- Analysis
- At 4 pm, our selection is on the Houston Cougars minus the points over East Carolina. After starting the season with a loss to cross-state rival, Texas Tech, the Cougars have ripped off five straight wins, and they've covered four of those games. And the last two both were blowouts on the road, as Houston won by 35 as a 3-point road underdog vs. Tulsa, and then went into New Orleans to trounce Tulane, 40-22, as a 6.5-point favorite. Houston did have last weekend off to prepare for this game, and that bodes well for Houston here, as rested home favorites, with a .666 (or better) record, have covered 64.7% of conference games over the last 42 years off back to back road wins, in which they covered the spread by 10+ points. Lay the points.
