All right Card fans. We got Houston in the Peach. You guys played Houston. How do we match up? First off, I've seen them play and they are a good team. I am excited to see us play them.
Houston?

I see Houston as a slightly worse version of Clemson in terms of their style of play. Is that a fair comparison?
They are a good football team and a legit Top 20 opponent...Still feel FSU should win but they are no Northerm Illinois like you faced in the Orange Bowl.
Greg Ward is not the passer that Watson is but he has more speed.

If you avoid boneheaded plays you should win. But then again, we should have won too
They had really good speed on defense, and did a great job of containing the edges against us. That would take away your best weapon, although Cook is hard to contain for anybody. Good luck.
Very underrated football team. Should be ranked in the top 10. Quick everywhere, especially at linebacker. Great secondary, too. The matchup of your defense and their offense might be as good of a matchup as any game played this bowl season. Two outstanding units squaring off.
If you let them convert a high percentage of third downs, they will run 80+ plays on offense and wear you out in the fourth quarter. Jimbo had better plan on playing three strings of defensive linemen against the Coogs.

I thought Greg Ward Jr was the best QB we faced this year. He is perfect for that offense (kind of like LeFors under Petrino).
After beating us (with a 90 yard KO return (thanks to our poor tackling) I have been happy for their success. The 'Noles OL and DL will be the deciding factor by the 4th quarter.
