« In Houston’s 48-23 win over North Texas, the Cougars outscored the Mean Green 28-6 in the second half.« Keenum needs four yards to pass Graham Harrell (Texas Tech) on the NCAA career total offense list and 327 passing yards to jump Ty Detmer (BYU) on the NCAA all-time passing yardage list. He would be third on both lists.« Through three games, Houston is back as the NCAA’s top passing team with 408.0 yards per game. The team also ranks eighth in total offense with 536.0 per contest. Both those numbers are the best in Conference USA.« The Cougars have been to six bowl games in the last eight seasons.« In the season opener, the Cougars started nine new players, including the entire defensive secondary with junior college transfers chevy Bennett at FS, D.J. hayden at CB, Texas A&M transfer colton Valencia at SS and sophomore Zach mcmillian at CB. The defense also had first-time starters at middle linebacker in true-freshman Derrick mathews and junior college transfer noseguard Dominic smith. On the offensive side, there were three new faces on the offensive line in right tackle rowdy harper, and guards Ty cloud and Kevin forsch.

carDiac coogsIn Saturday’s 35-34 win over Louisiana Tech, the Cougars had to overcome a 27-point deficit, the largest in school history. It topped

the previous record of 19 points (down 28-9, 3:46 left in 3rd quarter) vs. Conference USA-rival UTEP in a 42-37 win on Nov. 22, 2008. It was the biggest come-from-behind road win since a 31-30 win against Rice (down 30-14, 6:20 left in 3rd quarter) on Sept. 2, 2006.

The comeback began with 4:27 in the thrid quarter when Case Keenum connected with Patrick Edwards for a 50-yard touchdown in a drive which only took 44 seconds off the clock. UH continued with three touchdowns in the fourth quarter, including a back-of-the-endzone grab by Edwards with 1:36 left to go in the game. The defense held Louisiana Tech to 69 yards in the fourth quarter and forced two turnovers as well as a fourth-down stand.

With Saturday’s win, Keenum has engineered three of the top four biggest comebacks in Houston history:• 27 points down at Louisiana Tech in a 35-34 win (Sept. 17, 2011)• 19 points down vs. UTEP in a 42-37 win (Nov. 22, 2008)• 17 points down vs. UAB in a 45-20 win (Oct. 9, 2008)

siXTh Times The charmSenior quarterback case Keenum learned in January 2011 he had been granted a sixth season of eligibility after suffering a torn

ACL vs. UCLA in the third game of the 2010 season. Keenum returns to captain a UH team which has won 27 games with him at the helm in four years as a starter.

KeenUm chases ncaa recorDsAfter throwing for 5,020 yards as a sophomore in 2008 and 5,671 in 2009, senior quarterback case Keenum has the chance to

become the first quarterback in FBS history to have three seasons with at least 5,000 yards passing. Through three games in 2011, he has passed for 1,137 yards.« Keenum threw for 351 yards against Louisiana Tech and ranks fourth on the NCAA Career Passing Yardage 327 yards shy of passing BYU’s Ty Detmer’s 15,031 yards.« Keenum totaled 341 yards of total offense against Louisiana Tech and raks fourth on the NCAA’s career total offense chart just four yards shy of passing Texas Tech’s Graham Harrell.

KeenUm’s accompLishmenTsAfter leading the nation in total offense in 2008 and 2009, quarterback case Keenum is back at the top with the No. 1 ranking through

three games with 382.7 yards per game. He currently ranks second in passing offense with 373.0 yards per contest.In 2008, he ranked No. 1 with 403.2 yards per game and repeated in the category with 416.4 yards in 2009. He also led the nation in

passing in 2009. Keenum is only the seventh quarterback in FBS history to lead the nation in total offense in consecutive seasons, and the last since Hawaii’s Colt Brennan accomplished the feat in 2005-06. If Keenum matches that success in 2011, he could join Louisiana Tech’s Tim Rattay (1997-99) as the only quarterback to lead the nation in total offense three years in his career. Keenum is the school record holder in passing yards, total offense, passing touchowns, attempts and completions. He also holds Houston’s single-season records for completions, attempts, passing yards and total offense. Keenum finished eighth in the 2009 Heisman trophy voting, and led Houston to a No. 1 ranking in the NCAA in passing offense, total offense and scoring offense in 2009. He passed for 5,671 yards in 2009, the third-highest passing total in NCAA Division I-FBS single-season history and joined Texas Tech’s Graham Harrell as one of only two players to pass for 5,000 yards in two seasons. Keenum has had 28 300-yard passing performances in his career, 13 over 400 yards, and has led Houston to 15 career come-from-

