This content was created by a team that works independently from the FOX newsroom.The Houston Cougars come into the game with a 3-1 record and as the 14th-ranked team in the country.Their lone loss this year was against Texas Tech in a very close road game.
They lost the game 28-26, clearly putting up a strong fight.It hasn’t been completely smooth sailing for the team, though.
They’ve won the past four weeks, beating Georgia Southern by 14 points, then UCF by 10 the following week.Houston's Conner Weigman monster second half in which he had three rushing touchdowns helped the Cougars pull of a come-from-behind win.(Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images)In the past two weeks, the team has taken down Kansas State and Oklahoma State.
Against Kansas State, they won by 19 points on the road.Against the Cowboys, they won by just three.
In fairness to Houston, they entered the fourth quarter with an 11-point lead over Oklahoma State.The Cowboys put up 14 points in the quarter, but a Houston touchdown gave them a lead Oklahoma State could never get passed.THE SEC MIGHT HAVE MORE HEADLINERS, BUT THE BIG 12 HAS THE MOST UNDERRATED MATCHUP OF WEEK 4The Utah Utes, the worst-named team in football, are 6-0 and the 10th-ranked team in the country.
This will be the toughest game they’ve played to date, and it might be one they were already focused.Last week they took on Colorado on the road, but won 27-24.
I think Utah might’ve already been thinking about this game, because the Buffaloes aren’t even close to being as good as the Utes.Sometimes teams just have bad games, but that’s okay.Utah Utes head coach Kyle Whittingham looks on from the sidelines during the first half against the Baylor Bears at McLane Stadium in Waco, Texas, on Nov.
