In this episode of Saturday vs Sunday, we break down Houston’s statement win over Colorado—a game that looked less like an upset and more like the Cougars announcing themselves as serious Big 12 contenders. The story starts with quarterback Conner Weigman. He didn’t just manage the game—he took it over. Weigman threw efficiently for 222 yards, but it was his legs that broke Colorado’s back. Seventeen carries, 83 rushing yards, two touchdowns, and a highlight 49-yard scamper made him the clear offensive difference-maker. In total, Weigman accounted for over 300 yards of offense and looked every bit the player Texas A&M once hoped he’d be.But the Cougars weren’t just about offense. On defense, Carlos Allen absolutely stole the show. His disruptive presence at defensive tackle had us flashing back to Ed Oliver’s Houston days. Seven tackles and relentless control of the line made Colorado’s offense completely one-dimensional. Whenever Allen was in the game, the Buffs had nowhere to run. The Cougar defense finished with seven tackles for loss and three sacks, playing with the kind of havoc style that wins championships.Meanwhile, Colorado is still searching for an identity. Rotating quarterbacks, struggling to establish consistency, and failing to stop the run, the Buffs look like a team that may be lucky to reach bowl eligibility. In contrast, Houston looked like the more complete, better-coached team in every phase.We walked away believing Houston has the makings of a Big 12 title threat. Cougar fans, this might be your house after all.
