The Roost Podcast | Ep 86 – Houston Football with Sam & Dustin

August 13, 2021 By Matthew Bartlett

We’re only a few weeks away from Houston football and Rice meeting on the gridiron once more. Sam and Dustin from the Scott & Holman Pawdcast fill us in on the Owls’ crosstown rivals.

The Bayou Bucket wasn’t played in 2020, adding intrigue and importance to the upcoming matchup between Houston football and Rice. Both programs believe themselves to be on the upswing and will enter the game fresh off challenging nonconference games the week prior.

What should we make of the Cougars’ contingent and how do their faithful feel about the team? We sat down with Sam and Dustin from the Scott and Holman Pawdcast this week to look ahead at Houston’s 2021 season.

Be sure to stick around for the Lightning Round and as always, you can find previous episodes on the podcast page. For now, give a listen to Episode 86.
