Houston ran for a school game-record 178 yards and a touchdown on just 18 carries, an average of 9.9 yards per attempt, while finishing with a career-best 185 all-purpose yards to help the Jaguars earn a 27-13 victory over Troy. The senior picked up 139 of those yards after the Trojans had closed to within four points, 10-6, early in the third quarter, including a 41-yard scoring run — his first of the season — that extended the USA lead to 24-6 late in the period. It was the first time that Hou-ston has run for 100 yards since gaining 117 at North Carolina State on Sept. 17, 2011, while it was the seventh time in his career that he has surpassed the 100-yard mark.
