COACHING STAFF

ACCREDITATION GUIDELINES

• Only full-time, salaried employees intending to provide actual game coverage may receive credentials. • A requesting media agency must represent a collective, organizational editorial voice, not simply the offerings of a single individual. • Membership in a writers’association does not automatically qualify an agency for credentials. • A media agency may assign one of its credentials to its online entity. • An online entity, not associated with a traditional media agency, may qualify for one credential, subject to the following conditions: 1. An online entity may receive a credential only if its own full-time staff writes a majority of that site’s material. 2. Online entities that focus primarily on University of Houston Athletics and sponsor message boards or chat rooms, may receive credentials provided they adhere to a policy that requires that a posted message or opinion is identified with the actual name and city of the individual posting the message. 3. Any online service that is recognized as an outlet intended primarily for the purpose of delivering news related to the recruitment of student-athletes will not qualify for credentials. 4. Online entities (other than those identified above) registering 20,000 legitimate unique users per month in each of the past 12 months will be given first consideration.

2015 SEASON

All requests for working press, radio, television, photography or scouting credentials should be made online at www.uhcougars.com/credentials AT LEAST ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THE GAME. Season credential requests should be requested by August 14. Seating in the press box is for working media and scouts only. All space for the working press, radio and television is allocated by the Houston Athletics Communications Office, which reserves the right to deny credentials to any outlet. Spouses, dates, children, equipment carriers and non-workers are restricted from the press box, sidelines and locker rooms. Any abuse of a working credential will result in the media agency losing credential privileges. Freelance and/or non-daily writers may be asked to produce copies of actual publications in which their work has appeared. Admission to the press box is by pass only.

2015 SEASON

HOUSTON IN 2015 ABOUT THE 2015 COUGARS

2014 AMERICAN STANDINGS

« Twenty-eight full or part-time starters return in 2015 for Houston. The 2014 leaders in rushing, passing, field goals, punting, tackles for loss, sacks and interceptions all return. « The program welcomed an incoming class of 21 that is comprised of 18 high school student-athletes, one junior college transfer and two four-year transfers. Three of the 21 newcomers enrolled in the program in January for spring workouts - WR Chance Allen, QB Adam Schulz and WR Devin Smith. « Houston’s roster sports 49 upperclassmen and 56 underclassmen. Eighteen players redshirted their first season on campus in 2014. « Houston’s all-time record sits at 406-351-15 since the program started in 1946.

THE TOM HERMAN ERA

« Tom Herman was officially introduced as Houston’s head coach on Dec. 19, 2014. « The 2014 Frank Broyles Award winner as the nation’s top assistant coach, comes to Houston after three seasons as offensive coordinator at Ohio State. Dubbed the “quarterback whisperer”, Herman willed a third-team quarterback Cardale Jones to wins in the Big Ten Championship, College Football Playoff Semifinal and the first College Football Playoff Championship. « Herman’s 2014 Ohio State offense finished the season ranked fifth in scoring offense at 44.8 points per game and ninth in total offense at 511.6 yards per game despite losing Heisman Trophy candidate Braxton Miller prior to the season. With freshman J.T. Barrett taking over the reins just prior to the season, Herman simply molded the quarterback into a formidable leader who finished fifth in Heisman voting and was named a FWAA AllAmerican. « Herman’s double-duty between Houston and Ohio State ended on Jan. 13 when he and Assistant Athletics Director for Football Operations Fernando Lovo made the drive down I-45 from Dallas one day after the CFP Championship. « The Cal Lutheran grad has plenty of experience in the state of Texas, however, getting his coaching start at Texas Lutheran in 1998, spending 11 seasons in the Lone Star State before three years as offensive coordinator at Iowa State and his hiring at Ohio State. « Herman’s quarterbacks in 2014 ranked second nationally with a team passing efficiency rating of 167.72 while Barrett was second nationally with a rating of 169.8 and sixth nationally with an Ohio State record 34 passing touchdowns while also adding 11 touchdowns on the ground for a Big Ten record of 45 touchdowns responsible for. The Buckeyes’ offense was sixth nationally with an average of 6.98 yards per play and second nationally with 46 plays of 30 yards or longer and 17 plays of 50 yards or longer. « At 40 years young, Herman enters the season as the eighth-youngest coach on the FBS level.

2015 PRESEASON HONORS

« Houston has been well-represented on 2015 preseason national watch lists. As of July 9, three Cougars have been named on prestigious national award lists as Kyle Bullard (Groza Award), Kenneth Farrow (Maxwell Award) and William Jackson III (Bednarik Award) were recognized among the nation’s elite. « Houston had two players named to Phil Steele’s Preseason Third Team All-America team in Jackson and long snapper Nolan Frese. « Dave Campbell’s Texas Football Magazine tabbed senior Adrian McDonald as Texas’ Best Defensive Back. The veteran Texas prognosticator named two Cougars in McDonald and linebacker Steven Taylor to his All-Texas Preseason First Team, while Trevon Stewart was tabbed Second Team. « Houston was represented with three Preseason All-American Athletic Conference First Team selections (Farrow, Jackson, McDonald) by Phil Steele with Stewart named to Second Team. « Athlon Sports’ tabbed three (Farrow, Jackson, McDonald) to its Preseason First Team, while Stewart and receiver Demarcus Ayers were named to the Second Team.

« Houston’s backfield features a thunder-and-lightning combo in seniors Kenneth Farrow and Ryan Jackson. « The duo helped Houston to its most rushing yards since 2007 when the Cougars rushed for 2,911 yards last season. The two combined for nine 100-yard games in 2014, four more than any other team in The American. The two helped Houston to 399 yards on the ground vs. UNLV, as UH fell just one yard short of its first 400-yard rushing game since 1985. « With his 1,037 rushing yards in 2014, Farrow became the 24th player in Houston history to rush over 1,000 yards in a season and the first since Bryce Beall in 2008 with 1,247 yards. He also became the 14th 2,000-yard career rusher in Houston history and enters 2015 with 2,017 career rushing yards, ranking 14th on the career rushing yards chart. « Farrow led The American with seven 100-yard rushing games last season with 130 vs. Grambling,113 vs. UNLV, 112 at USF, 116 vs. Tulsa, 110 vs. SMU, 143 at Cincinnati and 103 vs. Pitt. Houston was 6-1 in Farrow’s century-mark games. « He ended the year with four consecutive 100-yard games and enters 2015 ranked fifth nationally with his current streak. « He ranks 13th with seven career 100-yard rushing games, nine away from the career record set by Robert Newhouse (1969-71). Houston is 6-1 in the games Farrow eclipses the century mark. « Farrow led The American with 14 rushing touchdowns including nine in the final four games. The 14 TDs ranked second on the UH single-season charts, just one away from the season record of 15 set by Jackie Battle in 2006. « Farrow tied The American’s single-game rushing touchdown record and placed his name along three others (Bryce Beall, Anthony Aldridge, Joffrey Reynolds) in a tie for second in Houston single-game history with four rushing TDs vs. Tulsa. The total was one short of the single-game record set by Antowain Smith vs. Southern Miss on Nov. 9, 1996. « Farrow ranks ninth on the Houston career rushing touchdowns chart with 22 career scores with the record of 39 set by Bryce Beall from 2008-11. « He was just four yards short of capturing The American’s 2014 rushing crown, trailing Marlon Mack of USF’s 1,041 yards. « Jackson was seventh in The American last season with two 100-yard games, including a career-high 147 rushing yards vs. UNLV. Jackson owns five career 100-yard games with Houston undefeated when he eclipses the century mark on the ground. « The two eclipsed the century mark in the same game for a second time in 2014 vs. Tulsa as Farrow rushed for 116 yards vs. the Golden Hurricane while Jackson ended the day with 103 rushing yards. UH enters 2015 with 51 games with two 100-yard rushers. The two also accomplished the feat vs. UNLV with Jackson rushing for 147 yards and Farrow 113 yards. « The rushing attack will be of importance in 2015 as Houston averaged 246 rushing yards per game in its eight wins, but averaged just 86 yards per game in its five defeats. « Quarterback Greg Ward Jr. also averaged 44.1 rushing yards per game, gaining 573 yards on the ground on 118 attempts, with Javin Webb averaging 44.3 yards per game in the three games he appeared in 2014.

THE WORD ON WARD

« Named Houston’s starting quarterback vs. Memphis last year, Greg Ward Jr. returned to a position he saw action at in 10 games as a true freshman in 2013. After seeing action at receiver and punt returner in the final four games of 2013, Ward moved to the position in spring of 2014 before returning back under center in the fifth game of 2014. « Ward ranked ninth nationally in completion percentage last season, completing 67.3 percent of his passes, or 177-of-263 attempts. « He became the 22nd passer in Houston history to throw for at least 2,000 yards in a season, finishing the year with 2,010 yards passing with 573 yards on the ground. « He first returned to the QB position on Oct. 2 vs. UCF, finishing with 116 yards on 10-of-17 passing. « In his first career start at Memphis on Oct. 11, Ward rushed for a game-best 95 yards including a 64-yard TD scamper. He finished with 188 yards on 17-of-28 passing including his second career passing TD. « Ward moved to 2-0 when he led Houston to a win over Temple, finishing with an 88 percent completion rate and 268 yards with two touchdowns on 29-of-33 passing. Temple entered the game sixth nationally and first in The American with a pass efficiency defense of 97.1. Ward ended the night with an efficiency rating of 176.1. « Ward threw for 336 yards on 30-of-45 passing in Houston’s loss to Tulane, his first career 300-yard passing game. He added a second 300-yard game at Cincinnati a career-high 360 yards and two touchdowns on 27-of-45 passing. « The first five games of the season saw Ward spend time as one of Houston’s starting receivers and punt returner before making the switch to the backfield vs. UCF. He had 15 receptions for 139 yards and one touchdown while returning nine punts for 63 yards in the season’s first five games. « While considered a dual-threat quarterback, Ward has a viable arm as well, leading Texas Class 4A with 4,202 passing yards and 39 passing TDs against five interceptions as a senior in 2012. Ward also added 861 rushing yards and 13 TDs on the ground. He was named the No. 3 QB in the State of Texas by Dave Campbell. « Houston added two transfer quarterbacks as part of its 2015 signing class, senior Adam Schulz (Utah) and sophomore Kyle Postma (Trinity Valley Community College). The two, and Ward, are joined by redshirt-freshman Bear Fenimore as Houston’s scholarship quarterbacks.

