Houston vs Arizona State Sun Devils Prediction & Picks - NCAA Men
by Travis Pulver | in NCAA Men Picks
Arizona State will try to stop its losing streak at five games when the Sun Devils host the No. 5 Houston Cougars at the Desert Financial Arena in Tempe, AZ, tonight. Tipoff for this Big 12 matchup is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET. Fans can find coverage for the game on ESPN2.
Houston (21-4, 13-1) brings a four-game winning streak into the game after beating Arizona 62-58 on Valentine’s Day. The Cougars were down 30-25 at the half but then outscored the Wildcats 37-28 in the second half to secure the win. It was another solid performance by the No. 1 defense in the country as Houston held Arizona to 37% shooting from the floor and 21.3% from three-point range, well below Arizona’s season averages. Arizona State (12-13, 3-11) is another case of a team that looked solid in non-conference play, only to crash and burn once conference play began. They got off to a 1-5 start, with the one win coming against Colorado (81-61). Their win over West Virginia showed some promise (65-57), but the Sun Devils went on to lose six of their next seven games. They haven’t won at home since Jan. 4 (81-61 over Colorado).

Our Houston vs Arizona State Sun Devils Prediction
Houston will win this game. It would be an epic upset if the Sun Devils were to pull off a win in this game. However, a 12.5-point spread is a lot for a defensive-minded team to cover, even against a poor team like Arizona State. A total of 135.5 points is low for a college basketball game, but I can see Houston shutting the Sun Devils down in this game while scoring around 70 points themselves.
Our Houston vs. Arizona State Pick: UNDER 135.5
