November 26, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

Rice Football has a bowl game on the line against South Florida and is doing all they can to squeeze one more win from this schedule. Here’s the latest from the field.

The offense took a step forward against North Texas, but there’s a long way to go to keep up with the elite teams in the American Conference. South Florida should pose a similar challenge and the Owls have been tirelessly working on the practice field this week to turn in a more successful result.

It’s been a week of rest and strategizing for Rice football as they prepare to kick off the second half of their season against UConn. Here’s news from the practice field.

A week and a half removed from losing three quarterbacks in a game and suffering a third straight defeat, Rice football looks refreshed and restored heading into its Week 7 game against UConn. It’s not all positive news on the health front, but the program is certainly looking in much better shape than it did two weeks ago.

This week’s update will hit on those key injuries, particularly at quarterback, as well as what wrinkles the program has been able to implement in the bye week and a few other risers and fallers in the off week.

2025 Rice Football Season Preview: Cornerback

July 7, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

Next up in our 2025 Rice Football Season Preview: cornerback. Here’s our breakdown of the Owls’ plans for the group this season.

Fortunately, the Transfer Portal has allowed for some veteran leadership to be injected into this position group during the offseason, but that hasn’t removed all the question marks in the crucial defensive spot. How well will this new-look room adjust to so many moving parts?
