Article By: Yragha

JONESBORO, AR They heard it all week, heck the Houston Cougars had read the articles, heard the whispers, even glanced at their own newspaper clippings. Their initial response being, is a newspaper still a thing? "You can't stop speed, your in a rebuilding year and this mash unit from the portal will take some time to come together, learn each others tendencies and work as one." For at least the season opener, QB Donovan Smith and Company said, TO HECK WITH THAT!

Down by two touchdowns, midway thru the 2nd quarter at 28-14, the Cougars found high gear helped in part to Arkansas St. propensity for giving the ball back however the run & shoot might have played a small part in rambling off the next, count 'em 42 consecutive in route to a 56-28 victory on the road.

OTOH, the field goal kicker, let's just say he'll be running laps this week.

Parker Jenkins #5 takes this reception to the house to make it 21-14

The Wolves' defense had some nice plays, but could not to stop the high flying Cougars attack.
