Respect your opponent but do not fear him.
Fear your lack of proper preparation, apathy, and underestimated opponent skills and motivation.

Yea but aren’t most of those Rice wins just in the last few years?
Is Rice stout up the middle on D? If we can have just be respectable running the ball.
Definitely not in the last 7 meetings.

Will there still be complaints from fans if UH runs a plain Jane offense but still wins against Rice?

They don’t beat us often, but when they do, it hurts.
