    Early Signing Period Review/Recruiting Roundup

    One last pod to put a bow on the 2022 season, because you can't talk college football anywhere (including here on the Roost Pod) without talking a little 'crootin! Matt and Carter are here to break down the class that Rice signed in late December, from high school prospects to junior college players to transfer portal travelers. How much does bringing in JT Daniels raise Rice's ceiling in the AAC in 2023? What positions of need were filled? Where might the Owls look to shore up this class in February or through further portal additions? Plus, the underrated but massive news that for maybe the first time ever, Rice was able to have a few high school signees enroll early. All that and more, and thanks for sticking with us this season!

    Morose in Mobile

    The 2022 Rice Football season comes to an end, in much the same way it existed for most of the way: brief, glorious moments of excitement and optimism, surrounded by inconsistency and frustration. Matt and Carter are back for the season's final Roost Podcast, breaking down the Owls' 38-24 loss to old conference foe Southern Miss in the LendingTree Bowl. Were there are bright spots in a game that featured Rice giving up an all-time bowl record in rushing yards to Frank Gore Jr? Does this change our outlook on 2023 at all?  Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

    The 2022 Roosties (+ Rice is Going Bowling!)

    It's official—Rice is headed to Mobile for the LendingTree Bowl! But before we dive into that, Matt and Carter are back on this week's Roost Pod for the 4th Annual (?!?!?!?!?!) Roosties! Forget traditional postseason superlatives here: we're not talking Team MVP—we're talking MVT (Most Valuable Transfer). And Favorite Plays! And Plays We Maybe Wish Hadn't Happened Like They Did! Those categories (well, along those lines) and more, all in this episode. Don't Forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

    Week 13 Review: Depleted in Denton; Bowl Eligibility(?) and Next Steps

    The Owls dropped a tough one in their regular season finale, playing competitively despite a depleted offense but unable to hang on at the end. It's a story we've heard too many times this year, and Matt and Carter are here to help you swallow the bitter pill of Rice's final C-USA conference game in this episode of the Roost Podcast. Where does the team go from here? Is bowl eligibility at certainty at 5-7 thanks to APR? How does that affect the calculus of whether to retain this coaching staff in the AAC in 2023? These are complicated, confusing questions . . . much like this Rice football season was. Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

    Week 12 Review: Scout Team QB’s Lament

    Two weeks in a row?! Somebody's got it out for Rice Football, and it might be Zeus. Or Thor. The Roost Podcast is back this week, and Matt and Carter are here to (reluctantly) take you through another game that started with a quarterback injury and ended with a blowout. Are there any positives to take from this one? To what dire depths has the quarterback room delved? Is there any remaining hopeful for bowl eligibility (spoiler: yes! though maybe not in the way you're imagining)? Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

    Week 11 Review: QB Chaos in Kentucky

    One shot at bowl eligibility down, two more to go. Matt's flying solo on this week's Roost Podcast, talking about the Owls' frustrating—in more ways than one—loss to the Hilltoppers in Bowling Green. Where does the team go at QB with TJ hurt? Is there any cure for Rice's turnover woes? For the defense's miserable showings against third-and-long?  Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

    Week 10 Review: Miners Mastered

    Well, another not-so-pretty win—but after last week, Matt and Carter aren't taking anything for granted on this week's Roost Podcast. Rice is 5-4 after a thrilling shootout against UTEP. Were any of our concerns eased after the Charlotte loss? How do we feel about TJ McMahon? About the defense? Plus, our deepest, sincerest apologies and condolences to Christian VanSickle.
