Houston Cougars Set to Battle SMU Mustangs at Moody Coliseum

As the Houston Cougars prepare to face off against the SMU Mustangs at Moody Coliseum, fans are buzzing with anticipation. The Cougars have been on a tear recently, showcasing a level of play that could very well carry them to another victory in their upcoming game.

Looking back at their recent performance on February 9th against the Golden Hurricane, HOU dominated with an impressive 80 points compared to Tulsa's 42. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot 46 percent from the field and an exceptional 83 percent from the free-throw line. With such high efficiency, it's clear that Houston has honed its ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities.

Moreover, HOU's defense cannot be overlooked. In their game against Wichita State Shockers on February 3rd, they held their opponents to just 61 points while racking up eight steals and three blocks themselves. This defensive solidity combined with their offensive firepower makes them a formidable opponent for any team.

The Mustangs will certainly have their work cut out for them. While they will have home-court advantage at Moody Coliseum, it may not be enough to stop the momentum of a Houston team that seems unstoppable when firing on all cylinders.

It is worth noting that in basketball, anything can happen and no win is guaranteed until the final buzzer sounds. However, based on recent performances and statistics alone, it would not be surprising if HOU extends its winning streak after this encounter.

Fans eager to see if Houston can continue its dominant run should mark their calendars for February 17th when these two teams clash in Dallas at Moody Coliseum. Tip-off is scheduled for prime time viewing pleasure and supporters can catch all the action live on ESPN2 channel 209.
