Houston no brainer. Carsen Edwards went for like 43 the other night. Texas Tech has one of the best defenses in the nation. I feel we were very fortunate to get Houston as our 3.
But Houston, easily. Kentucky probably beats Houston 8 out of 10 times.. and several of those wins would be comfortable. You can't guarantee that against Purdue and certainly not against Texas Tech.
I picked Purdue but really I guess Houston might be the logical choice. I think all those 3 seeds are very good teams. Purdue isn’t that great but they have the ability to shoot it and hats scary in the tournament.
Houston plays more like us but the trapping style worries me because the game can either be A. They run us out of the gym or B. The trap is ineffective and we run them out of the gym. At this point in the tournament seeing an easy match up is unlikely but all the three seeds in this tournament are really good teams and not somebody anyone should hope to play. Houston is going to be a really tough opponent imo.
