), 2008 (sixth), 2010 (third), 2011 (third) and 2012 (fourth).

• From 2010-12 alone, the Cowboys scored more than 50 points 15 times, broke the 60-point mark in seven contests, the 70-point mark twice and the 80-point plateau once.

• Under Meacham’s direct watch, 2012 first-team All-Big 12 receiver Josh Stewart enjoyed one of the best sophomore seasons in OSU history with 101 catches for 1,210 yards and seven touchdowns. Stewart’s 101 receptions were the fourth-most in school history and his 1,210 receiving yards trailed only Justin Blackmon (Jacksonville Jaguars) and Dez Bryant (Dallas Cowboys) on the all-time OSU list for sophomore wideouts.

• Meacham coached inside receiver Josh Cooper (Cleveland Browns) to a spot on the OSU career top-10 in both receptions and receiving yards.

• With Meacham serving as his position coach, Cooper ranked in the top 10 in the Big 12 and the top 50 nationally in receptions per game in both 2010 and 2011.

• Meacham served as OSU’s passing game coordinator in 2008 and 2009.

• Among his charges at tight end during his OSU tenure is 2007 first-team All-Big 12 tight end Brandon Pettigrew, who went on to become a first-round draft choice (No. 20 overall) of the Detroit Lions.

• Under Meacham’s guidance, Pettigrew was a finalist for the 2008 Mackey Award presented to the nation’s top tight end.

• Meacham helped coach a 2008 Cowboy offense that ranked among the top 10 nationally in rushing, total offense, scoring and pass efficiency.

• Meacham coached Pettigrew to a 2007 season in which he had 35 catches for 540 yards (15.4 yards per catch) and four touchdowns and was a first-team all-Big 12 honoree.

• Meacham was instrumental in establishing a record-setting offense at Samford. He directed an attack in 2004 that set several school records, including passing yards (2,986), pass completions (256) and completion percentage (59.8).

• Prior to Samford, Meacham worked the same kind of magic at Henderson State, where he was offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. During the 2000 season at Henderson State, Meacham coached an offense that broke two Division II national passing and receiving records, four Gulf South Conference records and nine school passing and receiving records.

• Meacham’s history of record-breaking offenses, however, began even before his stint at Henderson. He joined the staff at Jacksonville State in 1997 and in just his first season, JSU went 7-4 and recorded the biggest turnaround in Division I-AA. During his tenure at Jacksonville State, Meacham’s offensive unit broke 21 school passing and receiving records.

• Meacham also spent three years as the offensive coordinator at Georgia Military College. He first joined the GMC staff in 1991 and served as offensive line and tight ends coach. In 1994, he was promoted to offensive coordinator and helped guide the school to an impressive 35-8 record during his tenure.

• During his playing days at Oklahoma State, Meacham was on teams that participated in four bowl games (1983 Bluebonnet, 1984 Gator, 1985 Gator and 1987 Sun). He was a three-year starter for the Cowboys and had a string of 35 consecutive starts. During his Oklahoma State playing career, the Cowboys fashioned an overall record of 34-9.

• Individually, he earned all-Big Eight honors and was an honorable mention All-American as a senior. He was a captain of the 1987 Sun Bowl team that defeated West Virginia. As an offensive lineman, Meacham blocked for both Thurman Thomas, a two-time Big Eight Player of the Year, and Barry Sanders, the 1988 Heisman Trophy winner.

Coaching Accomplishments• Travis Bush enters his second season at Houston and his first as co-offensive coordinator and assistant head coach.

• Bush started the 2012 season coaching the program’s running backs before taking over as the team’s play caller and quarterbacks coach after staff changes early in the season.

• Under Bush’s direction, the Houston offense finished 15th nationally with an average of 479.6 yards per game. The passing game ranked 11th nationally with 328.4 yards per game.

• Five offensive players earned All-Conference USA honors in 2012 under Bush’s leadership. Charles Sims and Ryan Jackson combined for five 100-yard rushing games while Crawford Jones and David Piland combined for seven games of at least 300 yards passing or better.

• As offensive coordinator at UTSA Bush was outstanding calling plays for the Roadrunners in 2011, helping the first-year program average nearly 27 points a contest. UTSA was balanced offensively, averaging 219.7 yards through the air and 144.8 yards on the ground. Bush was charged with the development of Eric Soza who threw for 2,148 yards and had 14 touchdowns compared to nine interceptions as a redshirt sophomore.

• Prior to his one season in San Antonio, Bush spent six seasons overall at Texas State, including three as the associate head coach and co-offensive coordinator for his alma mater. His final season in San Marcos the Bobcats finished nationally ranked and were No. 8 nationally in passing offense (289 ypg) and No. 12 in total offense (422 ypg). Another of his quarterback protégés, Bradley George, was named the Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Year, throwing for 3,121 yards and 23 touchdowns while breaking 10 school passing records, including 9,556 career passing yards.

• Texas State won the Southland Conference in 2008, earning a trip to the NCAA Division I FCS Playoffs. Ranked No. 22 nationally as a team, Bush’s offense ranked No. 5 in FCS in total offense (460 ypg) and fourth in scoring offense (38.3 ppg). George finished No. 6 nationally in pass efficiency, producing 2,401 passing yards and a school-record 25 TDs.

• In 2007, Bush was promoted to offensive coordinator after serving three seasons as Texas State’s receivers coach. He directed a Bobcats’ offensive unit that produced a 2,000-yard passer, 1,000-yard receiver and 1,000-yard running back for the first time in school history.

• Bush also spent three seasons as the receivers coach at Texas State (2004-06), helping the club to the 2005 national semifinals of the Football Championship Subdivision.

• Bush began his coaching tenure at TCU as a graduate assistant. He worked with the Horned Frogs’ offensive line from 2001-03 and helped the club make three consecutive bowl appearances and capture Conference USA and Liberty Bowl Championships.

• Bush graduated from Gregory-Portland High School in 1995 where he was a UIL 4A all-state quarterback. He moved on to Texas State, lettering four seasons as a receiver and serving as the Bobcats’ special teams’ captain in 1999. He was also awarded the J.C. Kellam Award in 1999, which honors Texas State’s most outstanding senior football student-athlete.

• Bush graduated from Texas State in 2000 with a bachelor’s degree in exercise and sports science and holds teaching certificates in mathematics and physical education. He earned a master’s degree in education administration from TCU in 2003.

• Bush’s father, Bruce Bush, has enjoyed a storied career in the state of Texas as a high school coach and has won 284 games in 35 seasons. Travis coached for his father at San Marcos High School in 2000 and the duo helped the program to an 11-1 overall record.

Coaching Accomplishments• Jamie Christian, one of the top special teams coordinators and receivers coaches in the country, enters his second season at the University of Houston.

• Under Christian’s special teams guidance, punter Richie Leone earned All-Conference USA honors as he tied the Houston single-season punting record with an average of 45.5 yards per punt. Senior kicker Matt Hogan ended his career with the Conference USA career scoring record with 405 points and set a Conference USA and school record with six field goals against UAB.

• At receiver, Christian helped tutor Deontay Greenberry and Larry McDuffey, both members of the Conference USA All-Freshman team.

• The Milpitas, Calif., native came to Houston after five seasons at Arizona State, where he directed the Sun Devils’ special teams and coached both the running backs and inside receivers/tight ends.

• Highly respected for his work with the ASU kicking game, Christian mentored the 2007 Lou Groza Award winner, Thomas Weber. Weber led the Pac-10 in field goals and field goal accuracy, making 24-of-25 tries.

• Tutored ASU’s Gerell Robinson, one of college football’s top pass-catchers in 2011, making 77 receptions for 1,397 yards and seven scores. His 1,397 yards ranked No. 6 nationally, while his 18.1 yards per catch ranked No. 12.

• The Sun Devils had the nation’s most-potent kick return game in 2011, ranking No. 5 nationally in punt returns (15.3) and No. 10 in kick returns (25.1). ASU had four total kick returns for score last year, including three on kickoffs and one via the punt return unit. Jamal Miles had three of those returns (tied for the national lead), returning a kickoff 98 yards in the season-opening win against UC Davis and another 95 yards to open the game at Washington State. His third return, a 78-yard punt return for score against Oregon State, helped him average a gaudy 16.6 yards per punt return this season. That would have led the country with enough attempts. His 26.3 yards per kickoff return ranked No. 18 nationally.

• A second returner, Rashad Ross, raced 98 yards vs. Boise State on a kickoff in the 2011 Maaco Las Vegas Bowl, pushing that Sun Devil season return total (both kickoff and punt return scores) to four.

• In 2010 he directed the kickoff return unit to a No. 2 ranking nationally. The ASU return game averaged 27.5 yards per return, tops in the Pac-10. Three different ASU kick returners took kickoffs back for touchdowns that year, including Omar Bolden who averaged 29.2 yards per return and LeQuan Lewis who logged 28.5 yards per attempt.

• Defensively his teams were equally effective, highlighted by the 2009 campaign when ASU ranked among the nation’s best, allowing opponents just 18.8 yards per kickoff return.

• Prior to his time at Arizona State Christian spent five seasons with Dennis Erickson at the University of Idaho (2006), the San Francisco 49ers (2003, 2004) and at Oregon State University (2000, 2001). Christian has also coached at Northern Arizona University (2002) and at Sacramento State University (2005).

• While at Idaho, Christian tutored a pair of 500-yard runners in Brian Flowers (561 yards) and Jayson Bird (506), who also combined for 11 rushing touchdowns.

• A former student-athlete, Christian began his playing career as a fullback at Fresno State before transferring to Central Washington. Christian switched to running back and was CWU’s leader in rushing yards and touchdowns as a senior and helped lead the Wildcats to the 1995 NAIA National Championship.

