Houston football picked up its first ever win in Big 12 conference play on Thursday night, and it couldn’t have happened in more exciting fashion.
Trailing 39-35 with three seconds left in the game against West Virginia, the Cougars dialed up a Hail Mary from the 49-yard line, which was spectacularly caught in the end zone.
The miraculous touchdown gave Houston a 41-39 victory as time expired and gave the program its first-ever win in the Big 12 following their move to the conference this past summer.
