The Roost Podcast | Ep 100 – WKU review and coaching thoughts

November 15, 2021 By Matthew Bartlett

Rice football fell to WKU, halting bowl aspirations. We discuss the game and share a few big-picture thoughts on head coach Mike Bloomgren’s tenure.

Matthew and Carter are back this week to break down another Rice football loss, although one seemingly less crushing than the previous overtime defeats. They discuss what to make of the Owls’ performance against Western Kentucky and the outlook for the rest of the season and beyond both for the program and its head coach. The program has improved from where it was almost four years ago. Can Bloomgren keep the trajectory pointed upward?

You can find previous episodes on the podcast page. For now, give a listen to Episode 100.