• Prior to his time at MTSU, Elarbee spent two seasons at West Georgia, first as the offensive line coach in 2010 before being elevated to offensive coordinator in 2011. At UWG, wide receiver and return specialist Denarius Appling earned All-America honors in 2011 and was one of three offensive players to receive All-Conference honors. The 2010 season saw offensive tackle Brandon White named the Gulf South Conference Freshman of the Year.

• The Carrollton, Ga., native has experience coaching in bowl games as he spent the 2008 and 2009 seasons as an offensive graduate assistant at Oklahoma State under Meacham and the 2007 season on the staff of an LSU squad that captured the BCS National Championship. The 2008 Oklahoma State offense ranked among the top 10 nationally in rushing, total offense, scoring and pass efficiency while the 2007 LSU team scored at least 40 points in seven games.

• Elarbee spent the 2006 season as the offensive line coach at East Central Community College in Decatur, Miss., after a year as Middle Tennessee State’s tight ends coach in 2005. Elarbee began his coaching career as a graduate assistant for the Blue Raiders in the 2003 and 2004 seasons.

• As a collegiate offensive lineman, Elarbee played in 35 career games at Middle Tennessee, starting his final 23, and earned All-Conference honors as a junior and senior. A four-year letterman, Elarbee was a member of the program’s first Sun Belt Conference Champion in 2001. He had 91 knockdowns on 735 snaps as a senior.

Coaching Accomplishments• Vernon Hargreaves enters his first season as the linebackers coach at the University of Houston.

• Coaching staffs that included Hargreaves have advanced to bowl games in 12 of the last 15 seasons including back-to-back BCS National Championship appearances while at Miami in 2001 and 2002. Hargreaves’ 2001 linebackers helped to lead a Miami defense that allowed just 9.4 points per game en route to a national title.

• In his last three seasons at USF, Hargreaves helped to lead a defense that finished among the Big East leaders. In 2011, Hargreaves’ defensive ends helped USF finish second nationally in tackles for loss and fourth nationally in sacks while only allowing 107.3 rushing yards per game, good for 15th in the NCAA ranks. The unit helped South Florida win its fourth bowl game in school history with a 31-26 win over Clemson in the 2010 Meineke Car Care Bowl.

• Hargreaves’ first year at the USF saw the Bulls’ defense rank 17th nationally in total defense, 317.9 yards per game, 22nd in scoring defense, 20.0 points per game, and 22nd in rushing defense with 125.6 yards per game. The Bulls led the Big East in tackles for loss while finishing fourth in the conference in sacks.

• Prior to his time in Tampa, Hargreaves spent three seasons in charge of East Carolina’s defensive ends and special teams. In addition to being a part of a coaching staff that appeared in a bowl in all three of his seasons in Greenville, N.C., Hargreaves was instrumental in the development of a pair of All-Conference USA performers, five game-winning field goals and college football’s all-time leading career kickoff return specialist at the time.

• Under Hargreaves’ leadership, defensive end C.J. Wilson was named the Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year in 2007 after leading the Pirates with 10.5 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss. Fellow end Zack Slate was not far behind with five sacks on the season.

• ECU special teams under Hargreaves flourished as well. His 2007 kickoff return unit ranked 13th nationally with an average return of 24.3 yards per return while the punting unit led Conference USA in net punting in both 2008, when it finished ninth nationally with a net average of 37.9 yards per punt, and in 2009, when it finished seventh nationally with a net average of 39.1 yards per punt.

• Hargreaves also helped East Carolina star Chris Johnson earn All-America honors his senior season as he completed the 2007 season as one of the country’s top return specialists. In the kicking game, Hargreaves’ field goal unit accumulated five game-winning field goals in his three years while kicker Ben Hartman ranked 10th nationally with 1.91 field goals per game in 2008.

• Prior to spending the 2006 season at Florida International, where he coached Lombardi Award nominee Keyonvis Bouie, Hargreaves enjoyed a successful eight years at Miami in which the Hurricanes advanced to a bowl each season including back-to-back BCS National Championship appearances and the 2001 BCS Championship.

• During his time at Miami, Hargreaves enjoyed a run of eight consecutive bowl appearances beginning in 1998 which resulted in victories against N.C. State (Micron PC), Georgia Tech (Gator), Florida (Sugar, Peach), Nebraska (Rose) and Florida State (Orange).

• Credited with molding some of the nation’s top linebackers while in Coral Gables, Hargreaves saw Dan Morgan win the Butkus Award, Nagurski Trophy and the Bednarik Award in 2000 and Jonathan Vilma and D.J. Williams finish as semifinalists for the Butkus Award in 2003. The three would all later be selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, three of Hargreaves’ seven linebackers to be drafted with the Miami program.

• During Miami’s 12-0 national championship season in 2001, which was capped by a 37-14 win over Nebraska in the Rose Bowl, Hargreaves helped guide a Hurricane defense that allowed just 9.4 points per game, only 138.2 passing yards a contest while netting a +2.36 edge in turnover margin. A year later, UM’s defense surrendered a paltry 119.7 passing yards per game on the way to a 12-1 campaign that concluded with a title game appearance against Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl.

• Hargreaves accepted his position at Miami after 13 seasons on the University of Connecticut staff, where he was outside linebackers coach from 1985-89 and inside linebackers coach from 1989-97. While at his alma mater, he played a pivotal role in the development of Paul Duckworth, who was a sixth-round pick of the Green Bay Packers in 1994.

• A native of New Haven, Conn., Hargreaves earned a bachelor’s of science degree in sociology from Connecticut in 1986. Prior to graduation, he was a four-year football letterman for the Huskies, who earned All-America honors as a junior and senior linebacker.

• He still ranks fifth on the UConn career tackles list with 393, holds two of the top-10 single-season tackle marks and stands as one of only eight Huskies to register 20 tackles in a single game (vs. Holy Cross in 1983). At the end of his collegiate career, Hargreaves signed a free agent contract with the Cleveland Browns and played professional football in Italy.

• In 1998, Hargreaves was named a member of UConn’s 100th Anniversary Team commemorating the greatest players in the football program’s first century. On March 24, 2007, he was inducted into the inaugural class of New Haven’s James Hillhouse High School Athletic Hall-of-Fame after earning all-state honors as a prep standout in the late 1970s.

49HOUSTON -- Houston suffered a 30-13 setback at the hands of Texas State in its season

opener in front of 32,207 fans at Robertson Stadium .Texas State jumped ahead early as Curry caught a 21-yard pass from Rutherford to cap an

eight-play, 65-yard drive .The Cougars countered with a 50-yard field goal from Matt Hogan, matching his career high

from 2009, but the Bobcats quickly answered on the first play of the next drive when Curry broke free for a 73-yard touchdown scamper to increase the Texas State advantage to 14-3 midway through the opening quarter .

Houston again cut into the Bobcat lead late in the first quarter when Piland found Larry McDuf-fey across the middle, racing 64 yards to the end zone on his first-career play from scrimmage.

The Cougars continued to play stellar defense after the break, limiting the Bobcats to just one rushing yard in the third quarter, but the offense couldn’t find a rhythm as the clock wound down .

HOUSTON -- Despite a career performance from Houston quarterback David Piland, the Cougars couldn’t overcome a slow start in a 56-49 loss to Louisiana Tech at Robertson Stadium .

Piland threw for a career-high and Robertson Stadium-record 580 yards and four touch-downs and completed 53 passes on a school-record 77 attempts . The sophomore set an NCAA record for pass attempts without an interception, formerly held by Houston great Case Keenum .

Piland hit freshman wide receiver Deontay Greenberry in the back of the end zone for a 12-yard score to move Houston to within a touchdown with 35 seconds left . However, the Cougars were called for touching the ball before it traveled 10 yards on the ensuing onsides kick to end the comeback .

14PASADENA, Calif. -- Houston’s David Piland completed 28 of 60 passes for 249 yards

with five interceptions, but No. 22 UCLA’s hard-hitting defense held high-scoring Houston as the Bruins beat the Cougars 37-6 .

Johnathan Franklin, the nation’s leading rusher, gained 110 yards on 25 carries, Sheldon Price tied a school record with three of UCLA’s five interceptions, and Ka’imi Fairbairn kicked three field goals to help the unbeaten Bruins earn their third straight victory under first-year coach Jim Mora .

Piland’s 86-yard run with 4:54 remaining kept the Cougars from being shut out for the first time in nearly 12 years .

The teams combined for 11 turnovers - six by Houston .The Bruins led 17-0 after a dominant first half. The lead might have been bigger but for three

second-quarter turnovers in Houston territory .UCLA went ahead for good on the game’s second play when linebacker Eric Kendricks re-

turned Piland’s errant backward pass intended for Ronnie Williams 23 yards for a touchdown .Houston was unable to capitalize after recovering fumbles at its 31 and 29 on the two con-

HOUSTON -- Charles Sims rushed for 158 yards and a career-high three touchdowns to lead the Houston to a 35-14 win against Rice inside Reliant Stadium .

With the win, the Cougars snapped a three-game losing skid and improved to 1-3 . More importantly, Houston improved to 1-0 in Conference USA play and won their league opener for the sixth time in the last seven seasons .

While the Cougar offense put Houston on the board, the defense was equally impressive early as Rice managed only 120 yards through the first 30 minutes. It was a Houston op-ponent’s lowest offensive output in the first half since the Cougars limited #22 Penn State to 115 yards at the 2012 TicketCity Bowl on Jan . 2 .