STEPPING UP ON THE RECEIVING END

« With the loss of five receivers combining for 77 career starts graduating from the program, Tom Herman will look at a number of options at the receiver spot in his first season at Houston. Junior Demarcus Ayers (11 career starts) and sophomore Steven Dunbar (two career starts) own the group’s lone UH starts. « The 2013 American Athletic Conference Co-Special Teams Player of the Year, Ayers was second on the team last season with 33 receptions for 335 yards and two touchdowns including a pivotal fourth quarter score in Houston’s comeback win over Pitt in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl. Ayers had a break out game at Cincinnati with a career-best 10 receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown at Cincinnati. « Dunbar broke out vs. Tulsa with a career-best seven receptions for 150 yards, also a career best. All seven receptions resulted in Houston first downs, as 15 of his 20 receptions on the year resulted in a first down. He came close to doubling his season totals entering the Tulsa game, as prior to Nov. 22 he had nine receptions for 102 yards. « The group was bolstered in June when Oregon transfer Chance Allen was ruled eligible immediately, entering 2015 classified as a junior with two seasons to play. While at Oregon, Allen pulled in five receptions for 98 yards and one touchdown with action in nine games in 2013 and five games in Oregon’s march to the National Championship game in 2014. « Redshirt-freshmen Isaiah Johnson and Latrell Martin join the mix in 2015 along with true freshman Devin Smith. Sophomores Donald Gage and John Leday look to return to form after missing 2014 with injuries while classmate Linell Bonner was placed on scholarship after a strong spring session. « The tight end, a position not seen lately on the Houston roster, returns in 2015, led by junior Tyler McCloskey who pulled in two receptions for 16 yards as a fullback in 2014.

THE LINE ON THE LINE

« Houston lost two of its most experienced players along the line with the graduation of RG Rowdy Harper (52 career starts) and C Bryce Redman (34 career starts), both seniors. Following the season, 2014 LT Travis Cross was forced to end his playing career due to concussions. « RT Alex Cooper and LG Ben Dew return for Houston after starting all 13 games at their respective positions and the Cougars welcome back senior LT Zach Johnson who missed the 2014 season with a torn ACL after starting 11 games at RT in 2013. « Sophomore RG Josh Thomas and redshirt-freshman C Colton Freeman will look to make a mark on the line in 2015 along with sophomore Marcus Oliver, seniors Carter Wall and Damian Parris and junior Kyle Marrs.

« Over the last two seasons, no program has taken the ball away from opposing offenses more than Houston with 73 turnovers forced over 2013-14. « The 2013 Houston defense led the nation with 43 forced turnovers - 18 fumbles (NCAA best) and 25 interceptions (second nationally). The 2014 edition ranked 11th nationally with 30 turnovers and eighth nationally with 19 interceptions. « Combined with the hiring of Todd Orlando as Tom Herman’s first defensive coordinator, the program’s outlook for forcing turnovers is promising. Orlando’s Utah State defense ranked eighth nationally with 59 turnovers forced over the last two seasons and tied Houston in 2014 with 30 turnovers forced and 19 interceptions. « UH has forced multiple turnovers in 28 of its last 34 games. and had a 34-game turnover forced streak end at the season finale at Cincinnati. At the time, it was the longest active streak in the NCAA. « A nation’s best nine players had interceptions for Houston last season with eight accounting for 11 fumble recoveries. « Adrian McDonald led Houston with eight turnovers - three fumble recoveries and five interceptions. Heading into the UCF game, McDonald had gained a turnover in seven straight games dating back to 2013. « Three players had at least three interceptions for Houston as Trevon Stewart and Howard Wilson each had three picks along with McDonald’s five. « Houston converted its 30 turnovers into 17 scores, 56.7 percent, leading to 93 points on the year. « Houston had three defensive touchdowns last season - two fumble recoveries in the end zone (Vincent Hall vs. Grambling and Adrian McDonald vs. Tulane) with one interception returned 29 yards for a TD vs. Tulane. « If you haven’t picked up on it yet, Stewart and McDonald are turnover machines. Stewart led the nation in 2013 with a combined 10 turnovers - interceptions (4) and fumble recoveries (6) while McDonald led The American in 2014 with eight turnovers - five interceptions and three fumble recoveries. « Entering its game vs. Houston, Memphis had just five turnovers in five games before the Cougars forced five turnovers alone (three interceptions, two fumbles). At one point in the second quarter, UH ended three straight Memphis drives with turnovers. « Temple entered its game vs. Houston having turned the ball over just nine times through five games before the Houston defense forced four turnovers while UH did not have a single turnover offensively.

DEFENSE NOTES ANYTHING BUT SECONDARY

DEFENSIVE TOUCHES

« The secondary group made a name for itself in the takeaway department in 2013, recording 29 of the team’s 43 turnovers or 67 percent. And it returns 97 career starts with every starter from 2014 returning. « The group had 19 of the 30 turnovers in 2014 with interceptions from Adrian McDonald (5), Trevon Stewart (3), Howard Wilson (3), William Jackson III (2), Lee Hightower and Earl Foster while McDonald (3) and Jackson (1) had fumble recoveries. « Jackson, who was named a preseason All-American by Phil Steele, owns one starting corner role. In 2014, the rangy corner was second in The American with 10 pass breakups, while intercepting two passes, playing in man coverage. « At free safety, Stewart has started 33 career games, earning FWAA Freshman All-America honors in 2012. The Patterson, La., native led the nation in 2013 with 10 turnovers (six fumble recoveries and four interceptions) and is third among all active players with 291 career tackles. « A high school quarterback, McDonald led The American in 2014 with eight turnovers (five interceptions and three fumble recoveries) at his strong safety position. « McDonald needs just three more interceptions and 60 interception return yards to set the Houston career records in both categories. « Senior Lee Hightower joined the group in 2014 and started the first six games opposite of Jackson before suffering a season-ending leg injury vs. Memphis, the same game, in which the junior recorded his first interception at Houston. « With Hightower lost for the season, Houston turned to other corners to make their mark including junior Brandon Wilson and sophomore Howard Wilson. « Brandon Wilson made his first career start at BYU while Howard Wilson saw significant time at nickel back with interceptions vs. UNLV, Temple and Tulsa, receiving his first career start against the latter. « Sophomore Khalil Williams also made his debut vs. the Owls, coming in at a safety position in the nickel package.

LOOK AT THE LINEBACKERS

« With the loss of Derrick Mathews (45 career starts) and Efrem Oliphant (29 career starts), junior Steven Taylor (19 career starts) leads the group into a new frontier with a change to the 3-4 defense. « Taylor owns seven career game with double-digit stops and is the team’s returning leading tackler from 2014 with 76 stops on the year. He also led Houston on the year with nine tackles for loss and four sacks. « Sophomore Matthew Adams moved into the starting lineup after a season-ending injury to Mathews midway thru the year last season and ended the year with three starts, totaling 40 tackles, including 4.5 for a loss. « Junior Tyus Bowser makes the move from defensive end, where he earned three starts in his first two years, to outside linebacker while senior Luke Stice moves to inside linebacker after earning two career starts at fullback. « Senior Elandon Roberts had 26 tackles in 2014 and will look to partner with Adams at the inside linebacker positions.

HISTORY & RECORDS

UP FRONT

« Moving to a three-man front in 2015, the Houston defensive line returns three players with starting experience - senior Tomme Mark (15 career starts), junior B.J. Singleton (11 career starts) and junior Cameron Malveaux (one career start). « The one career start may be misleading for Malveaux as the Beaumont, Texas, native enjoyed a breakout spring under the new coaching staff, earning the program’s spring MVP honors. The 6-6, 270 lb., defensive end had 15 tackles in 2014, but is expecting to greatly increase that number in 2015 with an increased on-field presence. « Mark and Singleton were a part of a four-man defensive tackle rotation in 2014 and will play along the line in 2015. « The group was bolstered with the emergence of sophomore Nick Thurman. After seeing action in five games as a redshirt-freshman, the Dallas native provided a jump in the spring of 2015 at defensive tackle. « Senior defensive tackle Melvin Holland earned a scholarship with his play in the spring and was highly lauded for his work, as was redshirt-freshman Zach Vaughan.

A NEW ERA IN HOUSTON FOOTBALL

THE OFFENSE

A new era in Houston Football begins as Tom Herman takes over as the 13th head coach in Houston history.

The Houston offense has seen more attrition than its counterparts across the line of scrimmage but returns a number of key players and promising fresh faces in Applewhite’s first year as offensive coordinator at Houston.

The 2014 Frank Broyles Award winner as the nation’s top assistant coach, Herman arrives in Houston after three seasons as offensive coordinator at Ohio State University where he helped lead the Buckeyes to the 2014 College Football Playoff Championship.

HISTORY & RECORDS

SEASON REVIEW

The Cal Lutheran grad has plenty of experience in the state of Texas, however, making his coaching start at Texas Lutheran in 1998. He spent 11 seasons in the Lone Star State before three years as offensive coordinator at Iowa State and his hiring at Ohio State. Herman’s first offseason at Houston with new Director for Football Sports Performance Yancy McKnight was focused on toughness and competition with every player striving to end the day 1-0. With Herman’s hire came an entirely new coaching staff at UH. On the offensive side of the ball, Major Applewhite (offensive coordinator/quarterbacks), Kenith Pope (running backs), Drew Mehringer (wide receivers), Corby Meekins (tight ends/ fullbacks) and Derek Warehime (offensive line) joined the UH family, while the defensive side saw Todd Orlando (defensive Coordinator/linebackers), Oscar Giles (defensive line), Craig Naivar (safeties) and Jason Washington (cornerbacks) don the red and white. In 2015, Houston returns 35 letterwinners with a combined 299 career starts. In all, 27 players with starting experience return from the 2014 roster which lost 21 players with a combined 370 games started. Houston welcomes American Athletic Conference foes SMU (1-11 record in 2013), Cincinnati (9-4), Memphis (10-3) and Navy (8-5) into TDECU Stadium along with non-conference foes Tennessee Tech (5-7), Texas State (7-5) and Vanderbilt (3-9). The Cougars travel to face American rivals Tulsa (2-10), Tulane (3-9), UCF (9-4) and UConn (2-10) along with a non-conference road test at Louisville (9-4) in the second week of the season.

2015 MEDIA GUIDE

Two scholarship quarterbacks from 2014 return this season, led by Greg Ward Jr., who started Houston’s final eight games of the season. The rushing attack will feature familiar faces as the top four rushers from 2014 return for the Cougars. 2015 will see new faces in the receiver slots as just 37.7 percent of Houston’s 2014 receiving yards return, plus the addition of the tight end position will give UH fans a new group to focus on. Along the line, Houston returns four players with starting experience as it looks to replace three 2014 starters who combined for 98 career starts.

QUARTERBACKS

A backup quarterback and part time receiver in 2013, Ward moved to receiver full time in the spring of 2014 and remained there for the first five games of the season, pulling in 15 receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown, before moving back under center in the second half vs. UCF and remaining there for the rest of 2014. Ward finished the year with 2,010 passing yards and 12 touchdowns while completing 67 percent of his passes (177-of-263). The Tyler, Texas, native also proved to be a threat on the ground, rushing for 573 yards and six touchdowns on 118 attempts for an average of 4.9 yards per carry. The junior is one of two returning scholarship quarterbacks for Houston but the only QB on the roster with experience wearing a UH jersey. Junior Hunter McCoy and redshirt-freshmen Bear Fenimore and Mason McClendon join Ward as returning signal callers. Adam Schulz joins the Houston program after three seasons at Utah including three starts in 2013, while sophomore Kyle Postma joined the team over the summer after throwing 3,328 yards and 38 touchdowns in one season at Trinity Valley Community College.

