They played a great second half against USC, a great first half against Houston, and only one good half against both Niagra and TCU, (whom they beat nonetheless). One of a coach's job qualifications is optimism, and Schuler is good at that. Rice played a dismal first half in the TCU game, but Schuler stuck to his game plan. It was a wise decision. In the second half, the difference that led to a Rice victory was that the game plan was well- executed much of the half. Schuler is very positive about the future of this Rice team, and his optimism may bear him out. The remainder of this season will be an indicator as to whether Rice can be a real contender in the Southwest Conference in the seasons to come.
