Houston finished the season with a surprising 37-30 loss against Tulsa and a 7-5 record. The Independence Bowl will be a special date considering it’sthe last game for the Cougars as members of the American Athletic Conference. Next year, they’ll be moving to the Big 12 Conference. Houston have lost four of the last five bowls they’ve played.

Louisiana seemed out of the bowl picture when they fell 49-14 against a contender such as Florida State with just one game remaining. However, the Ragin’ Cajuns bounced back with a 41-12 win over Texas State to clinch their ticket. This bowl berth is a success for head coach Michael Desormeaux in his first season.