Houston continued to pour on the offense in the second half but went to the rushing game . Sims burst into the end zone from three yards out early in the third quarter and broke the game open with a 47-yard scamper on the Cougars’ next possession for a 28-0 Houston lead with 7:33 left .

With the win, Houston won its second straight game against Rice, a first since the 2006-07 seasons . The Cougars also scored at least 31 points for the eighth consecutive game against the Owls .

While the offense was compiling impressive numbers, the Cougar defense was equally superb . With a 14-0 advantage at the break, Houston held an opponent scoreless in the opening half for the first time since leading SMU 13-0 on Nov. 19, 2011.

NATIONAL AWARDS

In 1989 University of Houston junior quarterback André Ware was the recipient of the 55th annual Heisman Trophy.

The award, presented by the Downtown Athletic Club of New York, culminated a record-setting season in which Ware set 26 NCAA and 15 Southwest Conference records for passing and total offense.

He became the first Cougar and the fifth player from the Southwest Conference to win the Heisman, and he did it without playing a single game before live national television cameras.

Despite playing just a little more than the first half of most games, Ware completed 365-of-578 pass attempts (.631) for 4,699 yards and 46 touchdowns to lead the Cougars to a 9-2 season record and a No.14 national ranking.

The soft-spoken native of Dickinson, Texas, captured the nation’s imagination in his first full season as a starting quarterback, averaging over 427 yards passing per game and at one point attempting 154 straight passes without an interception.

A consensus First-Team All-American, Ware left Houston following his junior season to enter the NFL Draft, where he was a first-round and seventh overall pick by the Detroit Lions. He also played in the Canadian Football League before retiring.

In 1996, Ware returned to UH to earn his bachelor’s degree in marketing. Of that accomplishment Ware said, “This ranks right up there with receiving the Heisman Trophy.”

Ware was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2004.

Today, he can be heard as an analyst for ESPN college football on Saturdays and for Houston Texans radio broadcasts on Sundays during the NFL season.

After leading the University of Houston to the 1976 Southwest Conference Championship in the Cougars’ first season in the league, Wilson Whitley was honored with the Lombardi Award as the nation’s most outstanding college lineman.

Though double-teamed and often triple-teamed during the season, the 6-3, 268-pound Whitley routinely

dominated the line of scrimmage from his defensive tackle position. He led the team in quarterback sacks, fumbles caused and fumbles recovered, anchoring a defense that held the opposition to 10 or fewer points five times during the regular season.

In a near perfect defensive performance on the road against the University of Texas, Whitley and the Cougar defense held the Longhorns to eight total first downs and 24 net yards rushing en route to a 30-0 victory. Houston went on to defeat previously unbeaten Maryland in the Cotton Bowl to cap a 10-2 season.

Though 1976 was his one and only year of competition in the Southwest Conference, Whitley was named the league’s Player of the Decade for the 1970s. The native of Brenham, Texas, was the first and just one of three league players ever to win the Lombardi Award.

In the spring of 1976, Whitley was the eighth overall selection in the NFL Draft by the Cincinnati Bengals, with whom he played for six seasons.

After a seven-year professional football career, which also included one season with the Houston Oilers, Whitley served as the National Director of Sports Marketing with Holiday Inn, Inc., until he suffered a fatal heart attack in 1992.

He was inducted into the University’s Hall of Honor in 1998, the Texas High School Football Hall of Fame in 1985, and was a member of the Texas Football Magazine’s Silver Anniversary Team as both a high school and collegiate player.

He was enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame in July 2008.

BOWL RECAPS1952 SALAD BOWL

HOUSTON 26, DAYTON 21Jan. 1, 1952 • Montgomery Stadium • Phoenix, Ariz.

A crowd of 17,000 saw Houston defeat Dayton, 26-21, in the Fifth Annual Salad Bowl in Phoenix, Ariz., the Cougars’ first-ever bowl appearance. Houston’s Gene Shannon, a 1,000-yard rusher during the regular season, scored all four of the Cougars’ touchdowns and was named MVP of the contest.

Shannon rushed for 175 yards on 28 carries, including 129 yards in the first half. Behind the blocking of fellow running backs Randy Owens (who gained 76 yards on the day) and Warren Ramsey (83 yards), and linemen Howard Clapp, Buck Miller and Lloyd Holloway, Shannon gained more yards than the entire Dayton team.

Dayton took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a seven-yard run by Bobby Recker and Paul Spakowski’s extra point. Houston responded immediately with a 65-yard, six-play drive, with Shannon scoring on a 15-yard run with 10 seconds left in the first. Owens’ extra point try failed, and UH trailed 7-6 after one.

The Flyers added two more scores in the second period, including a touchdown with 44 seconds left in the half on a 36-yard pass from Frank Siggins to Ed Currin to cap a 70-yard drive. Houston countered with one score, on a Shannon 19-yard gallop, and the Cougars trailed 21-13 at the half.

The Houston defense, led by Jack Howton, asserted itself in the second half. Howton intercepted a pair of passes and recovered a fumble as the Cougar defense limited Dayton to just five yards rushing in the stanza.

UH pulled within one point, 21-20, on Shannon’s third rushing TD, a one-yard run at 9:40 of the third quarter. His run ended a seven-play, 72-yard drive, and Owens added the kick.

Another Shannon run provided the final points of the game and gave UH its first and only lead of the game. The senior’s 10-yard burst with 7:50 remaining in the third period provided the final margin as neither team was able to score in the fourth quarter.

1962 TANGERINE BOWLHOUSTON 49, MIAMI (OHIO) 21

Dec. 22, 1962 • Tangerine Bowl • Orlando, Fla.Under first-year head coach Bill Yeoman, Houston scored five straight touchdowns, including four

in the second quarter, to power the Cougars to a 49-21 victory over Miami of Ohio in the 17th Annual Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida.

Senior quarterback Billy Roland led the Cougars offense by completing 11-of-17 passes for 199 yards and three touchdowns to earn the game’s Most Valuable Player Award.

After Miami missed a field goal on its first drive, the Redskins took possession on the UH 28-yard line after an intercep-tion. UM took advantage of the turnover with a nine-yard touchdown pass to take a 7-0 lead.

After tying the game late in the first quarter on Joe Lopasky’s three-yard run and Bill McMillan’s extra-point, Houston’s Bobby Brezina scored a pair of touchdowns to start the UH onslaught. The Cougars took advantage of an interception by Bill Van Osdel, scoring on two plays from the Miami six. On Houston’s next drive, Roland hit Brezina with a 44-yard touchdown bomb to give UH a 21-7 lead.

The UH defense held again, and on the ensuing Miami punt, Lopasky took the ball back 70 yards for a touchdown and a 28-7 UH lead. The Cougars closed out the half with a 60-yard touchdown drive, ending with a four-yard pass from Roland to McMillan with 18 seconds left in the half. Houston took a 35-7 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Miami scored with 4:50 left in the third quarter to close the gap to 35-14 before Lopasky notched his third of four touchdowns on the day on a one-yard run. His score finished a 78-yard, six-play drive, while McMillan’s seventh PAT established a new school record.

Each team added a touchdown in the final stanza, Houston scoring on a 14-yard Roland to Lopasky hook-up.

BOWL HISTORY1969 BLUEBONNET BOWL

HOUSTON 36, AUBURN 7Dec. 31, 1969 • Houston Astrodome • Houston, Texas

A match-up between two of the top offensive teams in the country saw the Houston defense carry the day as the Cougars shut down Auburn to win the 1969 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl, 36-7, in the Astrodome. The crowd of 55,203 saw Bill Yeoman’s Cougars finish the year with their ninth straight victory and a No. 12 ranking in the final Associated Press poll.

Houston halfback Jim Strong gained 184 yards on 32 carries to lead the UH offense and gain MVP honors. Defensively, Glen Lewis and Ronny Peacock were the Cougars’ stars on a unit which allowed Auburn only one yard rush-ing in the game. Lewis recorded eight tackles and blocked a field goal while Peacock was in on four tackles and deflected four passes.

Auburn’s Terry Beasly fumbled the opening kickoff and Houston safety Nick Holm recov-ered to set up the Cougars’ first touchdown, a one-yard run by quarterback Gary Mullins just 3:30 into the game. Following an Auburn punt, the Cougars drove 70 yards in 14 plays and Carlos Lopez kicked a 27-yard field goal to give UH a 10-0 lead at the start of the second quarter.

The UH defense stymied Auburn and sophomore quarterback Pat Sullivan again on the Tigers’ next possession, forcing a punt. On first-and-10 from its own 16-yard line, Strong galloped 74 yards to the Auburn 10, setting up Houston’s second touchdown, which he scored on a one-yard run. Lopez’ PAT missed, but Houston led 16-0 with 11:44 remaining in the half.

The teams traded punts until Auburn’s Mickey Zofko completed a 36-yard halfback option pass to receiver Connie Frederick for the Tigers’ only score. At halftime, Houston led 16-7.

The Tigers would get no closer. Houston scored 20 points on three touchdowns in the second half. Ted Heiskell’s one-yard touchdown run came at the end of an eight-play, 71-yard drive. The two-point conversion pass failed, but UH led 22-7.

After a scoreless remainder of the quarter, Houston put the Tigers away on its first drive of the final period. Strong scored his second touchdown of the day, on a 12-yard run. A 20-yard pass from back-up quarterback Rusty Clark to Tommy Mozisek with 35 seconds left provided the final margin.

The two teams combined to break or tie 22 Bluebonnet Bowl records. Houston totaled 516 yards on 83 plays in the game, while Auburn netted just 189 total yards, including 188 passing.

