Fall camp is here! We'll check in our how things are shaping up for Rice Football soon, but for now, our old friend Eric Henry of Underdog Dynasty drops by to talk all things C-USA as usual. After a Media Days recap, we're playing a game of Make Your Case, where Eric and Matt have to take sides on a statement and Carter gets to play judge. Will UTSA repeat as conference champs? Does Louisiana Tech make a bowl? Mean Green to the championship game? Some of these are easier to argue for than others . . . .

The Opponent Previews for 2022 march on, as Kevin Fielder of Owls247 joins Matt and Carter on this week's Roost Podcast to talk upcoming Rice football opponent/current and future conference mate, FAU. We finally found a C-USA team that already knows who their QB is gonna be! What's the feeling on coach Willie Taggart right now? Which units on offense and defense are settled, and which ones are in flux? Plus, looking forward to when Rice, FAU, and Temple are all in the AAC and can finally decide which is the superior Owl-mascot school (it's Rice). All that and more!

It's the middle of summer, so presumably all of our Opponent Previews for Rice Football in 2022 here on the Roost Podcast will just be look-aheads with no breaking news—oh! Sorry, we've just gotten word that the best head coach in the conference has retired out of the blue.
So UAB beat writer and friend of the pod Evan Dudley joins Matt and Carter this week to preview the Blazers. How will Bill Clark's sudden medical retirement affect the team this year and going forward into the AAC? Will the defense be as ferocious as ever? Does ANYONE in the conference have the QB position settled yet? All that and more!

Is it really time for the opponent previews already?? Even though we're in the June doldrums of college football, the season fast approaches. Carter was out this week, but Matt welcomes Matthew Brune of 247 and Dave Campbell back to the show to preview the North Texas Mean Green for this week's Roost Podcast. Is it the same old song and dance for Seth Littrell's squad? Do they finally have a quarterback in the post-Mason Fine era (not that we Rice fans would know anything about struggling to find a quarterback)? Answers to those questions and more!

With only one more season to go with the sinking ship of C-USA, what do Rice fans have to look forward to in the American Athletic Conference? On this week's Roost Podcast, Matt and Carter are joined by Kelly Comarda from Fear the Wave, himself a former Tulane baseball player, to talk all things AAC. How are the rivalries? Who's stepping into the void left by Cincinnati/UH/UCF? Is this going Back to the Future by recreating late-aughts Conference USA? All that and more!

With Carter out for the week, Matt's flying solo on this week's Roost Podcast—or would be, without the help of our buddy Mike Craven from Dave Campbell's Texas Football! He and Matt talk about putting preview magazines together, the process of covering more than a dozen teams at once, the outlook for the G5 teams in Texas, and and more!
