Rice Football: The Good, The Bad and the Midseason Numbers

October 24, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

At roughly the midpoint of the season, Rice football has felt like a mixed bag of some good and some bad. The numbers reflect that uncertainty.

The first Rice football bye week of the season doesn’t exactly bifurcate the season into two equal parts, but it does serve as a natural delineation between halves of the season. The staff had time to sit down during the week and make some adjustments, hopefully leading to improved performance across the board over the next five games.

What specific areas could they be targeting to improve? And what is this team already doing well? Here’s a quick look at what the numbers suggest.
