Head Coach Kevin Sumlin was pretty much all smiles at the last press conference the Houston Cougars held. He spoke very highly about the team and their ability to show off some of their stuff in recent wins as well as the anticipation of taking on Southern Miss this coming weekend. There's some history there with wins and losses that defied some logic but all of that is behind the Cougars now as they look forward to what lies ahead. The Cougars started the season out quite well with a win in their opening game against Northwestern State 55-7. Oklahoma State met the same fate and was defeated by the Cougars 45-35 and a third game in a row, the Cougars beat Texas Tech at home 29-28.
With just one loss on the books, which was a close game against UTEP who defeated the Cougars 58-41, the Cougars resumed their winning streak by beating Mississippi State 31-24, Tulane 44-16 and SMU 38-15. Fans are anxiously awaiting the rest of the 2009 season to witness games being played as only the Cougars can. The Southern Miss game on October 31 may be the most anticipated game of the year. Next the Cougars will take on Tulsa on November 7 followed by UCF on November 14, Memphis on November 21, Rice on November 28 and Conference USA Championship on December 5.
The cumulative statistics for the Cougars are looking great so far this season. The team has been scoring an average of 40.4 points per game as contrasted to opponents at 26.1. The Cougars are trailing opponents with rushing attempts at 221-282 but total passing yardage for the Cougars is 2822 with opponents at just 1553. With the proper focus in areas that need improvement, the Cougars can take to the field with more confidence in every game.
Robertson Stadium borders Cullen Boulevard on the east, Wheeler Street on the south, Scott Street on the west and Holman Street on the north. This fantastic stadium has been attracting crowds for home games of the Cougars for years and there is no disparity in fan appreciation to date. If it's your first time to Robertson Stadium, make sure you take note of special gate designations. Gate 2 is for UH player guests, Gate 3 is for high school coaches recruits, Gate 9 is for UH will call, Gate 10 is for UH students and Gate 12 is for visiting team player guests.
There are 14 gates total providing easy access to Robertson Stadium without delay. So whether you wish to be seated for upcoming games in the Westside suites or Eastside suites or to saddle up next to Cougar Pride seating, there are many different options to choose from. Those who choose reserved seating can take advantage of various locations around the stadium, including right near the video scoreboard. If you want to be near the action of cheering students, make sure to elect to be near sections 217, 218, 219 on the suite level or sections 114, 115, 117, 118 and 119 nearby.
An auxiliary scoreboard is on the Holman Street side for those who want the reserved seating options in sections 127 through 133. Sections 227 through 234 are general admission seats and serve as an excellent location to catch some great sites of the Cougars in motion. Eastside boxes and Westside boxes offer reprieve from the Texas heat and amenities not available with general admission seating. All in all, the only way you'll miss out on getting the seats of choice is if you put it off until the last minute.