1971 BLUEBONNET BOWLCOLORADO 29, HOUSTON 17

Dec. 31, 1971 • Houston Astrodome • Houston, Texas

Colorado’s 16 second-quarter points lifted the Buffaloes to a 29-17 victory over 15th-ranked Houston before a crowd of 54,720 in the Astrodome. The loss was Houston’s first in four bowl games and gave the Cougars a 9-3 final record.

Colorado tailback Charlie Davis led CU by rushing for a bowl-record 202 yards on 37 carries while Houston turned the ball over three times. Cougar tailback Robert Newhouse led the UH attack with 168 yards rushing on 35 carries and scored both Houston touchdowns on the day. Houston defensive lineman Butch Brezina was named the Cougars’ Most Outstanding Player with 10 total tackles and two passes broken up.

Davis put the Buffs on top early with a 27-yard touchdown run on Colorado’s first possession after a 70-yard, nine-play drive. J.B. Dean added the extra point to give CU a 7-0 lead.

Houston responded with a 79-yard, 15-play drive. Newhouse scored from the two after gaining 42 yards on the drive, and Ricky Terrell kicked the PAT to tie the game at seven. UH linebacker Bill Hamrick inter-cepted Colorado quarterback Ken Johnson to set up the Cougars’ second touchdown, a five-yard Newhouse run with 1:14 left in the first quarter.

Colorado got the ball back and drove 61 yards in 10 plays, with Larry Brunson scoring on a five-yard pass from Johnson to pull CU within one. J.B. Dean’s extra point failed and the Cougars clung to a 14-13 lead.

Colorado took the lead for good on its next possession. Johnson’s 38-yard run on the quarterback keeper keyed an 80-yard, 15-play drive and Dean hit a 32-yard field goal with 5:03 left in the half to give CU a 16-13 lead.

After Houston fumbled the ball on the kickoff, Colorado went on the attack again. Davis scored on a one-yard run, and Dean added the PAT for a 23-14 lead that would prove to be insurmountable.

Houston drove to the Colorado 14 to open the third period, but tight end Riley Odoms fumbled and the Buffs’ Lorne Richardson recovered to stymie the Cougars. The teams traded punts until Hous-ton took advantage of a Davis fumble, Terrell hitting a 29-yard field goal for the only score of the third.

The Cougars would get no closer as Johnson scored for the Buffaloes with 3:48 left in the game to account for the final 12-point margin.

BOWL HISTORY1973 BLUEBONNET BOWL

HOUSTON 47, TULANE 7Dec. 29, 1973 • Houston Astrodome • Houston, Texas

Houston topped off its winningest season ever by overwhelming Tulane, 47-7, in the 15th Annual Bluebonnet Bowl. With its victory over the Green Wave, the Cougars finished the season 11-1, which still ranks as one of the top two years in UH history.

Bill Yeoman’s potent Triple Veer offense was at its best again in the Bluebonnet Bowl as a pair of players — Marshall Johnson and Donnie McGraw — gained over 100 yards rushing in the game. In all, the Cougars piled up 655 yards of total offense, including 402 on the ground. Flanker Bryan Willingham collected 105 yards on three catches while quarterback D.C. Nobles completed eight-of-13 passes for 201 yards.

Johnson gave early notice that it would be a long night for Tulane by speeding 75 yards on the Cougars’ second offensive play to give UH a 7-0 lead. The Cougars extended that lead to 21-0 in the second period on a pair of Leonard Parker runs.

Tulane got on the scoreboard just be-fore halftime on a 32-yard pass from Buddy Gilbert to Tom Fortner, cutting Houston’s margin to 21-7 at the half.

The Cougars tallied four more rushing touchdowns in the second half while the UH defense held Tulane scoreless. Line-backer Deryl McGallion led the Houston defense on the day and was named the Most Outstanding Defensive Player. Houston forced nine Tulane punts and allowed the Green Wave only 10 first downs and 173 total yards on the day. Cougar defenders picked off four Tulane passes.

Quarterback Nobles scored on a keeper with 6:42 left in the third period to extend Houston’s lead to 28-7. After a turnover, McGraw scored the first of his two touchdowns on a one-yard run with 5:28 left in the third.

McGraw added a 32-yard touchdown run to start the fourth quarter while backup QB David Husmann ended the scoring with a seven-yard run in the fourth.

A crowd of 44,358 saw UH post its record-setting 11th win and finish the year ranked ninth in the final Associated Press poll.

1974 BLUEBONNET BOWLHOUSTON 31, NC STATE 31

Dec. 23, 1974 • Houston Astrodome • Houston, Texas

In an offensive shootout at the 16th Annual Bluebonnet Bowl, Houston and North Carolina State combined to score 35 points in the final quarter on the way to a 31-31 tie before a crowd of 35,122 at the Astrodome.

The crowd saw the two teams pile up 876 yards of total offense, includ-ing 479 yards on the ground, with 45 first downs. Houston’s John Housman gained 134 yards rushing on 21 carries and added a pair of touchdown runs as UH finished the year with an 8-3-1 overall record.

The first quarter was far from an indication of things to come as NC State earned the only points of the period on a 37-yard field goal by John Huff with 6:48 on the clock.

The Cougars evened the score early in the second stanza on Lennard Coplin’s 21-yard field goal. Housman gained 38 yards on the drive that stalled at the NC State three.

The Wolfpack took a 10-3 halftime lead, but had been out-gained by UH, 175-123. Houston tied the score at 10 on a one-yard run by Housman at 9:32 of the third quarter. NC State came right back with a scoring drive of its own, with Dave Buckey hooking up with fullback Stan Fritts for the seven-yard touchdown pass to take the lead.

Then, the fireworks began. Houston tied the score on the first play of the fourth quarter on a 10-yard Johnson run, capping a 75-yard drive. Two possessions later, the Cougars took their first lead of the game on a Bluebonnet Bowl record 73-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Bubba McGallion to split end Eddie Foster. Coplin added the extra point and UH led, 24-17.

The Cougars extended their lead to 31-17 after an interception and 41-yard return by free safety Joe Rust gave UH the ball on the NC State 16-yard line. Four plays later, Housman hit paydirt on a five-yard run and UH led by two touchdowns.

NC State came back after a McGallion fumble stopped a UH drive. A couple of Buckey to George Gantt completions set up fullback Tommy London for a 9-yard touchdown run with 3:38 left in the game. The Wolfpack’s 2-point conversion attempt failed, and Houston held on to a 31-23 lead.

The ensuing onside kick was recovered by State and after two plays netted 19 yards, Buckey hit tight end Pat Hovance with a 27-yard pass to the one. He scored on a quarterback sneak and Fritts ran for the 2-point conversion to tie the game.

Houston’s comeback attempt died when McGallion was sacked and the Cougars punted with 27 seconds remaining. Buckey’s last-ditch pass was intercepted by Rust, who fell to the ground as time ran out, ending one of the most exciting bowl games in school history.

BOWL HISTORY1977 COTTON BOWL

HOUSTON 30, MARYLAND 21Jan. 1, 1977 • Cotton Bowl • Dallas , Texas

Houston stunned the Southwest Conference by winning the conference title in its first year of competition in the league, earning its first trip to a New Year’s Day bowl. Then, the Cougars stunned fifth-ranked and undefeated Maryland, 30-21, in the 41st Annual Cotton Bowl Classic to achieve its highest final national ranking ever.

UH jumped out to a quick 21-0 lead on the Terps, and that lead, as well as a strong defensive showing in the second half, car-ried the Cougars to victory. Running backs Alois Blackwell and Dyral Thomas each gained over 100 yards with Blackwell’s 149 yards on 22 carries leading Houston. His success came against a Maryland defense ranked second in the nation in rushing de-fense, and he was named the game’s Most Valuable Offensive Player. UH cornerback Mark Mohr, who made seven tackles, broke up two passes, blocked a punt and recovered a fumble, was the Defensive MVP.

Houston’s first score came on an 11-yard run by Thomas with 6:27 to go in the first quarter. The Cougars drove 80 yards in 11 plays with Blackwell’s 23-yard gain highlighting the march.

Mohr blocked Maryland punter Mike Sochko’s kick, giving UH possession on the 38. Two plays later, Blackwell broke through a hole and went 33 yards for the touchdown.

Another Maryland mistake, this one a fumble on the kickoff recovered by Mohr, returned the ball to Houston on the Terps 24-yard line. Five straight rushing plays resulted in Blackwell’s one-yard run and a 21-0 UH lead. Maryland had surrendered only 22 total points in the first quarter in the first 11 games of the year.

Maryland came back with a six-yard scoring run by quarterback Mark Manges. Both defenses tightened and the teams exchanged punts until Houston began a drive at its own three-yard line with 3:17 left in the half. A pair of runs by Davis and Blackwell netted 29 yards, and on second-and-six from the Maryland 33, split end Don Bass grabbed Davis’ pass (one of just two first-half passes) and went the distance. Lennard Coplin’s kick failed, but Houston owned a 27-7 halftime lead.

Maryland drove to the Houston four on its first possession of the second half, but on fourth and goal UM wingback Chuck White was stopped short of the goal line by UH’s Vincent Greenwood. Thomas fumbled, giving Maryland the ball on the UH 35. This time the Terps converted with an 11-yard completion from Manges to tight end Eric Sievers.

Another UH fumble put Maryland on the Houston 30 three series later, and again the Terps capitalized. Fullback Tim Wilson went over from the one, and the extra point closed the UH lead to 27-21 with 8:46 left in the game.

After a punt by each team, Houston regained the ball on its own seven and embarked on a 14-play, 81-yard drive that would result in a game-clinching field goal by Coplin. The key play came on fourth-and-one on the Maryland 41 with 1:56 left when Thomas went 32 yards for the first down. When the drive stalled at the 12, Coplin hit a 28-yard field goal to seal the win and the No. 4 final ranking.

