After earning his bachelor of arts in 2013 with a major in history from Rice University in Houston, Texas, Emilio Longoria enrolled in the JD program at the University of Texas at Austin in 2014. Most recently employed as a summer associate at Norton Rose Fulbright LLP, Emilio Longoria enjoys watching the Houston Texans football team.The Houston Texans head into the 2016-2017 playoff wild card game with the best performing defense in the league even while only having their best defensive player, J.J. Watt, for merely three games during the regular season. The Texans allowed a league low of 301.3 total yards per game.Particularly stingy in the passing game, the Texans’ defense was second only to the Denver Broncos by permitting 201.6 yards per game. On the ground, they were still solid, but they ranked 12th in rushing yards allowed. However, regarding points per game, 10 other teams held their opponents to fewer points. However, the defense is not always responsible for the other team's points.
