Team Information

The Houston Cougars Football schedule is your roadmap to Big 12 Saturdays in the heart of Houston, Texas—and a chance to see a program with real history and big-game moments. Houston Cougars football represents the University of Houston at the NCAA Division I FBS level and competes in the Big 12 Conference, bringing weekly power-conference matchups to the city. Established in 1946, the Cougars have built an identity around speed, swagger, and a proud red and white tradition that feels right at home in “H-Town” sports culture.

Houston’s achievements span multiple eras and conferences, highlighted by a 1976 national championship recognized by the College Football Researchers Association. That same year, the Cougars captured the Southwest Conference championship (1976), adding to later titles in Conference USA (1996) and the American Athletic Conference (2015). One of the defining modern milestones came in the 2015 season, when Houston won the Cotton Bowl Classic (played January 2016)—a landmark New Year’s Six victory that still stands out as a signature moment for Cougar fans.

The Cougars’ story is also shaped by standout leaders and stars. Legendary head coach Bill Yeoman (1962–1986) helped define the modern identity of Houston football and is closely tied to the program’s “Veer” era and national prominence in the 1970s. More recently, Tom Herman (2015–2016) led the Cougars to the 2015 AAC title and that New Year’s Six bowl win. On the field, Houston’s list of notable players includes Andre Ware—the 1989 Heisman Trophy winner whose No. 11 jersey is retired—along with quarterback greats David Klingler and Case Keenum, defensive standout Ed Oliver, and transfer quarterback C.J. Stroud, who played at Houston after beginning his college career elsewhere.

Game day in Houston is anchored by an on-campus home that keeps the experience close to the student body and loud when it matters. The Cougars play at TDECU Stadium, and the university traditions hit as soon as you arrive—whether you’re hearing the “Cougar Fight Song” or joining in on “Womp Womp” around fellow fans. Rivalries add extra edge to the calendar, including Rice in the long-running Bayou Bucket matchup, plus familiar opponents like SMU, Texas Tech, and Memphis.

With Willie Fritz as the current head coach, Houston continues to navigate the grind of Big 12 competition. In a recent season, 11 Houston players received All-Big 12 honors, with TE Tanner Koziol and WR Amare Thomas named First Team Offense by Big 12 coaches. When you’re scanning the Houston Cougars Football schedule, you’re not just picking a date—you’re picking your moment to be part of what’s next.
