SAN MARCOS, Texas -- Had Houstons season gone as planned, DEriq King would have spent Saturday night standing on the sideline as the Cougars third-string quarterback.Instead, King caught a touchdown pass, threw for a TD and returned a kickoff for another score and No. 6 Houston cruised to a 64-3 victory over Texas State to remain undefeated.King is the first Houston player ever to pass, run and return a kickoff for a touchdown in the same game.
