But remember, they won here for the first time in that long last year, so maybe the curse is broken...

JJ's teams normally struggle more early in the season because it takes awhile for the offense to get going. That is why I always liked how UH tended to backload their schedule, as the team would normally be on a roll at the end of a season.

Since that was the case in most years with numerous returnees each year, I can't imagine the offense clicking on all cylinders with nobody on the team having experience with JJ's offense. The defense will probably take a little while to get going under the new defensive coordinator, but the offense would take even longer I believe.

Incorrect. Rice has won at SMU 5 times in that same time period, most recently in 2003. So they won here for the first time in.... 4 years. Since we go back and forth every 2 years, that hardly seems significant.