1979 COTTON BOWLNOTRE DAME 35, HOUSTON 34

Jan. 1, 1979 • Cotton Bowl • Dallas , Texas

In bone-chilling cold, Notre Dame made one of the greatest comebacks in bowl history, scor-ing 23 points in the final 7:37 to record a 35-34 win over Houston in the 43rd Annual Cotton Bowl Classic. The game will be forever re-membered, not only for the cold and the comeback, but as the “coming out” party for Fighting Irish quarter-back Joe Montana, who would go on to become one of the best quarter-backs in NFL history.

The Irish scored the game-win-ning touchdown with no time left on the clock when Montana tossed an eight-yard pass to split end Kris Haines. Kicker Joe Unis’ PAT provided the difference in a heart-wrenching loss for UH.

Houston had scored 34 straight points after Notre Dame took a 12-0 lead in the first quarter. The Irish scored on a three-yard Montana run and a one-yard rush by fullback Pete Buchanan on successive drives in the first to take the lead. Both conversion attempts failed.

After ND’s Dave Waymer fumbled a punt, Houston gained the ball on the Notre Dame 12, and two plays later, quarterback Danny Davis threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to split end Willis Adams. The score stood at 12-7 at the end of the first quarter.

A bevy of fumbles, interceptions and near interceptions marked second quarter action with most of the balls bouncing Houston’s way. On fourth-and-goal, fullback Randy Love bulled over from the one to cap a six-play, 21-yard drive and give UH a 14-12 lead. Kenny Hatfield intercepted a Montana pass on the next possession and his 25-yard return put the Cougars on the Notre Dame 25. Hatfield was true on the 21-yard field goal.

Another Montana interception led to Hatfield’s second three-pointer of the quarter, and a 20-12 UH halftime lead. The field goal, with just three seconds left in the half, came after a 39-yard, seven-play drive highlighted by a 16-yard completion from Davis to Eric Herring. Hatfield hit the cross bar, but his 34-yarder bounced over and was good.

Houston scored on a pair of Davis runs in the third period. His first score, from two yards out, ended a 38-yard, eight-play drive. UH’s Bobby Harrison blocked Notre Dame kicker Dick Boushka’s punt and the Cougars turned that turnover into seven points on Davis’ five-yard touchdown run at 4:40.

The fourth quarter was a battle of field position until Notre Dame blocked UH punter Jay Wyatt’s kick and took over on the Houston 11. Three plays resulted in a loss of three yards and on fourth-and-13 from the UH 14, Montana’s pass was incomplete. However, UH could not move the ball, and Wyatt’s next punt was also blocked. This one was recovered by Irish strong safety Steve Cichy and returned 33 yards for a Notre Dame touchdown. The two point conversion from Montana to Vagas Ferguson was good and Houston’s lead stood at 34-20.

Notre Dame’s defense held, forcing another Wyatt punt. Montana completed two passes for 47 yards, then used a pass interference call to reach the Houston three. On third down from the two, Montana scampered in for the score. He then hit Haines with the two-point conversion pass to make it a six-point game.

Houston was forced to punt again, but the Irish’s next drive ended when Montana fumbled with less than two minutes on the clock and UH’s Tommy Ebner recovered. Houston advanced to its 29, and on fourth-and-one, sent running back Emmett King over left tackle to try and run out the clock. King was stopped for no gain, and Notre Dame and Montana had 29 yards to go in 28 seconds.

Montana gained 11 yards around right end on first down, then passed for 10 to Haines. After an incompletion, the Notre Dame QB hit Haines from eight yards out for the tying score. Unis’ PAT completed the comeback.

BOWL HISTORY1980 COTTON BOWL

HOUSTON 17, NEBRASKA 14Jan. 1, 1980 • Cotton Bowl • Dallas , Texas

Houston quarterback Terry Elston hit Eric Herring with a six-yard touchdown pass with 12 seconds left to give the Cougars a 17-14 victory over seventh-ranked Nebraska in the 1980 Cot-ton Bowl. The victory lifted UH to an 11-1 record on the year, tying the most wins in school history, and a No. 5 final national ranking.

The Houston defense limited a po-tent Nebraska offense to just 227 yards on the day, less than half of their season average. The Cornhuskers, featuring Jarvis Redwine and I.M. Hipp, gained just 136 yards on 41 carries and tallied only 13 first downs in the game. Elston led Houston with 87 yards rushing on 22 carries while fullback John Newhouse added 64 yards. Herring caught five passes for 51 yards.

Nebraska jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a nine-yard scoring run by Redwine. The teams then traded punts until Houston tied the game on Elston’s eight-yard run and Kenny Hat-field’s extra point at 12:17 of the second quarter. Elston’s 27-yard pass to Lonell Phea on third-and-six to the Nebraska 15 proved to be the key play of the drive.

Through the next two quarters, the teams traded punts and turnovers with neither team reaching its opponents’ 30. The entire third quarter, in fact, was a series of “three and outs.”

Then Houston embarked on a 59-yard, 13-play drive that resulted in a 41-yard Hatfield field goal. Again, Elston hit Phea for a gain of 20 on the drive, which reached the Nebraska 24 before Hatfield’s kick. Houston took a 10-7 lead with 8:25 left.

Houston forced another Nebraska punt, but gave the ball back one play later when Newhouse fumbled. From first down on the Houston 31, the Cornhuskers drove to the six, where Quinn hit tight end Jeff Finn with a six-yard touchdown pass. Dean Sukup added the extra point to give NU a 14-10 lead with less than four minutes to play.

Starting on its own 34, the Cougars began a purposeful march downfield. Twice, they converted on third downs until reaching the Nebraska 20 with 59 seconds to play. An Elston to Herring hookup gained 11, but the next three plays netted just five yards, and the Cougars faced fourth-and-goal from the six with 19 seconds left.

Then Elston found Herring cutting across the goal line for the touchdown, and Hatfield added the extra point to give UH a come-from-behind Cotton Bowl victory of its own.

1980 GARDEN STATE BOWLHOUSTON 35, NAVY 0

Dec. 22, 1980 • Giants Stadium • East Rutherford, N.J.

Houston put on one of its most impressive offensive and defensive performances of the season in downing Navy, 35-0, in Garden State Bowl III at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.

Running back Terald Clark sparked the offense with 163 yards on 26 carries and three touchdowns, while All-America linebacker Leonard Mitchell made key tackles, recovered a fumble and broke up a pass to lead UH defensively. The Cougars gained 405 of their 450 yards on the ground, while limiting Navy to just 200 yards in total offense. Navy had brought the nation’s sixth-rated defense and 10th-best rushing defense into the game, but turnovers and special teams blunders cost the Midshipmen.

Houston scored on its first drive, going 31 yards on eight plays after a Navy fumble to take a 7-0 lead. Clark scored on a one-yard run and Jeff Shaffer added the PAT.

A blocked punt by UH’s Leo Truss helped lead to Houston’s next score, a one-yard effort by quarterback Terry Elston. Clark gained 25 yards on the 43-yard drive as all 10 plays were on the ground. The Cougars took a 14-0 lead after one quarter.

Houston added two more touchdowns in the second period, while Navy kicker Steve Fehr missed a 27-yard field goal, spoiling the Middies’ best scoring chance of the day. At 7:51 of the second quarter, Houston’s David Barrett scored on a 14-yard run after a 69-yard, seven-play drive.

Navy fumbled the ball on the kickoff and UH’s Calvin Eason recovered on the Navy 26. Clark went all 26 yards on the first play behind a block by guard Jeff Faniel, and Elston scored the two-point conversion on a keeper to give UH a 28-0 halftime lead.

The Cougars scored the final points of the contest on their first drive of the second half. After a 71-yard, 13-play march, Clark scored from the two to notch his third touchdown of the day and give UH an insurmountable 35-0 lead.

Clark, a senior, was named the game’s Most Outstanding Player.

BOWL HISTORY1981 SUN BOWL

OKLAHOMA 40, HOUSTON 14Dec. 26, 1981 • Sun Bowl • El Paso, Texas

Oklahoma scored 30 points in the fourth quarter to break open a close game and hand Houston its worst bowl defeat ever, 40-14, at the 47th Annual Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas.

Oklahoma’s Fred Sims gained 181 yards on 15 carries and quarterback Darrell Shepard added 107 yards and two rushing touch-downs to lead the Sooners. UH quarterback Lionel Wilson completed 17-of-28 passes for 216 yards to lead the Cougar offense, but Houston committed four turnovers in the game, including one very costly one.

A fumble on what looked like a sure Houston touchdown proved to be the turning point in the game. Following the fumble, Oklahoma scored on four straight possessions to cement the victory.

Trailing 10-7, UH halfback Robert Durham caught a Wilson pass at the OU 47-yard line and had open territory to the end zone. But Oklahoma defender Elbert Watts knocked the ball loose at the three and it went out of the end zone for a touchback. Oklahoma took over on its 20 and advanced quickly to the Cougar nine on Shepard’s 42-yard run. Three plays later, Shepard went one yard up the middle for the touchdown and a 17-7 Oklahoma lead.

From there the wheels began to come off. After a 14-yard Houston punt, Oklahoma’s Michael Keeling ended a Sooner drive by kicking his second field goal of the day – this from 49 yards out – to boost the Sooners’ lead to 20-7.

The Cougars’ next possession ended in a fumble, and Sims soon broke a 30-yard run for a score and a 27-7 Oklahoma lead. Houston answered with its last touchdown of the day, going 74 yards on 13 plays. Donald Jordan scored on a six-yard run and Mike Clendenen added the point after, but UH trailed 27-14 with less than three minutes remaining.

