Houston is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against a team with a losing record and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Wednesday games while the over is 4-1-1 in their last 6 home games.
Pick
I’m backing the under here. This spread is way too thick to mess with even if I could see Houston winning this one by 30. I just don’t know if I trust Tulsa’s offense to do enough to help push this game towards the over and Houston may just go through the motions and just get in and get out with a win. I’ll back the under in this game.
