Game Preview

No. 3 Houston will put its 19-game home winning streak on the line when it squares off with No. 10 Iowa State on Monday in a clash between the two teams tied for the top spot in the Big 12 standings.

Home court could be a difference maker for the Cougars (22-3, 9-3 in Big 12), who were listed as a No. 1 seed (and third overall) by the NCAA on Saturday when it released its preliminary rankings of the top 16 teams in advance of the NCAA Tournament. Iowa State (20-5, 9-3) was also listed by the selection committee, garnering a third seed and the 11th overall ranking.

The Cougars head to Monday’s titanic matchup after a dominating 82-61 home win over Texas on Saturday. L.J. Cryer hit six 3-pointers and amassed a game-high 26 points while fellow senior guard Jamal Shead added 16 points, 11 rebounds, six assists and a season-high six steals. Emanuel Sharp added 15 points in the win.
