We finally close out the 2025 Rice Football season with our annual awards show, The Roosties, highlighting the highs and lows from an eventful year on South Main.
While the website will track the more traditional postseason superlatives, our final episode of The Roost Podcast every season means it’s time to issue The Roosties, our spin on postseason awards. Fom the best to the most regrettable, we touch on it all.
We talked through it all. You can find previous episodes on the podcast page. For now, give a listen to Episode 224.
