Stetson Scoring Some Points
Stetson gets major props for adding this game to their NCAAB schedule because they are clearly overmatched in this game. The Stetson Hatters stats through two games actually look pretty good, but they are now playing one of the best teams in the country.
Stetson comes into this game scoring 82 points per game, but they racked up that total in a non-competitive first matchup. The Hatters are also allowing nearly 63 points per game, and it’s the defense that could let them down on Monday night.
Jalen Blackmon is averaging 19.5 points per game this season for the Hatters, and he will try to keep them in the college basketball standings all year long. Getting good shots will be a challenge in this game, and Stetson must shoot the ball extremely well.
Cougars Clamping Down on Defense
The Cougars have been one of the best NCAA basketball teams over the last few years, and they appear to be loaded yet again. Houston just continues to lock down opponents on defense, and that will be the plan in this game.
The Houston Cougars are allowing just 40.5 points per game this season, and that’s easily the best defensive scoring average in the country. Houston is now in the Big 12 this season, but the Houston Cougars standings should have them near the top of the league.
Emanuel Sharp leads with 15.5 points per game, but there are a ton of great guards on this roster. If Houston is making shots then they are nearly impossible to beat.
This Houston team is loaded with talent, and they won’t be messing around in this game on Monday night.
Stetson Hatters vs. Houston Cougars Betting Picks
This is not going to be one of the most competitive NCAA basketball games today as the home team should have little trouble in this one. Houston has some solid odds to win March Madness for a reason, and they are a team that never seems to let off of the gas.
Stetson still has some solid college basketball players, but they just don’t have enough talent to really even compete in this game. Houston will score enough points to push the point total to over in this game, but that’s really the only way it gets to that point.
- Pick 1: Over 136.5
- Pick 2: Houston Cougars -25.5