The offense UnDer sUmLinIn three-plus seasons at Houston, Kevin sumlin has created an offense with gaudy numbers ranked among the nation’s best

each season. Its tough to match the numbers posted in 2009 when three phases ranked No. 1 nationally. However, through three games, UH has returned to the top of the rankings in passing offense and ranks eighth in total offense.Year passing (rk) Total (rk) scoring (rk)2011 408.0 (1st) 536.0 (8th) 40.3 (20th) 2010 327.2 (5th) 480.5 (11th) 37.7 (13th)2009 433.7 (1st) 563.4 (1st) 42.2 (1st)2008 401.6 (2nd) 562.8 (2nd) 40.6 (10th) Houston became only the third team in NCAA history to have a 5,000-yard passer and three 1,000-yard receivers when it ac-complished the feat in 2009. The other two teams are Texas Tech (2002) and Tulsa (2007). case Keenum is only the second quarterback in NCAA history to pass for over 5,000 yards in two different seasons (2008, 2009.The other was Texas Tech’s Graham Harrell in 2007 and 2008. In 2008, Keenum passed for over 5,000 yards, running back Bryce Beall rushed for over 1,000 and receiver Tyron carriercaught for over 1,000 yards, marking only the second time in NCAA history. UH became the fourth team in NCAA history to have three 1,000-yard receivers when Tyron carrier, James cleveland and patrick edwards each eclipsed the mark —the other teams were Texas Tech 2002, Hawaii in 2007 and Tulsa in 2007.

goin’ sTreaKingSenior receivers Tyron carrier and patrick edwards have caught a pass in every game of their college careers.

eDWarDs DefYing The oDDsHouston receiver patrick edwards knows the word adversity. He came to UH as a walk-on and earned a scholarship from head

coach Kevin Sumlin in 2008. That same year, he suffered a devastating broken leg in a game against Marshall. However in 2010, Edwards led the team with 70 receptions for 1,100 yards.

Edwards topped the 2,000-career receiving yard mark, becoming one of only nine Cougar receivers to hit that milestone. If he puts together another 1,000-yard season, he could become the school’s all-time receiving yards record holder.

Last season, he also ranked ninth nationally and second in the conference in punt returns with a 15.4 per return average. Against Memphis, he took one 74 yards for a touchdown, the first of his career.

Fourth Year • Purdue ‘88In just three-plus years, Houston head football coach Kevin Sumlin has led the

Cougars to a pair of bowl appearances, a 2009 Conference USA West Division title, a top-15 national ranking and one of the most potent offenses in the NCAA. Sumlin, in his fourth season, is poised to lead the Cougars to the national spotlight in 2011.

A finalist for the 2009 Paul “Bear” Bryant National Coach of the Year Award, Sumlin has guided Houston to a 26-16 record in his three-plus seasons.

The 2011 season got off to a great start with a 38-34 win over UCLA, marking Sumlin’s fourth win over BCS opponents.

The 2010 season was marred with key injuries, including two at the quarterback position. Both fifth-year senior Case Keenum, a preseason Heisman favorite, and back-up Cotton Turner went down in the third game of the season. Despite throwing a true-freshman signal caller into the mix, David Piland helped lead UH to its third-straight top-10 national ranking in passing offense. The total offense (480.5 ypg) and scoring offense (37.6 ppg) also ranked in the national top 15 at No. 11 and 14, respectively. Eight Cougars earned All-Conference USA accolades, with running back Bryce Beall, receiver Patrick Edwards and offensive guard Chris Thompson making first team. Edwards also earned honorable mention All-America honors from SI.com.

In three years under Sumlin, the high-powered Cougar offense has topped 40 points in 22 of 39 games (56.4 percent), reached 50 points on nine occasions and registered at least 70 points in a game two times.

In 2009, Houston finished with a 10-4 overall record while winning the West Division with a 6-2 league mark, and along the way, earned a berth in a fifth-straight bowl game. En route to the 10-4 record, UH knocked off Texas Tech, No. 5/6 Oklahoma State and Mississippi State and were 4-0 in non-conference action. Statistically, the University of Houston led the nation in passing offense (433.71 ypg), total offense (563.36 ypg) and scoring offense (42.21 ppg).

Sumlin guided Keenum to 2009 Conference USA MVP honors, and Keenum not only led the nation in total offense for the second straight season, but he also finished eighth in the Heisman Trophy voting. In addition, wide receiver James Cleveland was named the C-USA Newcomer of the Year, while running back Charles Sims was named the Freshman of the Year. Sumlin earned his first C-USA Coach of the Year award. Among the individual award winners, 15 Cougars were also named to either the C-USA First or Second Teams.

Houston also became just the third team to post a 5,000-yard passer (Keenum) and three 1,000-yard receivers (Cleveland, Tyron Carrier and Patrick Edwards) in one season, and the 1,000-yard receiving trio marked just the fourth time the feat had been accomplished in NCAA history.

Taking over the reins of the program in December 2007, Sumlin guided the Cougars to their fourth-straight bowl appearance in 2008 and became the first UH coach in 28 years to lead his team to a bowl victory, as Houston topped Air Force 34-28 in the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl.

However, a bowl victory was not the only highlight of Sumlin’s first season as head coach. In week five of the season, the Cougars knocked off No. 23 East Carolina, 41-24, posting Houston’s first road win over a ranked opponent in 24 years. Coupled with the team’s 70-30 victory over No. 24 Tulsa in November, it marked the first time since 1984 that Houston defeated two ranked teams in the same season.

