UH helmet stickers: Cougars' top performers in Week 2 win over Southern

In Houston's 77-6 victory over Southern, freshman running back John Hebert showcased his multi-dimensional skills. He contributed both rushing and receiving touchdowns, scoring on a 7-yard run and a 20-yard catch. Hebert also displayed his defensive prowess by making a significant tackle on kickoff coverage.

The Cougars' kicker, Jonathan Dimas, had an impressive performance, successfully making 11 extra points, which is the third-highest total in school history.

Defensive back Jordan Allen made history with his first career interception, ending a long drought spanning over 1,000 snaps.

Quarterback Keisean Henderson was efficient in the game, leading the team on four touchdown drives over the course of 16 snaps. He completed two touchdown passes and recovered a fumbled snap for a 54-yard touchdown.

Wide receiver Koby Young, who had a couple of uncharacteristic drops in the opener, proved his speed and sure hands in this victory. He was targeted just three times but managed to score two touchdowns, including a 42-yard reception from Conner Weigman. Young adds another dynamic threat to the Cougars' offensive lineup alongside Amare Thomas and Trent Walker.