Oklahoma recovered UH’s onside kick attempt and Sims ripped off another long run, this one of 48 yards, to set up Ron Mills’ two-yard score. Keeling missed the PAT, but it was the only thing that went wrong for OU in the quarter. The Sooners scored their final touchdown on a 28-yard interception return by defensive end John Truitt, ending a nightmare quarter for Houston.

Shepard was named the game’s MVP. Houston ended its season, the third straight in which it went to a bowl game, with a 7-4-1 record.

1985 COTTON BOWLBOSTON COLLEGE 45, HOUSTON 28

Jan. 1, 1985 • Cotton Bowl • Dallas, Texas

Heisman Trophy winner Doug Flutie brought his Boston College Eagles to Dallas, but it was the rushing of Flutie’s backfield mates that proved the difference in BC’s 45-28 victory over Houston in the 49th Annual Cotton Bowl.

Flutie threw for 180 yards and three touchdowns, but completed only 13-of-37 throws on the day and was intercepted twice. Running backs Troy Stradford and Mike Strachan teamed to doom Houston; Stradford gained 196 yards on 20 carries while Strachan added 91 yards on 23 rushes and was named the game’s MVP.

The game was a series of scoring runs. Boston College would jump out to an advantage, and Houston would battle back. The pattern continued until the fourth quarter when the Eagles would not let UH answer after it extended a 31-28 lead to the final margin of 45-28.

Boston College jumped out to a 14-0 first quarter advantage on a pair of Flutie touchdown passes. A 63-yard completion to Kelvin Martin started the scoring, and an eight-yard pass from Flutie to Stradford followed a UH fumble. Houston answered immedi-ately when Earl Allen took the ensuing kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown. Mike Clendenen kicked the extra point, and the Cougars trailed 14-7.

An interception by the Eagles led to a 31-yard field goal by BC’s Kevin Snow at the end of the first quarter.

Boston College added two touchdowns to extend its lead to 31-7. Flutie hit Gerard Phelan, who caught seven passes in the first half, over the middle for a 13-yard touchdown after driving BC 53 yards in five plays. UH quarterback Gerald Landry was then intercepted on Houston’s next play, and once again Boston College capitalized. Strachan scored on a two-yard run after Flutie had picked up 27 yards on a scramble to the two.

Houston came back before the half when Landry hit Larry Shepherd with a 15-yard touchdown pass. Landry’s 38-yard completion to tight end Carl Hilton was the biggest play of the UH scoring drive.

The Cougars made it close in the third. After five punts to start the period, Houston mounted a scoring march, thanks to a 26-yard Landry to Hilton completion and a 33-yard run by Raymond Tate to set up Tate’s two-yard touchdown jaunt. Then, Audrey McMillian intercepted a Flutie pass at the Boston College 25 and took it back for the touchdown, bringing the Cougars within three at 31-28.

On Houston’s next possession, a couple of costly penalties hurt the Cougars and slowed their momentum. Boston College, uncharacteristically, went to its running game, and nine straight rushes resulted in a four-yard Strachan touchdown and a 38-28 BC lead.

Another turnover stopped the Cougars and they were unable to take advantage of Flutie’s second interception of the half. Stradford provided the final margin when he scored on an 18-yard run with 1:08 remaining.

Hilton caught five passes for 97 yards for UH, which finished the season with a 7-5 record.

BOWL HISTORY1988 ALOHA BOWL

WASHINGTON STATE 24, HOUSTON 22Dec. 25, 1988 • Aloha Bowl • Honolulu, Hawai’i

In a battle of Cougars, Washington State scored 24 points in the second quarter and shut down Houston’s potent run-and-shoot offense to claim a 24-22 win in the 1988 Aloha Bowl in Honolulu, Hawai’i.

Washington State piled up 216 yards rushing and added 154 through the air while hold-ing UH to 68 rushing yards and 309 yards overall. Tailback Steve Broussard led WSU with 139 yards on the ground, and QB Timm Rosenbach threw for 306.

James Dixon started the game off well for UH by taking the opening kickoff 84 yards to the Washington State 15-yard line. The Cougars advanced to the 10 before Roman Anderson’s 27-yard field goal gave UH a 3-0 lead.

Washington State drove to the UH four, but Rosenbach was sacked, and his fumble was recovered by Houston’s Keith Jenkins. The teams traded punts until WSU’s Vernon Todd intercepted an André Ware pass at his own 45-yard line. Brous-sard bobbled a handoff and fumbled at the UH five, but WSU flanker Victor Wood recovered and took the ball the remaining five yards for the touchdown.

After forcing a Houston punt, WSU started on an 80-yard drive. Rosenbach hit Wood from 15 yards out with 8:39 left in the half, and Jason Hanson’s PAT made it WSU 14, UH 3. Ware’s next pass was intercepted and returned to the Houston 15. Hanson’s 33-yard field goal extended the Cougars’ lead to 17-3.

Houston pulled to within eight on its next possession when Ware hit Jason Phillips for a 44-yard completion and Chuck Weatherspoon scored on a one-yard run for UH’s first touchdown of the day. However, Roman Anderson missed what would prove to be a crucial extra point attempt following Weatherspoon’s score.

Washington State answered with a 10-play, 75-yard drive before halftime. Rosenbach scored from the one, and WSU led 24-9 at the break.

Houston’s Cougars were not able to mount a drive in the third quarter until David Dacus replaced Ware with 6:07 on the clock. He quickly hit Kevin Mason with a 53-yard bomb down the right sideline. After a failed conversion pass, Houston trailed 24-15.

Washington State penetrated to the Houston eight, where Alton Montgomery stepped in front of a Rosenbach pass at the goal line and took it all the way back to the WSU 28 for a 72-yard return. Weatherspoon and Dacus combined to take the Cougars the rest of the way, with Weatherspoon earning the touchdown on a shovel pass from Dacus. After the Anderson PAT, Houston trailed by two with 13:16 left in the game.

Washington State’s next drive stalled on the UH 34, where Rosenbach’s pass on fourth and three fell incomplete. Houston was unable to sustain a drive and the teams exchanged punts. Houston got the ball back with 5:16 left and drove from its own 20 to the WSU 31. From there, Dacus hit Dixon with a 21-yard pass to the 10. Dixon eluded one tackle, but was hit by linebacker Tuineau Alipate and fumbled. The ball rolled to the five, where it was recovered by WSU’s Artie Holmes with 2:44 left. WSU ran out the clock to secure the 24-22 victory.

1996 LIBERTY BOWLSYRACUSE 30, HOUSTON 17

Dec. 26, 1996 • Liberty Bowl • Memphis, Tenn.

Houston’s return to post-season play in the 38th Annual St. Jude Liberty Bowl marked a remarkable turnaround for the UH program under Kim Helton.

The Cougars headed into Memphis as one of the hottest teams in the country having won their last three games of the season to earn a share of the Conference USA championship.

On this day the rushing attack of the Orangemen proved to be too much for Houston’s defense as UH fell to Syracuse 30-17 in front of 49,163 fans at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium and an ESPN national television audience.

Syracuse struck first after the ini-tial kickoff with a four-play, 80-yard touchdown scoring drive. Quarterback Donovan McNabb scored from one yard out to put SU on top 7-0.

Houston returned the favor on its first drive of the game with a four-play, 77-yard scoring drive of its own. Quar-terback Chuck Clements hit tailback Antowain Smith twice, including a touchdown reception of 21 yards to even the score at 7-7. A Clements to Scott Regimbald 51-yard pass put the Cougars in scoring position to set up Smith’s reception.

With 9:02 left in the second period, the SU rushing attack struck again when fullback Rob Konrad reached the end zone to up the score to 14-7. Later in the quarter Syracuse extended its lead to 16-7 after a snap sailed over the head of Houston punter Ignacio Sauceda as he stood deep in UH territory.

Houston came back before halftime as Smith rushed three times for 63 yards, including a 51-yard jaunt from UH’s 46-yard line to SU’s 3. He finished the drive with a three-yard touchdown run to pull Houston within two points going into the lockerroom.

The second half was far less eventful as both teams went scoreless in the third quarter. It was not until the clock read 13:52 in the final period that Syracuse’s McNabb scored his second touchdown of the day, on a two-yard run, to give the Orangemen a 23-14 lead.

Houston was only able to put three more points on the board as Sebastian Villarreal hit a 23-yard field goal with 10:50 left in the game.

As it turned out, the ground game of Syracuse was just too much for the Cougar defense. Thomas rushed into the endzone from six yards out to put an end to the day’s scoring at 30-17.

BOWL HISTORY2003 SHERATON HAWAI’I BOWL

HAWAI’I 54, HOUSTON 48 (3 OT)Dec. 25, 2003 • Aloha Stadium • Honolulu, Hawai’i

In an “Instant Classic” performance, the University of Houston and the University of Hawai’i battled for over four hours and three overtimes before the Warriors concluded Christmas Day with a 54-48 win over the Cougars.

The fact that the game made it to over-time was a testament to the never-say-die attitude of the Cougars. With Hawai’i ahead by seven in the waning moments of regulation, the Cougars eventful season looked to be over as the Warriors lined up for a 29-yard field with just over a minute to play. When the field-goal attempt went wide, the Cougars still had a chance. And, the Red and White did not disappoint.

In what will be described as “Vincent’s Run”, the Cougars tied the game up on a miraculous play. Facing a third-and-11 from their own 19-yard line with less than 30 seconds left to play, Kevin Kolb found Vincent Marshall on a quick pass that Marshall turned into an 81-yard touchdown as he outraced the Warrior secondary to tie the game.