HOUSTONFOOTBALL 2015 OUTLOOK 2015 SEASON

RUNNING BACKS

The American’s leading scorer and second-best back in the league by rushing yards, Farrow ended 2014 with four straight games of over 100 yards. The Hurst, Texas, native became the 24th player in UH history with over 1,000 yards in a season with 1,037 yards along with 14 TDs. Farrow is also the 14th player in Houston history with over 2,000 career rushing yards, sitting at 2,017 yards. Another 1,000-yard year from Farrow will place him in the top four in UH history.

Depth behind the two is provided by sophomore Javin Webb, who rushed for 133 yards and one touchdown on 19 carries in 2014, senior walk-on Justin Hicks and redshirt-freshman Kaliq Kokuma. The position welcomes freshmen Tyreik Gray and Kevrin Justice after highlyacclaimed high school careers.

OFFENSIVE LINE

The Houston offensive line group returns two starters in 2014 but lost a third when LT Travis Cross’ career ended following the season due to concussions. Forty percent of the line does return in LG Ben Dew and RT Alex Cooper, who each started all 13 games at their respective positions in 2014. The line is bolstered by the return of senior Zach Johnson who started 11 games in 2013 and was in line to start at LT in 2014 before suffering a torn ACL in the spring of 2014. He’ll man the left side of the line in 2015. Sophomore Marcus Oliver, who saw action in all 13 games as a true freshman in 2014, will also challenge at the position. At center, redshirt-freshman Colton Freeman took the lead role after an impressive spring with senior Carter Wall and junior Mac Long also competing to replace Bryce Redman, who started the last 34 games at the position.

Junior Demarcus Ayers leads all returners with 33 receptions for 335 yards and two touchdowns in 2014 and will look to lead the group in 2015. Sophomore Steven Dunbar came on strong late last season with 20 receptions for 149 yards and one touchdown. The Louisiana native was clutch in 2014 with 75 percent of his receptions resulting in first downs.

Also making a name for himself in the spring was sophomore Josh Thomas at right guard after seeing action in 12 games as a true freshman, mostly at tackle. He’s backed by Oklahoma transfer Kyle Marrs, who sat out the NCAA mandated transfer year last season.

Sophomores John Leday and Donald Gage are looking to remain healthy and crack the depth chart after each missed 2014 with injuries. Two redshirt freshmen (Isaiah Johnson and Latrell Martin) look to make a name for themselves as will mid-year enrollees - junior Oregon transfer Chance Allen,

Senior Damian Parris along with junior Zorell Ezell and redshirt-freshman Mason Denley, both who switched from defensive line in the summer, will provide depth.

HISTORY & RECORDS

RECEIVERS & TIGHT ENDS

With the group losing five players with career starts, the receiving corps should offer plenty of opportunities as just two receivers with receptions in 2014 return.

Much like the legend of Sasquatch, the tight end has been a bit of a mystery and a fuzzy image rarely seen in Houston. In the new offense, that will not be the case. Junior Tyler McCloskey seized the position in the spring after spending his first two seasons at fullback. Redshirt-freshman Romello Brooker made the move inside from wide receiver during the spring, and the two are joined by freshmen Ryan Deshotel and Kobe Idumwonyl along with senior Hayden Daniels, junior Corey Manges and sophomore Byron Simpson.

SEASON REVIEW

The team’s leading rusher in 2013, Jackson finished 2014 with 610 yards on 112 carries for a career-best 5.4 yards-per-carry average. The Angleton, Texas, native had two 100-yard rushing games on the year and added an additional 199 yards receiving as he finished the year with seven total touchdowns.

who was ruled eligible in 2015, and true freshman Devin Smith. Sophomore Linell Bonner also added his name to the mix as the former walk-on was placed on scholarship with a strong spring season.

THE DEFENSE

A change at the top with defensive coordinator Todd Orlando making his way to Houston also means a change in defensive alignment with a three-man front giving UH fans a new look in 2015. The defense is bolstered by the return of 12 players with starting experience, including six with at least 11 starts. The entire secondary returns for Orlando and his staff, while key losses along the defensive line and linebacker corps will need to be replaced.

HISTORY & RECORDS

SEASON REVIEW

DEFENSIVE LINE

With six former defensive line starters departing due to graduation, senior Tomme Mark and junior B.J. Singleton lead the way along the line with Singleton picking up 11 starts last season and Mark owning 15 career starts. Both will move to defensive end for 2015. Sophomore Nick Thurman, who saw action in five games last season, had an impressive spring and took over the starting defensive tackle spot with senior Melvin Holland providing depth at the position. Cameron Malveaux was named the program’s MVP for the spring and placed his name atop the other defensive end spot. The junior has seen action in 25 career games with his first career start last season. Redshirt-freshman Zach Vaughan also impressed in the spring and will provide depth at end. Junior Chauntez Jackson, who has seen action in 22 career games, and redshirtfreshman Jerard Carter also have an opportunity to place their name atop the defensive end depth chart. Freshman Kameron Eloph joins the defensive line group this fall.

LINEBACKERS

Orlando will have two linebackers with starting experience returning in junior outside backer Steven Taylor and sophomore Matthew Adams on the inside, while gaining another from a switch from the defensive line in junior Tyus Bowser at the opposite outside backer spot .

2015 MEDIA GUIDE

Taylor is Houston’s returning leading tackler after finishing second on the squad in 2014 with 76 stops while leading the Cougars with nine tackles for loss and four sacks. With 19 career starts, the Cedar Hill, Texas, native will look to expand his repertoire in the new defensive system. Following a career-ending injury to Derrick Mathews last year, Adams jumped into the fray with great success, starting three games in the final half of the season and finishing the year with 40 tackles, including 4.5 for loss and two sacks. Bowser, who had two starts and 26 appearances in his first two seasons on campus at defensive end, will slide back to outside linebacker and expand on his 7.5 career sacks. The lead group is rounded out by senior inside linebacker Elandon Roberts, who has seen action in 20 games in his two seasons at Houston. Junior D’Juan Hines will also receive a look at outside linebacker after playing in 10 games last season as will sophomore Nomluis Fruge, who saw action in nine games in 2014. Junior Davonte Thomas, who played in eight games last season, and senior Luke Stice, who converted to defense from fullback in the spring, look to provide depth. Redshirt-freshman Ja’Von Shelley is also a member of the outside linebacker group but missed the spring session with an injury suffered last fall. The group adds junior college transfer Ralph Harvey Jr. and true freshmen Emeke Egbule, Leroy Godfrey, D.J. Jenkins, Jordan Milburn and Camden Ross in the fall.

DEFENSIVE BACKS

A group that returns all of its week-to-week 2014 starters, the defensive backfield is the most experienced of any position group on the entire team with six players returning with an accumulated 97 career starts. The safety positions will be manned by the two senior mainstays in Trevon Stewart and Adrian McDonald who have 35 and 29 career starts, respectively. McDonald led The American with eight turnovers (five interceptions, three fumble

UHCOUGARS.COM

HOUSTONFOOTBALL 2015 OUTLOOK 2015 SEASON

A fellow turnover machine, Stewart led the nation with 10 turnovers (six fumble recoveries and four interceptions) in 2013 and was fifth on the team last season with 56 tackles while pulling in three interceptions. Stewart ranks third nationally among active players with 291 career tackles. The two are backed by senior Earl Foster, who has played in 35 career games, and sophomore Khalil Williams, who had his redshirt removed halfway through 2014 and saw action in seven games, finishing with nine tackles. Redshirt-freshman Garrett Davis also plays a role at the safety position.

Senior Lee Hightower, in his first action since transferring from Boise State, started the season’s first six games at the position before suffering a season-ending Achilles injury. In his half-season of action, Hightower broke up three passes and picked off one pass, which he returned for a touchdown at Memphis.

Sophomore Howard Wilson, no relation to Brandon, made an immediate impact as a true freshman last season, leading all cornerbacks with 48 tackles and three interceptions as he saw action in all 13 games with three starts. Others providing competition at cornerback are seniors Marcus Dillard, a veteran of five games, and Tyler White, along with redshirt-freshmen Joeal Williams and Jeremy Winchester.

KICKER

Last year in his first season on scholarship, senior Kyle Bullard rewarded the decision as he was a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award, given annually to the nation’s top kicker. Bullard finished the regular-season, hitting 16-of-22 field goals for 73 percent, while knocking down 39-of-43 PATs.

PUNTER

After splitting punting duties for the season’s first three games, senior Logan Piper took over full time and finished the year with 43 punts with 13 landing inside his opponent’s 20-yard line and 19 resulting in fair catches with just four touchbacks on the year.

RETURNERS

Junior Demarcus Ayers quickly put the American Athletic Conference on alert in 2013 as he was named the league’s Co-Special Teams Player of the Year as a true freshman. Last season, Ayers led Houston with 34 kick returns for 592 yards (an average of 17.4 yards per return) while racking up five punt returns for 22 yards (4.4 yards per return). Senior Ryan Jackson was second on the team with three returns for 38 yards (an average of 12.7 yards per return), while sophomore Steven Dunbar was the only other Houston player with multiple kick returns, returning two for 14 yards.

DEEP SNAPPER

A two-year starter, senior Nolan Frese returns for his final season on Cullen Boulevard He was backed last season by sophomore Byron Simpson.

The defensive backs group will add two in the fall when freshmen Michael Eke and Darius Gilbert join the mix.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Junior Brandon Wilson recorded eight starts at the position while taking over after Hightower’s injury. The Shreveport, La., native finished the year with 33 tackles while breaking up one pass and forcing a fumble.

Houston appears to be set at special teams with all of its starters from 2014 returning.

SEASON REVIEW

At cornerback, four players who earned starts at the position in 2014 return, led by senior William Jackson who was named a preseason Third Team All-American by Phil Steele after 12 starts last season, often playing on an island in man-to-man coverage. The rangy corner was second in the league with 10 pass breakups while picking off two interceptions.

HOUSTONFOOTBALL AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE

HISTORY & RECORDS

SEASON REVIEW

In the course of its first two seasons, the American Athletic Conference has taken a place at the forefront of intercollegiate athletics, earning a collection of national team and individual championships and football postseason wins that place The American among the elite Division I conferences. The American consists of 12 prestigious institutions: the University of Central Florida, the University of Cincinnati, East Carolina University, the University of Connecticut, the University of Houston, the University of Memphis, the U.S. Naval Academy (in football only), the University of South Florida Southern Methodist University, Temple University, Tulane University and the University of Tulsa. Under the leadership of commissioner Mike Aresco, the American Athletic Conference has written an impressive list of accomplishments, both in and out of the competitive arena. The league has produced three NCAA championship teams – UConn men’s basketball in 2014 and UConn women’s basketball in 2014 and 2015 – and two individuals who have won NCAA titles, most recently SMU’s Bryson Dechambeau, who was the 2015 national champion in men’s golf. Additionally, American Athletic Conference teams have advanced to the College World Series, the semifinal and final rounds of the NIT and the match play round of the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. Half of the conference’s baseball-playing members reached the NCAA Championship in 2015, while The American had the best men’s basketball postseason record of any conference in 2014, when conference teams were a combined 13-4. Teams from The American have registered top-10 national rankings in football, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s soccer and men’s golf. In football, two American Athletic Conference football teams were ranked in the top 15 of the final 2013 Associated Press poll, while Memphis finished the season in the top 25 of the 2014 polls as Tigers tied UCF and Cincinnati for the conference title. Six of the 12 teams that compete in The American in 2015 played in bowl games to cap the 2014 season as Memphis, Houston and Navy earned postseason victories. Teams in The American have enjoyed almost unprecedented success since the conference’s formation. Memphis finished with 10 wins in football for the first time since 1938. SMU advanced to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship for the first time since 1993. UCF and Houston have both achieved top-10 rankings in baseball in the past two years. USF finished the 2014-15 season at No. 8 in the final men’s golf national ranking. The UConn women’s basketball team won its NCAA-record ninth and 10th national championships as a member of The American.

