Houston jumped on us early and often, building leads of 14-0 and 28-7, before Willie Porter and the Bluffians fought back to a 35-35 tie early in the 4th quarter. But ultimately UAPB could not keep up with the Cougars, and Nelson had a pass knocked out of his hands to end the Lions hopes with less than a minute to go.