Both teams scored touchdowns in both the first and second overtimes, setting the stage for the dramatic third overtime. The Warriors took the lead on an eight-yard run by Michael Brewster, but UH’s Will Gulley intercepted Hawai’i’s two-point attempt.

The Cougars took over on their posses-sion, needing a touchdown to send it to a fourth overtime, but more importantly, could get the two points needed for the victory; however, the Cougars failed to convert on fourth down.

Houston jumped on the board first after taking the opening kickoff and driving down the field to score first. Kolb hooked up with Chad McCullar from 34 yards out to give Houston a quick 7-0 lead. A Dustin Bell field goal on the next possession increased the lead to 10-0.

The Warriors tied the score up by scoring the game’s next 10 points on a 19-yard field goal and a 48 yard pass from Timmy Chang, who relieved starter Jason Whieldon, to Clifton Herbert.

The Cougars regained the lead on the first of three rushing touchdowns by Jackie Battle, and then increased their advantage to 20-10 with Bell’s second field goal on the afternoon.

Hawai’i took control of the game by scoring 17 unanswered points, including two more scoring tosses by Chang. After an exchange of touchdowns by Houston and Hawai’i, the Warriors took the lead again when Chang hooked up with Jason Ribers from four yards out with less than 10 minutes to play, which set the stage for Marshall’s heroics.

Battle was named the MVP for the Cougars after rushing for a career-high 124 yards and three touchdowns.

2005 FORT WORTH BOWLKANSAS 42, HOUSTON 13

Dec. 23, 2005 • Amon G. Carter Stadium • Fort Worth , Texas

Jason Swanson threw for 307 yards and four touchdowns, one more than he had in the regular season, and the Kansas Jayhawks beat Houston 42-13 in the Fort Worth Bowl for their first winning season and first bowl victory in 10 years.

Tailback Jon Cornish turned two shovel passes from Swanson into scores, and also rushed for 101 yards on 16 carries. Brian Murph, who hadn’t returned a kick all season, turned a muffed punt into an 85-yard score in the first quarter that put the Jayhawks (7-5) ahead to stay. He also caught a 48-yard TD pass.

Houston (6-6) has lost six straight bowls since winning the 1980 Garden State Bowl.

Swanson started his fifth straight game, going 19-for-29 in his fourth victory and earning MVP honors. The senior was the third starting quarterback used by Kansas this year. He hurt his leg during the preseason, but took over in late October after Adam Barrman and Brian Luke struggled.

Cougars junior quarterback Kevin Kolb started his 36th straight game and became the career total offense leader at the school where David Klingler and André Ware also threw passes. Kolb was 20-of-44 passing for 214 yards with three interceptions, all turned into scores by Kansas.

Kolb had a 1-yard sneak for Houston’s only touchdown. The Cougars were held to a season-worst 244 total yards after leading Conference USA with 457 a game during the regular season. Kansas had 538 yards.

Charlton Keith got between Kolb and his intended receiver on a quick-out pass in the fourth quarter. He jumped up and grabbed the pass, then sprinted 14 yards and dived into the end zone.

Theo Barnes had two interceptions for the Jayhawks. The first set up Cornish’s 30-yard TD catch in the third quarter, and the second led to Murph’s TD catch with 9 minutes left for the final touchdown.

Five minutes into the game, Murph muffed a punt. The ball rolled several yards away from him before he picked it up, circled around several defenders and ran all the way to the left sideline. He then cut back across the field and slipped past a tackler into the open.

Swanson had completions of 31 and 19 yards on the first two plays, but the Jayhawks didn’t get another first down on the opening drive. The Cougars then went three-and-out before Justin Laird’s 57-yard punt that Murph muffed.

Cornish’s first TD was a 13-yard play in the second quarter. Mark Simmons added a 32-yard score in the third when he caught Swanson’s pass near the 20, then was free when he twisted inside and the defender slipped.

BOWL HISTORY2006 AUTOZONE LIBERTY BOWL

SOUTH CAROLINA 44, HOUSTON 36Dec. 29, 2006 • Liberty Bowl • Memphis, Tenn.

With 56,103 in attendance, the University of Houston football team took to the field De-cember 29, 2006 at the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tenn. Houston faced off against the South Carolina Gamecocks of the SEC in just the third-ever meeting between the two schools.

After scoring four touchdowns in the first half, Houston was unable to hold off the Gamecocks, falling 44-36, in what CollegeFootballNews.com named the 4th-best bowl game of 2006.

The Cougars took an early lead off a 32-yard pass from Kevin Kolb to Vincent Marshall on their first drive of the game. But, the Gamecocks responded late in the first quarter on their second drive with a 2-yard touchdown run by Cory Boyd.

Down a touchdown in the second quarter, Kolb connected with Mark Haf-ner on a 4-yard pass to even the game at 14 all. Houston would regain the lead with 2:09 left in the first half when Jackie Battle scored from 42 yards out, running untouched to the end zone.

With the first half winding down, Houston scored again when Marshall broke away for a 77-yard touchdown run. It was the longest catch in the Liber-ty Bowl since 1997, when Pittsburgh had an 89-yard pass against Southern Miss.

With 55 points scored in the first half, Houston and South Carolina combined for the highest scoring half in Liberty Bowl history.

The third quarter proved to be all about defense. South Carolina scored the only points of the quarter on a 45-yard field goal by Ryan Succop. They took that momentum into the fourth quarter, scoring two touch-downs. The Gamecock’s Blake Mitchell connected with Kenny McKinley on both scoring plays.

The Cougars pulled within eight points with just under six minutes left in the game, when Battle scored on a 3-yard run and Anthony Alridge completed the two-point conversion; how-ever, it wouldn’t be enough as South Carolina held off Houston for the win.

“We were very excited and anxious about the game, and I think we performed well as a foot-ball team. In a couple of instances we had a couple of unforced errors that I will take the fall for. But, just like our team has all season long; we battled hard. Our guys played hard, they fought hard, they believed. That’s an inspiration to me as a coach,” head coach Art Briles said after the game.

The two teams combined for 1,039 yards of total offense, the most ever in Liberty Bowl his-tory. Houston gained 527 yards and the Gamecocks had 512.

Kolb was named Houston’s Outstanding Offensive Player after completing 26-of-39 passes for 386 yards and three touchdowns. With his three tackles, one interception and one pass break up, Willie Gaston was named Houston’s Outstanding Defensive Player.

2007 TEXAS BOWLTCU 20, HOUSTON 13

Dec. 28, 2007 • Reliant Stadium • Houston, Texas

The Cougars had a late rally come up short and dropped a 20-13 decision to TCU in the 2007 Texas Bowl at Reliant Stadium.

Houston pulled within seven after a 32-yard field goal from T.J. Lawrence with 1:57 left in the game. TCU (8-5) won its eighth-straight game over Houston, dating back to 1993.

The Cougars got the ball back with 1:32 left after a three-and-out stand by the defense and started from their own two-yard line.

Case Keenum engineered a seven-play 79-yard drive that had the Cou-gars at the TCU 19-yard line with 14 seconds remaining. UH had three shots at the end zone but came up short on all three.

Donnie Avery made four catches for 60 yards in the march down the field. He finished with 10 catches for 120 yards.

Keenum threw a fade into the end zone that was just over the finger tips of Jeron Harvey and couldn’t connect on a jump ball to L.J. Castile. On the game’s final play, Keenum was flushed out of the pocket and hit as he threw by TCU’s Chase Ortiz and the ball ended up in the dirt, handing the Cougars their eighth-straight bowl defeat.

Keenum finished 23-of-38 for a career best and Texas Bowl record 335 yards and a touchdown. He was sacked five times on the night. He also set bowl records for completions (23), attempts (38) and longest touchdown pass (67 yards).

Rocky Schwartz led all players with a Texas Bowl record 16 tackles including 15 solo stops.Leading 10-7 at halftime, the Cougars struggled offensively in the third quarter tallying 19

yards and one first down.TCU tied things up at 10 after Chris Manfredini hit a 29-yard field goal with 4:56 left in the

third quarter.The Horned Frogs added 10 more points in the fourth quarter after a seven-yard run by Justin

Watts with 14:28 left and a 36-yard field goal from Manfredini with 7:28 left in the game.The Cougars opened up the scoring in the game late in the first quarter after Keenum con-

nected with Andre Kohn on a 67-yard touchdown strike. The play capped a two-play drive that took just 57 seconds. It was the longest play from scrimmage in Texas Bowl history.

TCU tied things up with 10:24 left in the half after Andy Dalton called an 11-play 75-yard drive with a three-yard touchdown scamper. Dalton, the Texas Bowl MVP, finished 20-for-30 for 249 yards and an interception. He also added 14 yards rushing and was sacked twice.

Houston took a 10-7 lead on the heels of a 36-yard field goal by Lawrence with 10 seconds left in the first half.

Anthony Alridge was held to a season-low 29 yards rushing and four-yards receiving. Overall, UH was held to 32 yards rushing and no touchdowns.

Brian Bonner and Jason Phillips tallied 10 tackles apiece to lead the TCU defense. Phillips also added two tackles for a loss and a sack.

Chase Turner set three Texas Bowl punting records including the longest punt in bowl history (65 yards), highest gross punting average (50.2) and most punts (6).

BOWL HISTORY2008 BELL HELICOPTER ARMED FORCES BOWL

HOUSTON 34, AIR FORCE 28Dec. 31, 2008 • Amon G. Carter Stadium • Fort Worth, Texas

Freshman running back Bryce Beall rushed for 135 yards and a touchdown and added 92 receiving yards to help lead the University of Houston football team to a 34-28 win over Air Force during the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl at Amon G. Carter Stadium.

