5 non-Power Five offensive stars to watch

Despite its classification as a non-Power Five program, Houston will garner plenty of national attention this year.

The reigning AAC champion Cougars put together a 13-1 record last year, including a win over No. 9 Florida State in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. With this success came even higher expectations this year, as Houston was awarded the 13th spot in last week’s USA Today preseason coaches poll, making it one of two non-Power Five programs ranked, along with Notre Dame at No. 9.
