I have respect for the Wisconsin Badgers basketball program, and their defense has been on point through four games. However, this line is crazy disrespectful to the Houston Cougars. Houston has looked excellent through four contests, it’s a well coached team, and it gives up nothing easy on defense. Give me the points, but Houston could easily win outright.
