What happened

Houston went to Manhattan and left with a 35-16 win, which is not the kind of sentence this fanbase is used to typing. The turning point was the offensive line, the unglamorous five that turned a road trip into a stroll, prompting one fan to marvel that "having a really good offensive line is really fun !!!" Misery dropped from 66 to 11 in a week. At 5-1, somebody in the thread hollered "BAH GAWD, IS THAT HOUSTON'S MUSIC?" Nobody told him to sit down.
