Here’s how you can watch Saturday afternoon’s UCF vs Houston game from TDECU Stadium online.

The Houston Cougars have had a rough few weeks after starting the season 5-0. In fact, the Cougars have lost two of the past three games to Navy as well as SMU and look to be completely out of the playoff race.

Greg Ward Jr. was a strong Heisman contender for most of the season until the losing stretch. He has still played well, passing for 2,179 yards and 13 touchdowns while also leading the team with 417 yards rushing and six scores.

Targets in the pass game aren’t tough to come by as Linell Bonner, Chance Allen and Steven Dunbar have combined for over 1,500 yards receiving and eight touchdowns this season. That’s a dangerous trio.

There was no hope after UCF finished the last season 0-12, it seemed. The Knights looked to be a a rebuilding program with no light at the end of the tunnel, but they already have four wins in 2016 opposed to three losses.

Freshman quarterback McKenzie Milton has taken over as the team’s starting quarterback as of late. On the year, he’s passed for 960 yards and eight touchdowns with a 61 percent completion rate. He’s clearly the best option.

The run game is averaging nearly 200 yards per game on the ground, led by Dontravious Wilson. He has 371 yards and seven touchdowns on the year while Jawon Hamilton and Adrian Killins are two other backs to keep an eye on.