The American Athletic Conference holds media rights partnerships with ESPN and CBS Sports which give the conference outstanding national exposure on the two industry leaders in sports television. The football portion of the contract calls for nearly 90 percent of conference-controlled games on national broadcast or national cable platforms. The first American Athletic Conference Football Championship, which will be played Dec. 5, 2015, will be carried on either ABC or ESPN on Championship Saturday. In men’s basketball, the television deal calls for all conference-controlled games to be televised, with more than 63 percent slotted for national broadcast or national cable – a minimum of 107 games. The entire postseason tournament will be televised, including the championship game, which will be on ABC or ESPN. Sixty percent of the American’s women’s basketball games will be carried on national cable, regional sports networks or ESPN3, while the conference has a multi-year agreement with CBS Sports Network for coverage of select baseball games. American Athletic Conference teams have access to the pinnacle of college football’s postseason structure. An American representative would be chosen for the College Football Playoff semifinals if it is among the top four teams in the CFP selection committee’s final ranking. Otherwise, the league would place its champion in either the Vizio Fiesta Bowl or the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl if it is ranked higher than the champions of Conference USA, the Mid-American Conference, the Mountain West Conference and the Sun Belt Conference. Additionally, The American holds primary or secondary partnerships with 12 bowls for the current six-year cycle, ensuring multiple annual matchups against the nation’s top conferences and providing desirable postseason destinations to member institutions and their fans. The American Athletic Conference administers to its membership from a state-of-the-art office located in Providence, R.I. The location of the conference headquarters – just steps from the city’s Amtrak station and 10 minutes from T.F. Green International Airport – gives the conference easy access to its member schools. The conference headquarters is equipped with a complete video production studio, serving as the home of the American Digital Network, and small- and large-scale meeting rooms to accommodate the many coaches’ and administrators’ meetings held on-site each year.

2015 SEASON

Head Coach Cal Lutheran ‘97 First Season as Head Coach

• Tom Herman was named head coach at the University of Houston on Dec. 16, 2014, just one week after being named the Broyles Award winner, presented to the nation’s top assistant coach. • Herman has helped develop record-setting and explosive offenses in each of his 10 seasons as an offensive coordinator, including his three seasons as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Ohio State where he helped the Buckeyes win the 2015 College Football Championship with third-string quarterback Cardale Jones under center for the Big Ten Championship win over Wisconsin and College Football Playoff wins over Alabama and Oregon. • Herman’s 2014 Ohio State offense finished the season ranked fifth in scoring offense at 44.8 points per game and ninth in total offense at 511.6 yards per game despite losing Heisman Trophy candidate Braxton Miller prior to the season. With freshman J.T. Barrett taking over the reins just prior to the season, Herman simply molded the quarterback into a formidable leader who finished fifth in Heisman voting and was named a FWAA Freshman All-American. • The Buckeyes claimed the 2014 Big Ten Championship and a spot in the College Football Playoff semifinals with a 59-0 win over Wisconsin as Herman’s offense rolled to 558 total yards with Jones under center after an injury to J.T. Barrett in the regular-season finale. • The offense continued to roll in Ohio State’s 42-35 College Football Playoff semifinal win over Alabama. Facing a defense that entered the game ranked fourth nationally in scoring defense at 16.6 points per game, Herman’s offense exploded for 42 points and 537 total yards. The balanced attack yielded 256 passing yards and 281 rushing yards. • The College Football Playoff Championship stage was not too bright for Herman’s offense as the Buckeyes rolled up 538 total yards vs. Oregon, 242 through the air and 296 on the ground, in a 42-20 win over the Ducks. The 42 points marked the most scored on Oregon in the 2014 season.

• Herman’s quarterbacks in 2014 ranked second nationally with a team passing efficiency rating of 167.72, while Barrett was second nationally with a rating of 169.8 and sixth nationally with an Ohio State record 34 passing touchdowns while also adding 11 touchdowns on the ground for a Big Ten record of 45 touchdowns responsible for. The Buckeyes’ offense was sixth nationally with an average of 6.98 yards per play and second nationally with 46 plays of 30 yards or longer and 17 plays of 50 yards or longer. • Barrett, the Big Ten’s 2014 Griese-Brees Quarterback of the Year, was one of four offensive players to receive All-Big Ten honors in 2014 and was the third offensive player to receive a major Big Ten award under Herman’s leadership as Carlos Hyde was named the 2013 Ameche-Dayne Running Back of the Year and Miller was named the Chicago Tribune Silver Football, the Graham-George Offensive Player of the Year and the Griese-Brees Quarterback of the Year in both 2012 and 2013. • After leading the Big Ten in scoring in 2012 at 37.2 points per game and ranking 10th nationally in rushing at nearly 250 yards per game, Ohio State’s offense under Herman went to a new level in 2013 by ranking third nationally in scoring with 45.5 points per game and fifth in rushing with 308.6 yards per game. • The Buckeyes have been successful through the air as well. Among the 12 single season records to fall in 2013 were most touchdown passes (38) with top-five school totals in passing yards (2,846), attempts (368) and completions (238). Additional records were set in rushing yards in a season (4,321 yards, which also is a Big Ten Conference record), most total touchdowns (82) and most total offensive yards (7,167), yards per play (7.1) and yards per game (511.9). • Miller finished fifth and ninth in the Heisman Trophy voting in 2012 and 2013, respectively. Additionally, he set the school record for total offense and was a finalist for the Davey O’Brien and Manning Awards in 2012 and in 2013 he led the Big Ten in passing efficiency. • Herman, who was named the 2013 Rivals.com Big Ten Recruiter of the Year and national Top 25 recruiter, arrived in Columbus after spending three years as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Iowa State. • At Iowa State, Herman’s well-balanced offense was very evident as Iowa State quarterback Austen Arnaud ended his career as the Cyclones No. 2 all-time leading passer with 6,777 yards and 42 touchdown passes ,while running back Alexander Robinson finished his Iowa State career as the Cyclones’ fourth all-time leading rusher with 3,309 yards.

2015 MEDIA GUIDE

• Applewhite arrived in Houston after seven years at Texas, his final four years as co-offensive coordinator after serving as assistant head coach his first three seasons. Position wise, Applewhite oversaw the program’s running backs his first five seasons and the quarterbacks his final year. • In 2013, despite losing starting QB David Ash for a majority of the season, Case McCoy stepped in and helped the Longhorns post a 7-2 Big 12 record that had them in position for the league title in the last game of the season under Applewhite’s eye. The season pushed McCoy into the top 10 in career passing at UT with 3,689 yards, a list Ash ranks eighth on with 4,538. Overall, Applewhite guided the offense to an average 408.7 total yards, including 196.2 yards on the ground (No. 3 Big 12). It also set a UT single-game record with 715 total yards, including 359 on the ground and 356 in the air, against New Mexico State. • During his time with the running backs at UT, Applewhite had quite a bit of success with Fozzy Whittaker, Chris Ogbonnaya, and Cody Johnson all having advanced to the NFL. In 2012, the running backs combined for nearly 2,000 rushing yards, including 701 by freshman Johnathan Gray who earned Honorable Mention All-Big 12 honors. Joe Bergeron also posted 16 rushing TDs, which was second in the Big 12. Four backs rushed for more than 200 yards and the RBs combined for 836 receiving yards on 84 receptions. • In 2011, Texas running backs combined for 2,300 yards and 23 touchdowns while adding 36 receptions for 285 yards. Four different backs recorded five or more rushing touchdowns and four players had over 300 rushing yards, led by Malcolm Brown (707 yards, 5 TD), who missed five games due to injury in 2012, and Bergeron (454 yards, 5 TD). Brown was named Big 12 Newcomer of the Year by the Associated Press. • In 2010, the running back corps combined for 1,396 rushing yards and 14 TDs, while catching 47 passes for 322 yards. During Applewhite’s tenure, the current Texas RBs who have started at least one game in their careers fumbled only 12 times and lost only three. Of those 12, only four belonged to backs on the 2010 team and of those, only one was lost. • The running backs rushed for 1,665 yards and 24 TDs in 2009. Newton, a redshirt freshman, emerged to lead the team in rushing, helping fill the void of Ogbonnaya, who was drafted by the St. Louis Rams. Newton combined with junior Vondrell McGee, Johnson and Whittaker, who each had at least 50 carries. • In 2008, Applewhite guided a running backs unit that had to replace Jamaal Charles, who went to the NFL. Ogbonnaya, McGee, Whittaker and Johnson stepped in and combined to rush for 1,371 yards and 20 TDs, including 12 TDs by Johnson, which tied the UT freshman record. The group did not lose a fumble during the entire season and showed its versatility by combining for 65 receptions for 640 yards and three TDs, led by Ogbonnaya, who set the UT single-season record for receptions by a running back with 46. He also finished second on the single-season receiving yards list with 540. Ogbonnaya earned Honorable Mention All-Big 12 honors and was named Second-Team Academic All-American. • Applewhite returned to his alma mater after spending the 2007 season as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Alabama, where he was the youngest coordinator on the FBS level.

