Well the Coogs football team has safely arrived in North Carolina. But because of the bad weather in Houston, the Spirit of Houston band got stuck at the airport and won't arrive until about 2:00am...
Kick-off is tomorrow at 11:00am CST...and now, my prediction for tomorrow's game...
Houston will jump out to a 10-0 lead with quick hit inside and crisp passing from Keenum. ECU responds with a touchdown at the end of the 1st quarter-
10-7 Houston
The Coogs once again march down the field and score a touchdown. Both defenses stiffen on key 3rd downs and the halftime score is-
17-7 Houston.
ECU comes out fired up in the 3rd with big slashing runs and scores from inside the 5. Once again Houston responds, marching 75+ yards and scores on a pass play. ECU continues to pound away at the smaller Houston defense, scoring another rushing TD to end the 3rd quarter-
24-21 Houston
ECU's defense stops the Coogs and forces a punt. ECU's running game is clicking, but a fumble inside the Houston 20 turns the ball over. Keenum directs a TD drive that finished with him scrambling into the endzone. ECU once again takes the ball and marches downfield, only to get intercepted in Cougar territory. Now the Coogs begin to pound the ball with Sims and Beall, finishing the drive with a Hogan 35-yard FG. ECU desperately moves the ball downfield with passes, scoring a TD with less than a minute to play. The onside kick fails, and Keenum takes a knee to finish the game.
34-28 Houston
GO COOGS!!
