Houston enters the September 5 season opener at TDECU Stadium as a clear favorite after a 10-3 campaign in 2025 under third-year coach Willie Fritz, returning experienced quarterback Conner Weigman and a deep receiving group that includes Oregon State transfer Trent Walker. Oregon State faces a full rebuild under new head coach JaMarcus Shephard, with 35 roster departures and heavy reliance on portal additions plus senior quarterback Maalik Murphy. The Beavers' secondary vulnerabilities and limited depth could be exploited by Houston's passing attack, while the Cougars benefit from home-field continuity and momentum from last year's 27-24 overtime win. Roster turnover and inexperience remain the primary headwinds for Oregon State in this non-conference matchup.