Beall, who accounted for 229 yards of all-purpose yards, finished the season with 1,247 rushing yards, becoming the first freshman in school history to reach that milestone.

With the win, the Cougars finished the season with an 8-5 record and won their first bowl game since a 35-0 deci-sion over Navy during the 1980 Garden State Bowl in East Rutherford, N.J., on Dec. 22, 1980. The win snapped an eight-game losing skid in bowl games.

Sophomore quarterback Case Keenum threw for 252 yards and a touchdown on 22-of-33 passing but saw his school-record streak of consecutive 300-yard passing games snapped at 13 straight games dating back to last season.

The game started on a positive note for the Cougars when Roisean Haynes forced a fumble on the open-ing kickoff and junior Brandon Brinkley jumped on the loose ball to set up the offense on the Air Force 25.

Four plays later, Beall plunged into the end zone from one yard out to hand the Cougars an early 7-0 lead.

Air Force wasted little time in knotting the game at 7-7. Taking over on their 23-yard line, the Falcons marched 77 yards in little less than two minutes with six straight rushing plays and tied the game on Jared Tew’s 2-yard touchdown run.

On the ensuing kickoff, the Cou-gars embarked on an eight-play, 65-yard drive that was capped by Keenum’s 1-yard sneak into the end zone.

Later in the period, freshman linebacker Marcus McGraw stripped Asher Clark of the ball at the Air Force 24 and senior defensive end Phillip Hunt pounced on the loose ball and returned it to the Air Force 14. However, the Falcon defense stiffened and freshman kicker Jordan Mannisto’s nailed a 22-yard field goal with four seconds remaining in the period.

On its ensuing possession, Air Force marched 76 yards in 12 plays and pulled to within a field goal at 17-14 on Tim Jefferson’s 5-yard touchdown run at the 9:52 mark of the second quarter.

After a Cougar punt, a missed 28-yard field goal by Air Force and another UH punt, Air Force tied the game at 17-17 when Ryan Harrison booted a 44-yard field with 2:28 left in the first half.

Air Force looked ready to grab its first lead of the game when a Cougar fumble on the ensuing kickoff put the Falcons at the UH 29-yard line with 2:21 remaining. But the UH defense stiffened and pushed AFA back nine yards then Harrison missed from 55 yards out.

The two teams traded scoring possessions in the third quarter. UH took the opening kickoff and marched 69 yards on a seven-play drive that was capped on Keenum’s 4-yard touchdown run with 12:28 remaining in the period for a 24-17 lead.

Air Force took over on the next possession on an 18-play drive that consumed 51 yards and took more than eight-and-a-half minutes off the clock. However the Cougar defense limited the Falcons to Harrison’s 37-yard field goal with 3:46 left in the period to maintain a 24-20 advantage.

Houston looked to take control of the game, extending their lead, 31-20 on 20-yard field goal attempt by Mannisto and a punt by the Falcons on their next possession.

Five plays later, Keenum’s pass to senior tight end Mark Hafner was intercepted and returned 19 yards by Aaron Kirchoff. The Falcons would pull within three after the interception on a 3-yard rushing touchdown by Tim Jefferson.

The Cougars capped the game with a 37-yard field goal from Mannisto with 3:24 left on the clock.

2009 BELL HELICOPTER ARMED FORCES BOWLAIR FORCE 47, HOUSTON 20

Dec. 31, 2009 • Amon G. Carter Stadium • Fort Worth, TexasAsher Clark and Jared Tew each ran for more than 100 yards with two touchdowns and Air

Force’s top-ranked pass defense had six interceptions against Case Keenum, leading the Falcons to a 47-20 victory over Houston in the Armed Forces Bowl.

Air Force’s plan to limit Keenum and the nation’s most explosive offense worked almost flawlessly. The Falcons ran for 402 yards to go with Tim Jefferson’s effective passing (10 of 14 for 161 yards), holding the ball for 41 minutes and then coming up with the big defensive plays.

Anthony Wright had three interceptions, and Chris Thomas had two picks to go with his 12 tackles.

Keenum, who leads the nation in yards passing, was 24 of 41 with a season-low 222 yards and a touchdown for the Cougars (10-4). The six picks were a career high. In his other 13 games this season, he had only nine interceptions while throwing for 5,449 yards and 43 touchdowns.

After Air Force went ahead on Clark’s 36-yard TD to cap the opening drive of the game, Keenum’s first pass attempt deflected off his falling receiver and was intercepted by Wright. That set up Tew’s 6-yard TD run for a 14-0 lead.

Tew finished with 26 carries for 173 yards, He had a 71-yard TD with 3:32 left in the game after Keenum tossed his fifth interception.

Clark had 17 carries for 129 yards for the Falcons, who had lost in the Armed Forces Bowl the past two seasons, including 34-28 to Houston a year ago. Air Force had lost three postseason games since winning in the 2000 Silicon Valley Bowl.

Houston’s bowl win last year capped coach Kevin Sumlin’s debut season and snapped an eight-game postseason losing streak that had spanned 28 years.

After Houston was held without a touchdown before halftime, Tyron Carrier returned the opening kickoff of the second half 79 yards for his fourth TD this season. He took the ball near the left sideline, then ran to the middle of the field before shooting through a gap and running untouched to get the Cougars within 24-13.

Air Force immediately responded with its first kickoff return for a touchdown since 1985. Jonathan Warzeka fielded the ball and stepped back into the end zone before running 100 yards. Five Houston players got their hands on him, but couldn’t get him down.

According to STATS LLC, which has such data only since 1996, it was only the sixth game in that span involving FBS teams when there were kickoff returns for touchdowns on consecutive plays. None of them had been in a bowl game.

After the kickoff returns, Keenum threw a 10-yard TD to Patrick Edwards to make it 31-20, but that was all the Cougars got.

That gave Keenum a TD pass in 30 consecutive games , but this was the first time in that streak that he had more picks than scores.

The Cougars entered the Fort Worth Bowl leading the nation in total yards (581) while averaging 44 points. They managed only 331 total yards against the Falcons.

Air Force had allowed only 149 yards passing a game this season, even after giving up 377 in its regular-season finale at BYU.

Clark’s 22-yard TD midway through the second quarter, when he took a pitch to the right and ran untouched to the end zone, made it 21-3. The only pass on that 11-play drive was a 13-yard completion by Jefferson, who by then was 5 of 5 for 71 yards, 10 more than Keenum.

When Jefferson slipped down trying to run on third-and-goal from the 2 with 17 seconds and no timeouts left just before halftime, he quickly got the offense off the field and the kicking team got out in time for Erik Soderberg’s 27-yard field goal that made it 24-6.

BOWL HISTORY2012 TICKET CITY BOWL

#20/17 HOUSTON 30, #24/23 PENN STATE 14Jan. 1, 2012 • Cotton Bowl • Dallas, Texas

Case Keenum finished his record-setting career with another performance for the history books.The sixth-year senior threw for 532 yards and three touchdowns, leading No. 20 Houston to 30-14

victory against No. 24 Penn State in the TicketCity Bowl.

The Cougars (13-1) finished with a school record for victories and made Tony Levine a winner in his debut as Houston coach. Levine took over when Kevin Sumlin left to take the Texas A&M job after the regular season.

Keenum came into the game as the NCAA’s career leader in yards passing and touchdowns passes, then set a bowl record with 227 yards passing in the first quarter.

“I’m biased, obviously. I’d put him right at the top,” Levine said when asked where Keenum ranks among the best college quarterbacks of all time. “You don’t win 13 games by accident and I don’t think you don’t break the records he broke by accident, either.”

Keenum wasn’t concerned with his place. He leaves Houston as the school career leader with 37 wins, and that’s what he chose to focus on.

“As far as rankings and all that goes, I’m concerned with our team ranking and how we end up,” Keenum said. “Thirteen and one, I hope we end up in the top 15 in the country.”

“I thought the guys came out and they played hard. It’s been a difficult year for them,” Penn State interim coach Tom Bradley said. “It just didn’t go our way.”

The Nittany Lions (9-4) were picked apart by Keenum. Penn State was allowing 162 yards passing per game, but Keenum threw for more than double that by halftime.

The Cougars raced out to a 17-0 lead in the first quarter behind Keenum’s record-setting period. According to TicketCity officials, Louisville’s Browning Nagle had the old mark with 223 yards against Alabama in the first quarter of the 1991 Fiesta Bowl.

Keenum worked the spread offense to perfection, with five different Cougars catching at least five balls. Patrick Edwards, one of the country’s leading receivers, had 228 yards and two scores in the last game of his collegiate career. Justin Johnson had 12 catches for 148 yards.

Keenum is the ninth player in bowl history to pass for at least 500 yards. He thought he could have done better.

“We left a lot out there,” Keenum said. “There were a lot of throws I missed.”Houston came into the game determined to end the season on a high note having its BCS Bowl hopes

dashed on Dec. 3. The undefeated Cougars fell to Southern Miss in the Conference USA championship game, costing UH a shot at the school’s first BCS bid.

“That was the fluke,” Levine said of the lone loss, “and not the 12 wins leading up to it.”Penn State quarterback Rob Bolden finished 7 of 26 passing for 137 yards, with three interceptions.

Houston wanted Bolden, the backup quarterback all season, to air it out as much as possible.“We know they were going to try to run the ball,” Cougars linebacker Marcus McGraw said. “We just

wanted to get them in second and long, third and long, and wanted them to pass the ball knowing they had a second-string quarterback.”
