- Cover 3 says Houston's early defensive results, like Texas Tech's, look better in points allowed per play and per drive than in yards allowed per play and per drive. That distinction cautions against treating the scoring results alone as evidence that opponents have struggled to move the ball. - The hosts note Oregon State's passing success against Houston and Texas Tech and suggest its offense, including young receivers, may be better than initially expected.

- Against Oregon State, Houston quarterback Conner Weigman completed 20 of 30 passes for 305 yards, one touchdown and one interception, added 30 rushing yards on nine carries and took one sack.

- KICKER: Miller Malone played 20+ snaps on defense and special teams.

- QB/OL: If the first two games are any indication, there have been less scripted runs for the UH QB.
