The Houston Cougars aren’t going to have to travel very far to get to their bowl destination. In fact, for Willie Fritz and the Cougars, they’re not even having to leave their hometown. UH will only have to travel about 15 to 20 minutes (or maybe a little more, pending the time of day and the inevitable traffic and congestion that the Bayou City is known for) to get to the Kinder’s Texas Bowl.
But even though they won’t be going very far to play in a bowl game, it sounds like the number crunching machines behind the ESPN Analytics Matchup Predictor aren’t exactly thinking that the Coogs will have a great shot at getting a win in their bowl game.
