Does Houston even stand a chance against FSU?

Houston didn't want to be there.
They overlooked Louisville. :dhd: They played good in their biggest games of the season. I know they dropped that ugly game to UConn but they are still a good team beating the next best 3 teams in the AAC who are all pretty damn good teams.

No idea how the game will turn out. Makes sense that Criminoles are favored, but I'm not counting out my Cougars!

I hear games,early in the year don't count so I'm rolling with that. I'm pretty sure Houston didn't want to be there, overlooked Louisville and or is playing much better now. Oh and Houston has a better resume... sadly that lady one is true. Lol

This looks like a very competitive game to me, nothing I've seen from either team suggests that FSU walks away with this one, or even wins for that matter.

I think Houston will care and prepare a lot more than FSU. This is everything for Houston. FSU was competiting for national championships in their last two bowls. Hard to believe they'll get up for this game, even if it is a New Years 6 game.

Of course Houston has a chance. They are clearly a talented team. But as everyone has stated, this game highly depends on whether FSU players even care about being there. But that's part of it, if FSU doesn't show up and Houston wins, then they deserve the victory.

I really don't see FSU showing up. You were playing for National Titles two years in a row and now you are playing against a non-power 5 team? I just don't see them getting up for this. They may still win, but it will be a close game.

It will depend on if Jimbo can get them up for it too. Considering it's the last game for many of them, and a lot of them are young, they may just show up. These major games mean so much more for teams like Houston. The gap in talent between the two can be overcome by a want to win.

Of course they have a chance. Houston has proven themselves to be a solid team, and, personally, I have questions about how good Florida State really is.

My son was talking about that yesterday. He asked me if I thought Game Day might come to UH opening week if UH beats FSU and OU wins the natty. Told him I didn't know, but it's an interesting thought.

I would say no because they were here last year
