I wonder how they will hold up against David Piland and co.

Depends on how well the front 7 plays, if they're in the freshman's face all day then the secondary will be fine, if he has time to throw then those Houston track stars will get behind our secondary and burn them for several long gains/TDs. I'd love to see our d-linemen and others who rush the passer get their hands up into the passer's throwing lanes more.

I don't think our CBs will be able to stay with UHs receivers-the question could be does their QB have enough time to hit them enough times to matter. Houston did have 28 First Downs

If they get their hand up it could present problems for them because Piland has a low release point.

We'll probably have to outscore them and get lucky. They are going to score at least 28 pts

No getting lucky about it. We will either make the plays to win, or we won't. Houston has lost a lot more talent to injury then we have. It's Homecoming, it's at home, we have the talent to win this game. I expect to beat Houston on Saturday. If we don't I'll be awfully disappointed.
