Cougar High avoids "trap"

Maybe this was a "trap game".

The #17 Houston Cougars were a slight favorite (-1) in their home game against Texas Tech on Saturday night. Still flying high from their upset of #5 Oklahoma State on the road in Stillwater, the Cougars were definitely vulnerable heading into a "trap game" with the dangerous Red Raiders coming to town, ready to right the ship after last week's loss in Austin. It took a Case Keenum touchdown in the final minute to beat Texas Tech 29-28, and move to 3-0 on the season. With back to back road losses to ranked opponents, Tech falls to 2-2 for the first time since 2002.

Congrats to (Former A&M Offense Coordinator) Kevin Sumlin. It's hard to outcoach a genuis, but apparently it can be done.

Coug's offense impressed me - it's a shame that Tech let this one get away, but it's certainly not the end of the season.

Actually, Holgerson played under Leach and coached under him at Tech for 8 years as well. Kingsbury is also on staff.
