What happened

Houston won 42-28 at Georgia Southern and moved to 3-1, which should have been a pleasant Saturday in south Georgia. Instead the message boards spent the night litigating a third-down call, with one fan insisting the Cougars "clearly did and on 3rd down" before getting "fucked by ref incompetence." The turning point was less a play than a realization: the defense gave up 28 to a team it should have smothered, and "no one here is proud of what's happening on that side of the ball." Misery dipped to 62. Winning quietly is still a skill they have not learned.
