Great article, which articulates exactly why this is the biggest game of the Fritz era. Thanks for posting the link.

Excellent!

Bruce Feldman at the Athletic picks Houston for the upset. Gotta say, it feels weird seeing big press say Tulane is gonna have a surprising loss.

Suburbs of Houston are getting some pretty devastating and flooding rains right now. I never wish this on anyone, hope it's not directly affecting any of the UH players' families.

This game is getting a lot of attention relative to other Tulane games. It's actually more talked about than the Cure Bowl was.

Internal pressure is at levels unheard of for this program.

The only relief is that Tulane can easily get to a bowl game win or lose.

south and east parts of Houston are really getting hit...in fact between Houston and Beaumont is a total mess...UH fans who thought of driving over today are going to have a very difficult time

Good thing the game is not there.

This game is more important than the (bs) Cure Bowl. Much more important.

No chance anyone can drive from Houston to N.O. today. I-10 between Houston and Louisiana border completely shut down. Now central Houston and west Houston starting to flood.

The play calling against Auburn was (outside of 2 trick plays) much more vanilla than it was versus FIU. And even more so versus Missou State. And I am 100% with winwave, Justin McM was not even close to being "on" in the Auburn game. It might be his least accurate (and that says a lot) game he's played.

We need to have a varied offense. Heck, even Missou State knew what play we were running most times we handed the ball to Bradwell. I liked the offense we saw in the FIU game, but not the past two weeks.

My thoughts are with the folks in the Houston area. I heard certain areas got 29 inches of rain in 24 hours.

Leaving work now to head uptown. first game i'm going to in yulman since we lost 7-3 against UCONN.
I'd be lying if i said i wasn't a tad excited

Hears another of FearTheWave's visitor lists of potential recruits visiting tonight's game. Check out Adonis Friloux, a Houston commit who's our guest at tonight's game vs. Houston. Does that seem awkward to you?

If we take care of business tonight, there better be a new contract sitting on Willie Fritz's desk in the morning. How bout 5 years at $20 million. If we wait until after the season it will be too late. Worth every dollar.

Reading the posts on the Houston football forum and there was much respect expressed for Willie Fritz. Two posters stated that WF was their first choice to replace Major Applesauce (sic) before the job was given to Holgorsen.

We played three games so far. FIU has not turned out be as strong as we thought and Missouri State was a cakewalk. Perhaps it makes a lot more sense to see how the entire season plays out before anyone starts
this thing about Fritz being gods gift to the coaching profession. Go Wave, Beat Houston.

When that time comes, don’t forget another million or two for the assistant coaches pool.

Hows everyone feeling tonight ? I’m nervous

Nice start

[HoustonWave]

Similar start as Memphis last year.
