One week into the Austin Armstrong experience and Houston has the highest rated defense in PFF. Complete domination of Stephen F. Austin. Connor Weigman shook the rust off, 3 TDs, 0 turnovers for the offense as whole. Yes, Rice won their opener, but they gained 251 total yards. Almost zero explosiveness, their starter had a QBR of 4.6 out of 100. It was a win that Abell teams are built to sneak out, but Walker Howard had a non-contact injury late on a would-be game winning drive. He went out with a hip or oblique injury, and that sunk them.
