Free Betting Pick: Houston Cougars +3
The Cougars have been playing some great basketball so far this tournament and unlike the Wildcats the offense did not have any let downs in their victories. The Wildcats offense, though, slacked off tremendously in the game against the Terriers and that could easily spell disaster for the Wildcats in this game here as the Cougars bring home a win. Final Score, Houston Cougars win, but grab the points, 71-68.
