Bradford warns of ?clear and present danger? at Yale Street bridge
During pop-off Tuesday, At-Large Position 4 Councilman C.O. “Brad” Bradford warned that TxDOT’s recent decision to lower the load limits on the Yale Street bridge over White Oak Bayou is unenforceable and as such is dangerous to motorists. Last week TxDOT changed the load limit from 8,000 pounds per axle to 3,000 pounds per axle. A citizens’ bulletin issued by the mayor’s office reports that some SUVs and pick-up trucks may exceed that limit. “Most citizens don’t know the weight of their vehicle,” Bradford said. He continued: It imposes a serious safety issue to leave the bridge open with 3,000-pound load limits per axle. Citizens are not going to read Read More

Without starting QB, Rice sputters out of gate in loss to UH
Charles Sims is back for the Houston Cougars.
For at least one week, so is the defense.
Sims rushed for 158 yards and three touchdowns, and the Cougars held the explosive Rice offense in check in a 35-14 victory Saturday afternoon at Reliant Stadium.
The Cougars kept the Bayou Bucket trophy for the second year in a row and third time in the last four in the annual meeting between the cross-town rivals.
Houston (1-3, 1-0 Conference USA) built a 28-0 lead before the Owls added two late touchdown catches by Sam McGuffie.
Sims, who missed the Sept. 15 UCLA game with a hip injury, had touchdown runs of 3, 47 and 16 yards. He also had 47 receiving yards to finish with 205 all-purpose yards.
With two of the worst defenses in the nation on display, the Bayou Bucket seemed destined for a shootout, right?
A week after producing 51 points and nearly 650 yards total offense, the Owls (1-4, 0-2 C-USA) struggled to get into a rhythm without starting quarterback Taylor McHargue. McHargue injured his left (non-throwing) shoulder in last week's double-overtime loss to Marshall.
Redshirt freshman Driphus Jackson never had time to get comfortable in his first career start, as the Cougars regularly busted through the line untouched. UH had five sacks, including two by linebacker Phillip Steward, and countless more hurries.
