Baylor doesn't travel well at 2-6 in true road games, plus 4-7 in non-home games. They're ninth in the 16-team Big 12 in points given up, 13th in shooting allowed, and last at defending the 3-pointer (.361). Baylor is on a 6-11-1 spread run. Houston is 11-1 in the Big 12, leads the nation in points allowed (57 per game), and is fourth in field goal shooting allowed (37.5%). They're also No. 1 in the Big 12 in turnover margin (+5.17). Houston has won 23 of 27 home games against Baylor, including the last eight. The Cougars are on a 12-1 SU, 8-5 ATS run, so back home court. Play Houston.