• In Applewhite’s one year at Alabama, the Crimson Tide bounced back from a losing season in 2006 to post a 7-6 record under firstyear coach Nick Saban. Under his guidance, Alabama improved its offensive output by nearly 40 yards per game (335.9 to 373.8) and increased its scoring from 22.9 points per game to 27.1. His offense generated 256 yards passing and 388 total yards to cap the year with a 30-24 win over Colorado in the Independence Bowl. • In 2007, the Crimson Tide gained 510 yards of offense (363 passing/147 rushing) en route to a 41-17 victory over a Tennessee team that finished the year ranked 12th nationally. Trailing 20-10 in the fourth quarter against a Georgia team that finished the year ranked No. 2, Applewhite’s offense scored 10 points in the final six minutes, including a 10-play, 88-yard drive that tied the game and sent it to overtime. • Prior to Alabama, Applewhite spent a season as offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach at Rice where, as the youngest coordinator on the FBS level, he directed an offense that scored the then-most points (350) and gained the then second-most yards (4,486) in Owls’ history. Under his guidance, Rice produced a 1,000yard rusher, a 1,000-yard receiver and a 1,000-yard passer for the first time in school history en route to the program’s first appearance in a bowl game since 1961. The 2006 Rice offense produced a 109-point improvement in scoring over the previous season. • Before his stint at Rice, Applewhite joined Greg Robinson at Syracuse where he served as quarterbacks coach in 2005. Applewhite’s coaching career began where he starred, at Texas, where he served as a graduate assistant coach and worked with the offensive line for two seasons (2003-04). In his final year in 2004, the Longhorns went 11-1, beat No. 12 Michigan in the Rose Bowl and earned a No. 4 final ranking - its highest since 1981. • The Longhorns’ team captain in 2001, Applewhite helped Texas to four straight bowl games (1999 and 2000 Cotton Bowls/2000 and 2001 Holiday Bowls) and posted a 22-8 record as a starter. He capped his career by throwing for a UT record 473 yards and a Longhornbowl-game best four TDs en route to Offensive MVP honors in a 47-43 victory over No. 20 Washington in the 2001 Holiday Bowl. The 1999 co-Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year set then-UT records for career (8,353) and season (3,357/1999) passing yards, as well as career TD passes (60). He threw for 2,453 yards and 18 TDs, UT freshman records at the time, in claiming Big 12 Freshman of the Year honors in 1998. • A native of Baton Rouge, La., Applewhite threw for 50 touchdowns and ran for eight more in two years as a starter at Catholic High School. He was tabbed an Honorable Mention prep All-America by USA Today after leading Catholic High to a 13-1 record and No. 10 national ranking as a senior. He was 25-2 as a starter.

The Heupel FileFile The Naivar

• Naivar has been a defensive coordinator or special teams coordinator for the last 16 seasons after spending 2014 at Kentucky as the special teams coordinator and safeties coach. • In his lone season at Kentucky, Naivar tutored two Freshman AllAmericans on special teams in kick returner Stanley Williams and kicker Austin MacGinnis. • MacGinnis, also named First Team All-SEC, set five UK records in his collegiate debut season, totaling 21 field goals, the most in Kentucky history. He had the most field goals in the SEC, also leading all NCAA freshmen. MacGinnis finished with a school-record 104 points - equaling the SEC lead - and was one of only five kickers in the nation with three field goals of 50+ yards, including a schoolrecord 54-yard kick. MacGinnis, who made a UK record 41 extrapoint tries without a miss in 2014, also set a school record with 25 touchbacks on kickoffs in 2014. He was the first ever Kentucky kicker named to the All-SEC team, having been named to the team by both the SEC coaches and Associated Press. • Williams led Kentucky in kickoff returns with 19 returns for 511 yards and a 26.9 average. Williams ranked second nationally among true freshmen in kickoff return average, checking in 13th overall. • Kentucky punter Landon Foster also set a school record with 27 punts dropped inside the 20-yard line in 2014 while earning second team Academic All-America honors. Foster punted 66 times in 2014, for a 42.6 yard average, including 10 punts of 50 yards or longer with just four touchbacks. • The Wildcats ranked 22nd nationally with 15 interceptions in 2014 after recording just eight interceptions in the two seasons prior to Naivar’s arrival. • Naivar arrived at Kentucky from Texas State, where he was the defensive coordinator and safeties coach for three seasons, helping the Bobcats transition from independent status (2011) to the Western Athletic Conference in 2012 to the Sun Belt Conference in 2013. He produced defensive lineman Michael Ebbitt, the 2011 Independent Defensive Player of the Year, along with two additional All-Independent Team selections in defensive end Jordan Norfleet and defensive back Xavier Daniels. He had two SecondTeam All-WAC honorees in 2012 in linebacker Joplo Bartu and cornerback Darryl Morris before adding a Second-Team All-Sun Belt pick in 2013 in safety Justin Iwuji. • Naivar spent four seasons at Rice as special teams coordinator and safeties coach in 2010 co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach from 2007-09. Their best season came in 2008 when Rice went 10-3, the Owls’ best record since the 1950s, capped by a share of the Conference USA Western Division championship and a 38-14 rout of Western Michigan in the Texas Bowl. In the secondary, Naivar coached safety Andrew Sendejo, currently with the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings, and safety Travis Bradshaw, who was named a Freshman All-American in 2008 and led the nation in solo tackles in 2009. • Naivar moved to special teams coordinator and defensive line coach in 2010, helping guide Rice to some impressive accomplishments. Led by All-America punter Kyle Martens, the Owls were sixth in the nation in net punting. Rice ranked 26th in the nation in punt returns and had the nation’s 10th-best kickoff returner, Charles Ross, who averaged 29 yards per return.

• Naivar also coached at Texas State from 2004-06, where he was defensive coordinator and safeties coach. That term was highlighted by the 2005 season, when the Bobcats posted an 11-3 record and advanced to the semifinals of the FCS playoffs. The Bobcats ranked in the nation’s top 25 in scoring defense and total defense while generating 33 turnovers. His first season as Texas State saw defensive lineman Fred Evans named the Southland Conference Newcomer of the Year before being named an AFCA All-American, Southland Conference Player of the Year and Southland Defensive Player of the Year in 2005. Evans was one of two defensive players to be named Southland Conference Player of the Year under Naivar as defensive back Walter Musgrove earned the Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year honor in 2006. The two were part of a defensive group that earned seven First Team All-Southland Conference honors in Naivar’s first three seasons with the Bobcats. • Naivar was a graduate assistant at New Mexico and TCU before landing at Southern Illinois as special teams coordinator and defensive line coach, where punter John Armitrano earned Second Team Missouri Valley Conference honors in 1998 and kicker Scott Everhart was named to the league’s All-Newcomer Team in 1999. Two of Naivar’s defensive linemen, Andre Bailey and Bryan Archibald were named to the school’s All-Century team in 2013. • From there he coached at Sam Houston State, serving at various times as defensive coordinator, special teams coordinator, safeties coach and defensive line coach. The top campaign at SHSU was 2001, when the Bearkats went 10-3, were co-champions of the Southland Conference and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Division I-AA playoffs before losing to eventual national champion Montana. Naivar placed five players on All-Southland Conference teams while in Huntsville. • Naivar was a four-year letterman, playing safety and quarterback, and was team captain at Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene, Texas. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees at Hardin-Simmons and began his coaching career there, helping lead the Cowboys to the NAIA Division II Playoffs in 1994 and ‘95.

• With extensive ties to the state of Texas, Giles has developed two Ted Hendricks Award winners as the nation’s top defensive end and has helped guide teams to 11 bowls including two national championship appearances while at Texas, claiming the 2005 BCS National Championship with the Longhorns. • In Giles’ lone season at Louisiana Tech, he helped a develop a Bulldog defense that led the nation in turnovers gained with 42 and led Louisiana Tech to at least nine wins for just the sixth time in school history including a win over Illinois in the Heart of Dallas Bowl. With Giles’ help, the Louisiana Tech defense ranked second nationally with 114 tackles for loss and led Conference USA in rushing defense. Defensive end Houston Bates was named the Heart of Dallas Bowl MVP after exploding for 5.5 tackles for loss including 4.5 sacks in the game. Bates finished the year leading C-USA with 10 sacks, ranking 16th nationally. Bates received All-Conference USA honors while fellow end Deldrick Canty was named to the league’s All-Freshman Team.

• In his first season with Texas, Giles aided in the Longhorns No. 10 ranking in total defense (302.9 ypg) and a No. 8 ranking in scoring defense (16.4 ppg). Three of the defensive ends earned conference honors with Crowder and Robison being named Honorable Mention All-Big 12, while Orakpo earned Defensive Freshman of the Year honors. • Giles spent the previous two seasons as an assistant coach at Houston, where he worked with the Cougars’ defensive line. He joined the Houston staff prior to the 2003 season after spending three seasons at SMU. Giles helped the Cougars to a 7-6 mark and a spot in the Hawaii Bowl in 2003, the first bowl appearance for UH in eight seasons. Of the six Houston players to receive All-Conference honors in Giles’ two-year span at UH, two came from the defensive line. • After joining the SMU staff in the spring of 2000, Giles tutored a defensive line that developed into a unit that led the Western Athletic Conference and ranked 22nd nationally in total defense (320.1 yards per game) in 2001. • Giles was a graduate assistant coach at Texas in 1999, where he assisted with defensive backs and helped the Longhorns earn a Big 12 South Division championship, a spot in the Big 12 Championship game and a Cotton Bowl berth. Prior to accepting a graduate assistant position at UT, Giles coached the defensive line and served as a strength and conditioning coach at Texas State in 1998.

• In close to a decade with the Longhorns, Giles helped develop two Ted Hendricks Award winners as the nation’s top defensive end in Jackson Jeffcoat (2013) and Brian Orakpo (2008), along with two other finalists in Sergio Kindle (2009) and Tim Crowder (2006).

• A four-year letterwinner at Texas (1987-90), Giles played defensive end and linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons and went on to play in the Canadian Football League from 1994-97 and helped the Toronto Argonauts win the Grey Cup Championship in 1996.

• In 2013, Jeffcoat led the team in tackles (86), TFLs (22), sacks (13.0) and pressures (19), and tied for first in fumbles recovered (3). Jeffcoat also earned First-Team All-America honors and was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, while Cedric Reed was tabbed First-Team All-Big 12 by the AP.

• A three-year starter at UT, Giles earned AP All-SWC honors as a senior when he helped the Longhorns to the 1990 SWC Championship and an appearance in the 1991 Cotton Bowl. Texas was 10-2 and finished the year ranked 12th that year. Giles also helped the 1987 Longhorns to a No. 19 final ranking and a victory in the Bluebonnet Bowl. He led Texas in sacks in 1988 (6.5) and 1989 (7.0) and finished with 22 in his career (T-No. 10 on the UT all-time list). A semifinalist for the Outland Trophy and two-time GTE Academic All-SWC selection, his nine career fumble recoveries are tied for second on the UT all-time chart. Giles was awarded UT’s Tenacity Award twice during his collegiate career.

