The Cougars potentially could be looking ahead to Notre Dame next week, but it seems Kalani Sitake normally has his players focused on the task at hand and he loves blowing out the competition whenever possible. The play: BYU-24 (1 unit) Friday, Sept 30 th  Tulane @ Houston (-2.5) 7:00 PM Tulane scratches its head after losing at home to Southern Miss after winning on the road at Kansas State. Likely, the Green Wave were caught looking ahead to this game. Houston beat a tough Rice team at home
