Houston vs Illinois Sunday

[Bettor Days]

I am leaning Houston in the first game of the day. Does anyone like the opposite side Illinois plus the points?

I like Houston as well. Looking at ML but its juicy at -170...
I'll probably end up on Houston -3.5.

Illinois is 2-8 ATS in last 10.
Houston is 8-2 ATS in last 10.

Illinois performance against top Big 10 teams (Wisc, Purd, Iowa) is 1-3 ATS since Jan 1st.
I think there is value in Houston -3.5 today.

Houston's only nemesis has been Memphis (the 2nd best team in AAC) and they lost to them twice during in the weeks prior to the Conf tourny but they redeemed themselves and crushed the Tigers by 18 points.

I think Houston is playing very well at the right time. For Illinois, I can't say that's the case. They've been stumbling/bumbling over the last several weeks with only 1 "GOOD" win against Michigan.

BOL gents! Agree that Cougars are the smart play but can't fade Illinois even after last game's disappointment. I'm staying away but rooting for y'all.

Up a nickel to stay the day! Glad to see they covered as well for everyone who layed the points!

Don’t think I’ve watched a team that plays defense and rebounds like Houston in awhile.

That is what I said about Baylor to start the year. Some of the best defense I have ever seen