• In 2012, Alex Okafor was a First-Team All-Big 12 pick for the secondstraight year and earned the CFPA’s Elite Defensive Lineman Trophy, while Jeffcoat was an Honorable Mention All-League pick despite missing the final six regular season games with an injury. Okafor led the Big 12 in sacks and earned Defensive MVP honors at the Alamo Bowl, registering a dominant 4.5 sacks and six TFL before being drafted in the fourth round of the 2013 NFL Draft by Arizona. • In 2011, Okafor and Jeffcoat started all 13 games at defensive end with each ranking in the top 10 in the Big 12 in sacks and tackles for loss. Okafor was an AFCA All-American and unanimous First-Team All-Big 12 selection after recording a team-high seven sacks to go with 14 TFL and 17 pressures The two ends helped the defense rank first in the Big 12 in total defense (11th NCAA), run defense (sixth NCAA), pass efficiency defense (10th NCAA) and pass defense. • In 2010, senior DE Sam Acho became one of the most decorated players in UT history. Acho won the William V. Campbell Trophy, the Wuerffel Trophy and the ARA Sportsmanship Award, along with becoming a two-time Academic All-American, a Second-Team All-America selection by the WCFF, a member of the AFCA Good Works team and a Lott Trophy finalist, while recording 59 tackles, 17 TFL, nine sacks, 18 pressures, five forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries. • In 2009, Giles helped mold senior DE/LB Sergio Kindle into the first player in college football history to be a finalist for both the Hendricks Award (nation’s top DE) and Butkus Award (nation’s top LB). Under Giles’ guidance, the 2008 season saw Brian Orakpo become one of the most dominant players in college football and one of the most honored in UT history. An eventual first round pick of the Washington Redskins, Orakpo became Texas’ 19th unanimous All-American and won the Nagurski Trophy (nation’s top defensive player), Lombardi Award (nation’s top lineman) and Hendricks Award (nation’s top defensive end). • In 2007, Giles led a group that helped Texas rank sixth in the nation against the run (93.4 ypg). The 2006 season saw Giles’ defensive ends produce Texas’ first 10-sack season since 1998. Crowder, who earned Second-Team All-America honors, was a finalist for the Hendricks Award and led the team with 10.5 sacks. Robison also pitched in with 5.5 sacks and 15 pressures on his way to Second-Team All-Big 12 honors. Brian Orakpo added 4.5 sacks and 11 pressures.

HOUSTON -- Playing in front of an attendance of 40,755, the largest on-campus crowd in school history in the inaugural game at TDECU Stadium, Houston Football wasn’t able to overcome six turnovers, falling 27-7 to UTSA. Despite allowing 27 points to the Roadrunners, the Cougars’ defense extended its turnover streak to 24 straight games on an Adrian McDonald fumble recovery in the first quarter. UTSA’s David Glasco, who ran for 81 yards on 25 carries, scored on a 3-yard run in the first quarter after a mishandled Houston punt gave the Roadrunners their first opportunity in the Houston red zone. Glasco then added a 2-yard touchdown run in the second quarter to extend the Roadrunners’ lead to 14-0. UTSA’s Jarveon Williams’ 11-yard touchdown run capped a 13-play, 60-yard drive in the third quarter, and Sean Ianno kicked a 26-yard field goal after Bennett Okotcha intercepted John O’Korn’s pass in Houston territory. Ianno added a 30-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to put UTSA ahead 27-0. The Cougars posted a fourth-quarter touchdown, on what proved to be the last drive of the game for Houston, on an 8-yard run by junior Ryan Jackson when senior quarterback Billy Cosh made his Cougar debut on the scoring drive. Deontay Greenberry led the Cougars with six receptions for 96 yards.O’Korn finished the night 21-of-43 for 204 passing yards. Defensively, three Cougars tallied double-digit tackle games, led by Derrick Mathews, who tied his career best with 16 tackles and record his 14th career double-digit tackle effort. Efrem Oliphant finished with 14 tackles for the 10th double-digit tackle game of his career, while Trevon Stewart added 10 tackles for the 12th double-digit tackle game of his career.

HOUSTON -- Houston poured in 477 yards of offense, led by running back Kenneth Farrow, who ran for 130 yards and a touchdown, while the Cougars forced six turnovers en route to a 47-0 shutout win over Grambling State at TDECU Stadium. The shutout was the 38th in program history as five different Cougars jumped in the scoring action, notching five touchdowns. Kyle Bullard contributed with a career-high 17 points on four field goals and five extra points. Contributing to the scoring was receiver Greg Ward Jr., who notched his first career game with multiple touchdowns, tallying a receiving and rushing score to lead the Cougars. Farrow and Ryan Jackson each added a rushing touchdown, while defensive end Vincent Hall recovered a fourth-quarter fumble for a touchdown to cap the 47 points for Houston. Deontay Greenberry finished the night with 110 yards on five receptions including a 67-yard pass from John O’Korn serving as the key play in the Cougars’ second touchdown drive. Houston jumped on top quickly, with Ward scoring just 48 seconds into the game on a 12-yard run - set up by a 55-yard run by Farrow. A pair of Bullard field goals - 42 and 38 yards - made it 13-0. Farrow then scored from two yards out, Jackson had a 12-yard run and Ward hauled in a 10-yard scoring strike from O’Korn as Houston made it 34-0 at halftime.

HOUSTON -- Houston used 399 rushing yards on 52 attempts and saw five different Cougars score a touchdown en route to a 47-14 win over UNLV at TDECU Stadium. The Cougars were just one yard short of notching their first 400-yard rushing game since 1985. Houston’s offensive effort was highlighted by two 100-yard rushers as Ryan Jackson (147) and Kenneth Farrow (113) combined for 260 rushing yards. Five different Cougars scored a touchdown, including four with a rushing touchdown. The Houston defense continued its dominance, forcing three turnovers to extend its turnover streak to 27 straight games. Adrian McDonald led the attack with his second interception of the year - extending his turnover streak to seven games. UNLV jumped out to a 7-0 lead early in the first quarter, but the Cougars held the Rebels scoreless until the 2:52 mark in the third quarter. H ouston quickly answered UNLV’s first scoring drive with a 1-yard rush by O’Korn to make it a 7-7 game. Less than two minutes later, the Cougars used a 35-yard rush by Spencer to cap a 5-play, 75-yard drive in just 57 seconds and take a 13-7 lead. Less than 30 seconds into the second half, Houston used a 26-yard pass from O’Korn to Jackson to take a 20-7 lead. Spencer added his second score of the game on a 16-yard pass from O’Korn to extend the lead to 27-7 with 11:47 left in the third. Kyle Bullard provided six points in the second half on two 41-yard field goals, the first time in his career he has notched two 40+ scores in a game to give UH a 33-14 lead. Farrow added to the offensive action with his 1-yard rushing touchdown early in the fourth quarter, which then gave way to a 11-yard rush by Webb to put Houston up 47-14 and close out the night’s scoring.

PROVO, Utah -- Taysom Hill threw for 200 yards and a touchdown while running for 160 yards and another score, and No. 25 BYU beat Houston 33-25. BYU jumped out to an early 23-0 lead, but the Cougars scored 15 straight before halftime. John O’Korn passed for 307 yards and three touchdowns, including a 45-yard heave to Daniel Spencer as time ran out in the first half. Deontay Greenberry caught a pair of O’Korn’s TDs. BYU appeared to score on its first drive of the game, but Hill’s 32-yard pass to Devon Blackmon was called back by an illegal formation penalty. Houston’s Ryan Jackson was tackled in the end zone by Zac Stout for the safety to put BYU up 2-0. Williams’ 11-yard touchdown run pushed the lead to 9-0 before Hill scored on a 5-yard keeper. Kyle Bullard attempted a 38-yard field goal early in the second quarter but the ball barely got off the ground because of a muffed hold. Hill hit Mitch Matthews with a 6-yard scoring pass to make it 23-0 with 8:57 to go before halftime. Houston rallied, and after Bullard hit a 29-yard field goal, defensive tackle Joey Mbu intercepted Hill at the BYU 29, and Houston capped the ensuing series with O’Korn’s 7-yard touchdown pass to Greenberry. Hill found Mitch Juergens with a 38-yard pass, but Adrian McDonald forced a fumble and ran the ball back 28 yards to the BYU 45.

HOUSTON -- Houston’s Kyle Bullard accounted for all 12 points as UH fell in heartbreaking fashion, 17-12, in its American Athletic Conference opener to UCF at TDECU Stadium. Bullard’s four-field goal performance was his second of the season with as many three pointers, while he also notched a program-record with 18 straight field goals made for Houston. A 19-yard rush and a chance to score a game-winning touchdown by Greg Ward Jr. with under 30 seconds left in the game resulted in a fumble through the back of the end zone and a touchback, allowing UCF to secure the win. UCF’s offense was held scoreless in the first and fourth quarters, but used a 10-point third quarter to make it a two-score game late. Defensively, the Cougars were led by Efrem Oliphant, who notched 10 tackles for his 14th career double-digit tackle game. Joey Mbu recorded a career-high eight tackles, including one for a loss, while Gavin Stansbury and Adrian McDonald each tallied seven stops in the effort. The Houston defense kept its turnover streak alive with its 28th consecutive game forcing a turnover when Stansbury forced a UCF fumble and Oliphant picked up the recovery, which eventually led to the game’s first points with 9:50 remaining in the first quarter. Houston jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead on the 39-yard field goal by Bullard following the turnover. The Cougars held UCF scoreless in the first, but the Knights responded with a touchdown with 9:27 left in the second on a 6-yard pass from Justin Holman to Jackie Williams.. Houston was able to execute another successful field goal, a 42-yarder by Bullard, with under two minutes left in the opening half to make it a 7-6 game at the break. A 52-yard pass for a score from Holman to Breshad Perriman, along with a field goal early in the third quarter gave UCF a17-6 advantage at the end of three quarters. With a career-long 51-yard field goal, Bullard recorded the first 50+ yard field goal in TDECU Stadium history when he trimmed Houston’s deficit to 17-9 midway through the fourth. Bullard then accounted for his fourth score of the game on a 49-yarder with 4:46 left that made it a 17-12 game. Score by Quarters UCF (2-2, 1-0) Houston (2-3, 0-1) Qtr 1st 2nd 3rd 4th

Score by Quarters Temple (4-2, 2-1) Houston (4-3, 2-1)

TAMPA -- Houston held USF to its lowest scoring output of the season en route to an impressive 27-3 road win, its third straight victory, at Raymond James Stadium. The Cougars improved to 5-3 and 3-1 in American Athletic Conference play with the win, while USF fell to 3-6 and 2-3 in league action. The 3-1 record placed Houston in a five-way tie atop The American stands midway through league play. Houston used a 112-yard rushing day from junior running back Kenneth Farrow on a career-high 22 carries including a one-yard touchdown. The game marked the third 100-yard rushing game of the season for Farrow, who also notched an 8-yard receiving touchdown. Fellow junior running back Ryan Jackson rushed for two scores and 73 yards on 14 carries. Sophomore quarterback Greg Ward Jr. finished the afternoon 15-of-19 for 89 passing yards and a touchdown. Defensively, Houston was led by senior linebacker Efrem Oliphant’s nine tackles. The Cougars managed to force a late-game turnover on an interception from junior safety Adrian McDonald. McDonald’s interception kept Houston’s turnover streak alive as it improved to a nation’s best 31 straight games forcing a turnover. Houston held USF scoreless in the first half, marking a second first half shutout this season, the first vs. Grambling back on Sept. 6. The Cougars jumped on board early with a 1-yard touchdown run by Farrow with 2:54 left in the first quarter. They added another score with 7:38 left in the third when Jackson ran in for a 1-yard rush. Down 14-0, USF kicker Marvin Kloss was able to put the Bulls on the board with a 33-yard field goal with 1:52 left in the third. Houston used an 8-yard pass from Ward to Farrow with 9:34 remaining to go ahead 20-3 and then added a 24-yard run by Jackson with 5:27 left to put the game out of reach at 27-3.

