January 6, 2026
img9:00 PM Eastern

Texas Tech lost its only true road game, at Illinois (81-77). The offense shoots just 69.3% from the charity stripe. The Red Raiders are on a 15-16 straight-up run on the road. No. 7 Houston is anchored by a defense that is 23rd in opponent shooting (39.1%) and No. 2 in points allowed (60 per game). The Cougars are almost unbeatable at home, 7-0 this season, having won 45 of their last 46 inside the Fertitta Center. Play Houston on the moneyline.
