Saturday’s homecoming game against South Florida takes on a different meaning as the University of Houston returns to TDECU Stadium for the first time in nearly a month.
A path to the league championship game remains, but the Cougars will likely need to win their final five games and get some help. Only one game remains against a team with a winning record. Four of the final five games – USF, SMU, Temple and Tulsa - are against teams with a combined 9-19 record. USF is currently on a five-game losing streak, which includes narrow road losses to No. 18 Florida and No. 24 Cincinnati .
UH has won six straight meetings in the series, the third-longest active winning streak against an opponent behind only seven straight wins over Detroit Mercy and Rice.UH senior quarterback Clayton Tune is coming off his best game of the season, throwing five touchdowns against Navy. In fact, Tune has been named the AAC’s offensive player of the week after both of UH’s recent wins, a current streak that has seen him complete 65.
