Houston is undefeated in eight games and LSU will be playing its first true road game and the Cougars are in revenge after losing 80-77 at LSU last year. Houston comes off a big road win at Oklahoma State with Armoni Brooks scoring 23 points with eight rebounds. Corey Davis Jr. added 14 points for the Cougars, who held the Cowboys to a .351 shooting percentage. Houston is holding opponents to 37.8 percent shooting on the season while hitting 49.7 of its shots on offense. LSU has played a relatively weak schedule and has losses to Florida State and Oklahoma State - the team Houston just defeated. Houston is 15-5-2 ATS its last 22 games overall while the Tigers are 1-7-3 ATS over their last 11 road games and 2-5-1 ATS their last eight overall. Everything points to a victory for the Cougars and play Houston on the moneyline.

Pro Picks
Houston at LSU
This is a revenge game for LSU, which lost in overtime to Houston last season. The Tigers are 4-2 so far this season even though it was expected to be sort of a rebuilding year with Ben Simmons off to the NBA. LSU still has Antonio Blakeney at guard and he and Skylar Mays scored 14 points apiece in an 85-74 loss to favored Virginia Commonwealth on Friday. The Tigers defeated Old Dominion the previous night in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in the Bahamas and have previous wins over Southern Miss and North Florida. Houston is 5-0 but this will be its first true road game and toughest test of the season thus far. The Cougars are led by Rob Gray Jr., who averages 18.8 points per game and Devin Davis, who pulls down nine rebounds per contest. The Tigers are getting points at home but there is great value in an outright win. Play LSU on the moneyline.
