Houston could be a legitimate playoff contender in 2016

Your life probably is not as good as Tom Herman's right now. Might I suggest a grill? After helping Ohio State win a national title last year, Herman took Houston to new heights in his first season as head coach. The Cougars polished off a 13-1 campaign with a definitive beating of Florida State in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. Houston jumped ahead 21-3 and rode dynamic quarterback Greg Ward Jr. and an opportunistic defense (four interceptions) to an upset win.

Here's the really exciting part. Houston returns most of its core pieces in 2016, including Ward and linebacker Steven Taylor (18.5 tackles for loss). The Cougars should already have the committee's attention, and they have a schedule to keep the spotlight. They open against Oklahoma at NRG Stadium and have a Nov. 19 home date against Louisville, which should be much more of a resume-booster than it was this season. If the American Athletic Conference builds on this season and Houston runs the table, it could sniff the top four.

Former highly regarded Texas A&M quarterback Kyle Allen plans to join the University of Houston football program, a source close to the situation told the Houston Chronicle on Tuesday.

Allen, a five-star recruit in the class of 2014, must sit out the 2016 season and will have two years eligibility remaining.

In early December, Allen was granted his release from the Aggies, who lost another high-profile quarterback, Kyler Murray, a week later.
