Rice Football 2024: SHSU Game Week Practice Report

August 29, 2024 By Matthew Bartlett

Rice football opens the season against Sam Houston State, their first home opener in six years. Here’s what we learned from the Owls at practice this week.

After practicing against guys wearing the same colored jersey for weeks, everyone around South Main is ready for Rice football to kick off its season this coming Saturday against Sam Houston. That includes some somewhat unexpected starters, a few key transfer pieces nursing injuries and a few new tech toys for head coach Mike Bloomgren and his program to incorporate into their new reality.
