We’re calling on Coogs everywhere to help us create a powerful home-field advantage at NRG Stadium as Houston Football takes on LSU in a marquee postseason matchup at the Kinder’s Texas Bowl.
This has been a special season for Houston Football, and now it’s time to show the country what Cougar Nation looks like on the national stage.
The Houston Cougars’ team bench will be located on the East Sideline, and we encourage fans to purchase seats near Sections 117‑136 as we look to paint NRG Stadium RED with Cougar pride.