COACHING STAFF

HOUSTON -- Houston used four forced turnovers from its defense and a career night from Greg Ward Jr. en route to a 31-10 win over conference leader Temple at TDECU Stadium. Houston’s defense once again made a strong showing, highlighted by a forced fumble and recovery by Steven Taylor in the end zone to keep Temple down 17-10 midway through the third. Houston used the momentum from Taylor’s turnover to outscore Temple 14-0 in the final 20 minutes of play. Accompanying the Houston defense’s effort, the offense showed well, producing 439 offensive yards, the third-best total this season. Ward, who improved to 2-0 as starting quarterback led Houston with a career-high 268 passing yards on 29 completions in 33 attempts. Defensively, the Cougars saw interceptions from William Jackson, Trevon Stewart and Howard Wilson in addition to Taylor’s fumble. Houston was able to capitalize on the four turnovers, turning them into 14 points. The Cougars struck first when kicker Kyle Bullard nailed a 34-yard field goal with 7:19 left in the first quarter to put Houston up 3-0. It took just eight seconds for Houston to extend its lead to 10-0 following Stewart’s interception return for a touchdown midway through the opening quarter. Temple jumped on board with a 22-yard field goal to close out the first quarter, making it a 10-3 game. It didn’t take long for the Cougars to strike in the second quarter as Kenneth Farrow used a 4-yard run to give Houston a 17-3 lead. Temple continued to claw back and executed a 39-yard pass from P.J. Walker to Keith Kirkwood to pull within seven heading into the second half. After a 74-yard pass and a first-and-goal situation, Temple had a chance to tie the game midway through the third, but Taylor’s fumble and recovery in the end zone kept the Owls off the board and gave Houston the ball back on its 20-yard line. Following that momentum shift, Houston used two late third quarter touchdowns passes from Ward to Deontay Greenberry and Ryan Jackson to put the Cougars ahead 31-10.

CINCINNATI -- Houston saw its 12-play drive that picked up five first downs with time expiring fall just short as the Cougars fell 38-31 at Cincinnati in its final regular-season game. Coming down to the final play of the game, Greg Ward Jr.’s pass fell incomplete, ending a 12-play, 84-yard drive, sending the Bearcats on with the win. Cincinnati got on the board first on its opening drive of the game as Mike Boone rushed for a 5-yard touchdown. Houston responded on the following drive as Kenneth Farrow scored from nine yards out to even the score midway through the first quarter. Cincinnati would again jump out to a 7-point lead as Alex Chisum pulled in an 8-yard pass from Gunner Kiel with 9:30 remaining in the second. The Cougars cut the lead to four as Kyle Bullard hit a 27-yard field goal. UC struck again with 33 seconds left in the first half when Kiel hit Shaq Washington from 12 yards out. The Bearcats provided the opening score of the second half as Boone collected his second touchdown run of the game, this one from one-yard out. UH responded on the next drive as Ward rushed for a 40-yard touchdown run to cut the lead to 28-17. Cincinnati extended its lead on Boone’s third score of the day, from six yards out with 15 seconds remaining in the third. Houston didn’t wait long to answer as Ward hit Ambles for an 89-yard touchdown on the first play of the fourth.

Defensively, Houston extended its forced turnover streak to 34 straight games on a fumble recovery in the third quarter. Matthew Adams forced the fumble on a sack, while Gavin Stansbury recovered the loose ball. For the second straight year, Houston scored on its first offensive play vs. SMU as Ward ran for 38 yards just 1:30 into the game.

PITT

FORT WORTH -- Houston quarterback Greg Ward had just thrown his third touchdown in a flurried comeback that included two recovered onside kicks in a row to get the Cougars within a point in the Armed Forces Bowl. Interim coach David Gibbs never had a second thought on what to do with less than a minute left in the game. Deontay Greenberry, already with two TD catches in that final 3:41, made a leaping catch in the back of the end zone for the two-point conversion and the Cougars beat Pittsburgh 35-34 with an improbable comeback - the largest in an FBS game in 2015, and largest ever in a bowl game that didn’t go into overtime. Pitt led 31-6 when ACC offensive player of the year James Conner had his second touchdown run with 14 minutes left in the game. The Panthers were still up 34-13 after Chris Blewitt’s 29-yard field goal with 6:14 left before Houston’s big finish. Ward had an 8-yard TD pass to Greenberry before the Cougars recovered their first onside kick. That led to a 29-yard TD catch by Demarcus Ayers on a fourth-and-13 play with 1:58 left, and Houston tried another onside kick. While the second one didn’t go 10 yards on the rain-slickened field, the ball was touched by the same Pitt defender who couldn’t handle the first one before Houston running back Kenneth Farrow jumped on it at the Cougars 43. Greenberry started the drive with a 38-yard catch, then on third-and-16 had a 25-yard TD with 59 seconds left. Ward, the former Cougars receiver, had 237 of his 274 yards passing in the fourth quarter and also ran for 92 yards. Farrow ran 22 times for 103 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars. Conner’s 1-yard TD run a minute into the second quarter capped a 15-play, 92-yard drive, and Pitt led until the final minute of the game. The Cougars missed an extra point after Farrow’s 2-yard TD in the second quarter when Kyle Bullard slipped while kicking. Score by Quarters Houston (8-5) Pittsburgh (6-7) Qtr

Montana completed two passes for 47 yards, then used a pass interference call to reach the Houston three. On third down from the two, Montana scampered in for the score. He then hit Haines with the two-point conversion pass to make it a six-point game. Houston was forced to punt again, but the Irish’s next drive ended when Montana fumbled with less than two minutes on the clock and UH’s Tommy Ebner recovered. Houston advanced to its 29, and on fourth-and-one, sent running back Emmett King over left tackle to try and run out the clock. King was stopped for no gain, and Notre Dame and Montana had 29 yards to go in 28 seconds. Montana gained 11 yards around right end on first down, then passed for 10 to Haines.

Clark, a senior, was named the game’s Most Outstanding Player.

THE COUGARS

Houston quarterback Terry Elston hit Eric Herring with a six-yard touchdown pass with 12 seconds left to give the Cougars a 17-14 victory over seventh-ranked Nebraska in the 1980 Cotton Bowl. The victory lifted UH to an 11-1 record on the year, tying the most wins in school GAME STATISTICS Nebraska 7 0 0 7 14 history, and a No. 5 final national ranking.

Attendance: 72,000 Through the next two quarters, the teams traded punts and turnovers with neither team reaching its opponents’ 30. The entire third quarter, in fact, was a series of “three and outs.” Then Houston embarked on a 59-yard, 13-play drive that resulted in a 41-yard Hatfield field goal. Again, Elston hit Phea for a gain of 20 on the drive, which reached the Nebraska 24 before Hatfield’s kick. Houston took a 10-7 lead with 8:25 left. Houston forced another Nebraska punt, but gave the ball back one play later when Newhouse fumbled. From first down on the Houston 31, the Cornhuskers drove to the six, where Quinn hit tight end Jeff Finn with a six-yard touchdown pass. Dean Sukup added the extra point to give NU a 14-10 lead with less than four minutes to play. Starting on its own 34, the Cougars began a purposeful march downfield. Twice, they converted on third downs until reaching the Nebraska 20 with 59 seconds to play. An Elston to Herring hookup gained 11, but the next three plays netted just five yards, and the Cougars faced fourth-and-goal from the six with 19 seconds left. Then Elston found Herring cutting across the goal line for the touchdown, and Hatfield added the extra point to give UH a come-from-behind Cotton Bowl victory of its own.

Houston answered with its last touchdown of the day, going 74 yards on 13 plays. Donald Jordan scored on a six-yard run and Mike Clendenen added the point after, but UH trailed 27-14 with less than three minutes remaining. Oklahoma recovered UH’s onside kick attempt and Sims ripped off another long run, this one of 48 yards, to set up Ron Mills’ two-yard score. Keeling missed the PAT, but it was the only thing that went wrong for OU in the quarter. The Sooners scored their final touchdown on a 28-yard interception return by defensive end John Truitt, ending a nightmare quarter for Houston. Shepard was named the game’s MVP. Houston ended its season, the third straight in which it went to a bowl game, with a 7-4-1 record.

Heisman Trophy winner Doug Flutie brought his Boston College Eagles to Dallas, but it was the rushing of Flutie’s backfield mates that proved the difference in BC’s 45-28 victory over Houston in the 49th Annual Cotton Bowl.

Boston College added two touchdowns to extend its lead to 31-7. Flutie hit Gerard Phelan, who caught seven passes in the first half, over the middle for a 13-yard touchdown after driving BC 53 yards in five plays. UH quarterback Gerald Landry was then intercepted on Houston’s next play, and once again Boston College capitalized. Strachan scored on a two-yard run after Flutie had picked up 27 yards on a scramble to the two. Houston came back before the half when Landry hit Larry Shepherd with a 15-yard touchdown pass. Landry’s 38-yard completion to tight end Carl Hilton was the biggest play of the UH scoring drive. The Cougars made it close in the third. After five punts to start the period, Houston mounted a scoring march, thanks to a 26-yard Landry to Hilton completion and a 33-yard run by Raymond Tate to set up Tate’s two-yard touchdown jaunt. Then, Audrey McMillian intercepted a Flutie pass at the Boston College 25 and took it back for the touchdown, bringing the Cougars within three at 31-28. On Houston’s next possession, a couple of costly penalties hurt the Cougars and slowed their momentum. Boston College, uncharacteristically, went to its running game, and nine straight rushes resulted in a four-yard Strachan touchdown and a 38-28 BC lead. Another turnover stopped the Cougars and they were unable to take advantage of Flutie’s second interception of the half. Stradford provided the final margin when he scored on an 18-yard run with 1:08 remaining. Hilton caught five passes for 97 yards for UH, which finished the season with a 7-5 record.

It was not until the clock read 13:52 in the final period that Syracuse’s McNabb scored his second touchdown of the day, on a two-yard run, to give the Orangemen a 23-14 lead. Houston was only able to put three more points on the board as Sebastian Villarreal hit a 23yard field goal with 10:50 left in the game. As it turned out, the ground game of Syracuse was just too much for the Cougar defense. Thomas rushed into the endzone from six yards out to put an end to the day’s scoring at 30-17.

Broussard bobbled a handoff and fumbled at the UH five, but WSU flanker Victor Wood recovered and took the ball the remaining five yards for the touchdown. After forcing a Houston punt, WSU started on an 80-yard drive. Rosenbach hit Wood from 15 yards out with 8:39 left in the half, and Jason Hanson’s PAT made it WSU 14, UH 3. Ware’s next pass was intercepted and returned to the Houston 15. Hanson’s 33-yard field goal extended the Cougars’ lead to 17-3. Houston pulled to within eight on its next possession when Ware hit Jason Phillips for a 44yard completion and Chuck Weatherspoon scored on a one-yard run for UH’s first touchdown of the day. However, Roman Anderson missed what would prove to be a crucial extra point attempt following Weatherspoon’s score. Washington State answered with a 10-play, 75-yard drive before halftime. Rosenbach scored from the one, and WSU led 24-9 at the break. Houston’s Cougars were not able to mount a drive in the third quarter until David Dacus replaced Ware with 6:07 on the clock. He quickly hit Kevin Mason with a 53-yard bomb down the right sideline. After a failed conversion pass, Houston trailed 24-15. Washington State penetrated to the Houston eight, where Alton Montgomery stepped in front of a Rosenbach pass at the goal line and took it all the way back to the WSU 28 for a 72-yard return.

