Model called it
The model favored HOU to win, and the call landed.
Houston's got this one locked down at 93 percent, and the data backs it up across the board. The Cougars are getting massive respect from Vegas at 21 points, and their defense has been stingy over the last five games, which'll be key against an Oregon State squad that just can't get it done. The betting market likes Houston too, and when you layer in their recent point differential advantage, this looks like a runaway for the ranked Cougars at home.