Additionally, Sumlin guided the Cougars to a perfect 5-0 mark at home and a 6-2 finish in C-USA action. He was one of only 10 first-year Football Bowl Subdivision coaches to guide his team to a bowl game and one of only six to win the bowl contest. And with their eight victories, Sumlin recorded the most wins by a first-year head coach in UH history.

Statistically, it was an outstanding inaugural season for Sumlin as well, as the Cougars established 22 season and career records in 2008. The Houston offense ranked No. 2 nationally in both total offense (562.8 ypg) and passing yards (401.6 ypg), No. 4 in first downs (355), and No. 10 in both scoring (40.6 ppg) and 3rd down percentage (51.0).

Keenum finished the year as the nation’s leader in total offense (403.2 ypg) and No. 2 in passing yards per game (386.2 ypg), while senior defensive end Phillip Hunt finished No. 2 nationally in sacks per game (1.08 spg).

Under Sumlin’s guidance, Keenum was named the Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year, Hunt was named the Defensive Player of the Year and freshman running back Bryce Beall was named the C-USA Freshman of the Year. Overall, the Cougars garnered more than 60 individual honors following the 2008 season.

Sumlin came to Houston after seven seasons as an assistant coach and offensive coordinator in the Big 12. When introduced to lead the Cougars in December of 2007, Sumlin became the 12th head coach in UH history and the first African-American to

lead the prestigious Cougar program.With a reputation for engineering high-powered offenses and considered one of the country’s

top recruiters, Sumlin brought with him a wealth of collegiate coaching experience and a penchant for innovative ideas and styles.

Sumlin spent the previous five seasons at the University of Oklahoma, where he served as both the co-offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach (2006-07) and special teams coordinator/tight ends coach (2003-05).

In 2007, the OU receivers recorded 19 touchdowns while Malcolm Kelly and Juaquin Iglesias provided one of the best 1-2 receiving punches in the nation, ranking fifth and sixth in the OU record book for receiving yards in a season.

Offensively, the Sooners finished fifth in the nation in scoring offense at 42.3 points per game, while ranking 19th nationally in total offense averaging 448.9 yards per game.

The 2006 season saw OU’s receivers catch 17 touchdown passes while Kelly reached 1,000 career-receiving yards faster than any player in school history. The Sooner offense ranked 19th nationally in scoring offense at 30.3 points per game. Prior to becoming co-offensive coordinator, Sumlin served as the Sooners’ special teams coordinator.

In 2005, the Sooners ranked fourth nationally in kickoff return defense, a year after finishing sixth in that category. Sophomore punter Cody Freeby ranked 27th nationally with a 42.3 yard average, while OU ranked 10th in the country in net punting, averaging 37.8 yards per kick.

Before his arrival in Norman, Sumlin spent two seasons at Texas A&M, where he served as the assistant head coach, offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach.

Three games into the 2002 campaign, Sumlin was thrust into the offensive coordinator role, and the Aggies averaged 33.0 points per game after posting just 16.0 ppg before he took control. Working in his new position, the Aggies knocked off No. 1 Oklahoma, while the offense averaged 419 yards per game after netting an average of 286 yards in the season’s first three contests.

Sumlin also has made stops at his alma mater, Purdue (1998-2001), Minnesota (1993-97) and Wyoming (1991-92).

Purdue’s 1998 receivers set school records with 377 receptions for 4,208 yards and 43 touchdowns. The Boilermakers’ Chris Daniels set a Big Ten record with 121 catches and recorded another Big Ten record with 21 receptions in one game.

Sumlin began his career as a graduate assistant at Washington State for Mike Price (1989-90). He also has been an assistant coach under Bob Stoops (Oklahoma), R.C. Slocum (Texas A&M), Joe Tiller (Purdue and Wyoming), Jim Wacker (Minnesota) and Glen Mason (Minnesota).

Sumlin has coached in 11 bowl games, including all four BCS games. Five came during his time at Oklahoma (2008 Fiesta, 2007 Fiesta, 2005 Holiday, 2005 Orange, 2004 Sugar), one at Texas A&M (2002 GalleryFurniture.com) and three with Purdue (2002 Rose, 2000 Outback, 1998 Alamo). He also is the only coach in Houston history to lead his team to back-to-back bowl appearances during his first two seasons.

A four-year letterman as a linebacker at Purdue (1983-86), Sumlin still ranks among the top 10 in career tackles for the Boilermakers. He was named to Sports Illustrated’s All-America walk-on list as a freshman after leading Purdue with 91 tackles.

He was named Honorable Mention All-Big Ten in 1984 and helped the team reach the Peach Bowl. Sumlin also earned Honorable Mention All-Big Ten honors as a senior, ranking No. 5 in the league with 114 tackles.

The Indianapolis native graduated from Purdue in 1988 with a bachelor’s degree in both criminology and criminal justice. Sumlin and his wife Charlene have four children: daughters Courtney and Shelby, and sons Jackson and Joey.