After the Anderson PAT, Houston trailed by two with 13:16 left in the game. Washington State’s next drive stalled on the UH 34, where Rosenbach’s pass on fourth and three fell incomplete. Houston was unable to sustain a drive and the teams exchanged punts. Houston got the ball back with 5:16 left and drove from its own 20 to the WSU 31. From there, Dacus hit Dixon with a 21-yard pass to the 10. Dixon eluded one tackle, but was hit by linebacker Tuineau Alipate and fumbled. The ball rolled to the five, where it was recovered by WSU’s Artie Holmes with 2:44 left. WSU ran out the clock to secure the 24-22 victory.

After Houston was held without a Attendance: 41,414 touchdown before halftime, Tyron Carrier returned the opening kickoff of the second half 79 yards for his fourth TD this season. He took the ball near the left sideline, then ran to the middle of the field before shooting through a gap and running untouched to get the Cougars within 24-13. Air Force immediately responded with its first kickoff return for a touchdown since 1985. Jonathan Warzeka fielded the ball and stepped back into the end zone before running 100 yards. Five Houston players got their hands on him, but couldn’t get him down. According to STATS LLC, which has such data only since 1996, it was only the sixth game in that span involving FBS teams when there were kickoff returns for touchdowns on consecutive plays. None of them had been in a bowl game. After the kickoff returns, Keenum threw a 10-yard TD to Patrick Edwards to make it 31-20, but that was all the Cougars got. That gave Keenum a TD pass in 30 consecutive games , but this was the first time in that streak that he had more picks than scores. The Cougars entered the Fort Worth Bowl leading the nation in total yards (581) while averaging 44 points. They managed only 331 total yards against the Falcons. Air Force had allowed only 149 yards passing a game this season, even after giving up 377 in its regular-season finale at BYU. Clark’s 22-yard TD midway through the second quarter, when he took a pitch to the right and ran untouched to the end zone, made it 21-3. The only pass on that 11-play drive was a 13-yard completion by Jefferson, who by then was 5 of 5 for 71 yards, 10 more than Keenum. When Jefferson slipped down trying to run on third-and-goal from the 2 with 17 seconds and no timeouts left just before halftime, he quickly got the offense off the field and the kicking team got out in time for Erik Soderberg’s 27-yard field goal that made it 24-6.

Vanderbilt’s Patton Robinette threw 1-(-3); VU: Matthews 5-143, Krause 1-11. two 50-yard touchdown passes to Jordan Matthews. Robinette, starting after senior Attendance: 42,717 Austyn Carta-Samuels had season-ending surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee, also had an 8-yard scoring run as Vanderbilt built a 24-0 lead in the first half. After Houston’s big third quarter, Vanderbilt reclaimed the lead on Brian Kimbrow’s 21-yard touchdown run. It was the start of 17 fourth-quarter points for the Commodores. “The thing that’s probably the most exciting to me is there is a culture of winning at Vanderbilt,” Franklin said. “These guys know how to win. A lot of different ways they do it, ugly, pretty, people can describe it however they want.” Vanderbilt (9-4) closed the season with five straight wins, adding to Franklin’s status as a possible candidate for coaching vacancies, including at Penn State and with the NFL Browns and Redskins. The Commodores played in three straight bowl games under Franklin - a first for the program - and completed their first back-to-back nine-win seasons. Franklin talked after the game about Vanderbilt’s returning players. He left the interview room without replying when asked if he would be back. No Houston defender was near Matthews on his second 50-yard scoring catch in the second quarter. It capped a dominant first half for the Commodores. Levine said he told his players at halftime they could make up the 24-point deficit quickly. “We talked at halftime and said they scored 24 and we scored zero and that’s what we could do in the third quarter,” Levine said. “Lo and behold, after those 15 minutes, it was all tied up.” A lost fumble by Robinette set up Farrow’s 6-yard touchdown run to start Houston’s third-quarter comeback. Houston built on the momentum. Spencer’s 62-yard run set up O’Korn’s 6-yard touchdown pass to Ambles. O’Korn’s 58-yard pass to Ambles set up a 30-yard field goal by Kyle Bullard. O’Korn’s 67-yard touchdown pass to Greenberry tied the game. Matthews, a senior who set Southeastern Conference records for career catches and yards receiving, had five catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns and was named the game’s MVP. Robinette completed only one pass to another receiver - for 11 yards to Jonathan Krause. Robinette completed 6 of 17 passes for 154 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. Seymour had 14 carries for 46 yards. Matthews took advantage of a lead block by Krause to make his first touchdown catch. A forced fumble by linebacker Chase Garnham set up the Commodores’ second touchdown. After Houston’s O’Korn threw a pass to Greg Ward Jr., a big hit by Garnham forced the fumbled recovered by Andrew Williamson at the Houston 16. Robinette, making his third career start, scored on an 8-yard keeper on fourth down.

SEASON REVIEW

Case Keenum finished his record-setting career with another performance for the history books. The sixth-year senior threw for 532 yards and three touchdowns, leading No. 20 Houston to 30-14 victory against No. 24 Penn State in the TicketCity Bowl. GAME STATISTICS The Cougars (13-1) finished with a school Houston 17 7 3 3 30 record for victories and made Tony Levine a Penn State 0 7 7 0 14 winner in his debut as Houston coach. Levine took over when Kevin Sumlin left to take UH – Edwards 40 pass from Keenum (Hogan kick), 1Q–13:08 the Texas A&M job after the regular season. UH – Hogan 35 field goal, 1Q–9:12 UH – J.

PSU– Brown 69 pass from Bolden (Fera kick), 3Q–2:38 “I’m biased, obviously. I’d put him right UH – Hogan 22 field goal, 4Q–14:52 at the top,” Levine said when asked where UH PSU Keenum ranks among the best college quarterbacks of all time. “You don’t win 13 games First Downs 25 14 Rushes-Yards 16-68 44-169 by accident and I don’t think you don’t break Comp.-Att.-Int. 45-69-0 7-27-3 the records he broke by accident, either.” Passing Yards 532 137 Keenum wasn’t concerned with his place. Total Offense 600 306 He leaves Houston as the school career leader Punts-Average 6-42.5 9-41.6 with 37 wins, and that’s what he chose to Fumbles-Lost 0-0 2-0 Third Down Conv. 6-17 6-18 focus on. “As far as rankings and all that goes, Penalties-Yards 6-55 6-55 Time of Possession 27:49 32:11 I’m concerned with our team ranking and how we end up,” Keenum said. “Thirteen Rushing – UH: Sims 6-39, Hayes 2-20, Keenum 7-10, and one, I hope we end up in the top 15 in Team 1-(-1); PSU: Green 15-63, Redd 14-53, Belton 6-38, the country.” Bolden 6-16, D.

Penn State was allowing 162 yards passing per game, but Keenum Attendance: 46,817 threw for more than double that by halftime. The Cougars raced out to a 17-0 lead in the first quarter behind Keenum’s record-setting period. According to TicketCity officials, Louisville’s Browning Nagle had the old mark with 223 yards against Alabama in the first quarter of the 1991 Fiesta Bowl. Keenum worked the spread offense to perfection, with five different Cougars catching at least five balls. Patrick Edwards, one of the country’s leading receivers, had 228 yards and two scores in the last game of his collegiate career. Justin Johnson had 12 catches for 148 yards. Keenum is the ninth player in bowl history to pass for at least 500 yards. He thought he could have done better. “We left a lot out there,” Keenum said. “There were a lot of throws I missed.” Houston came into the game determined to end the season on a high note having its BCS Bowl hopes dashed on Dec. 3. The undefeated Cougars fell to Southern Miss in the Conference USA championship game, costing UH a shot at the school’s first BCS bid. “That was the fluke,” Levine said of the lone loss, “and not the 12 wins leading up to it.” Penn State quarterback Rob Bolden finished 7 of 26 passing for 137 yards, with three interceptions. Houston wanted Bolden, the backup quarterback all season, to air it out as much as possible. “We know they were going to try to run the ball,” Cougars linebacker Marcus McGraw said. “We just wanted to get them in second and long, third and long, and wanted them to pass the ball knowing they had a second-string quarterback.”

HOUSTONFOOTBALL BOWL HISTORY HOUSTON 35, PITTSBURGH 34 Jan. 2, 2015 • Amon G. Carter Stadium • Fort Worth, Texas Houston quarterback Greg Ward had just thrown his third touchdown in a flurried comeback that included two recovered onside kicks in a row to get the Cougars within a point in the Armed Forces Bowl. Interim coach David Gibbs never had a second thought on what to do with less than a minute left in the game. “We decided to go for two at the end because we had the momentum,” Gibbs said. Deontay Greenberry, already with two TD catches in that final 3:41, made a leaping catch in the back of the end zone for the two-point conversion and the Cougars beat Pittsburgh 35-34 on Friday with an improbable comeback the largest in an FBS game this season, and largest ever in a bowl game that didn’t go into overtime. Pitt (6-7) led 31-6 when ACC offensive player of the year James Conner had his second touchdown run with 14 minutes left in the game. The Panthers were still up 34-13 after Chris Blewitt’s 29-yard field goal with 6:14 left before Houston’s big finish. Ward had an 8-yard TD pass to Greenberry before the Cougars recovered their first onside kick. That led to a 29-yard catch by Demarcus Ayers on a fourth-and-13 play with 1:58 left, and Houston tried another onside kick.

While the second one didn’t go 10 yards on the rain-slickened field, the ball was touched by the same Pitt defender who couldn’t handle the first one before Houston running back Kenneth Farrow jumped on it at the Cougars 43. Greenberry started the drive with a 38-yard catch, then on third-and-16 had a 25-yard TD with 59 seconds left. Ward, the former Cougars receiver, had 237 of his 274 yards passing in the fourth quarter and also ran for 92 yards. Farrow ran 22 times for 103 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars, who have split their four appearances in the 12-year history of the Armed Forces Bowl. Conner’s 1-yard TD run a minute into the second quarter capped a 15-play, 92-yard drive, and Pitt led until the final minute of the game. The Cougars had a missed extra point after Farrow’s 2-yard TD in the second quarter when Kyle Bullard slipped while kicking. Voytik threw was 18-of-35 passing for 222 yards and an impressive 16-yard TD catch by tight end J.P. Holtz between two defenders in the front corner of the end zone. But Voytik had six consecutive incompletions on a final desperate drive when only a pass interference penalty got Pitt a first down. Boyd had nine catches for 112 yards, his 11th career 100-yard receiving game and moving from seventh to fourth on Pitt’s career reception mark with 163, two more than Larry Fitzgerald.
