Early UH Football

Title
Early UH Football
Description
The University of Houston joined the Lone Star Conference, its first official intercollegiate sport conference. A crowd of 11,000 arrived at HISD’s Public School Stadium (later renamed Jeppesen Stadium) on September 21, 1946, for UH’s first football game. The Cougars lost 13-7 to Southwestern Louisiana Institute, but the loss by no means dampened the fans’ Cougar spirit.
