Raise your hand if you saw that coming...
SMU completely outplayed Houston and deserved to win that game. The Mustangs shredded Houston’s run defense and torched its secondary in the first half.
The Cougars played sloppy and then suffered injuries to the offensive line that they couldn’t afford.
Thus ended Houston’s hope of a New Year’s Six bowl. Barring a miracle, thus ends Houston’s hope of an appearance in the AAC Championship game.
The season is officially tarnished.
SMU just gashed Houston on the ground. The stats will be below.
SMU’s receivers were also wide open on several plays in the first half.
