Result:
LOSS

The odds-makers have reached a quandary with Utah playing at home. How much is enough to lay and what is too much? They have decided on a number that is simply not enough. Utah is 24-1 SU at home since the first of the year, and their last seven home wins have come by 14 points or more and an average of 22.7 points per game. Houston ran off a 22-game winning streak, but has since become ordinary and rather poor against teams that will be playoff bound, where they stand at 2-5. Those five losses have all been by nine points or more and by an average of 17.6 points per game. Don't know how much of a factor an early season loss at home to Houston will be for Utah, but if it becomes a motivating factor, this one could really get ugly. Like the Jazz who have dominated everyone at home.
