Duke vs. Houston

Duke held a team meeting after its disappointing showing in the ACC Tournament and the Blue Devils have been unstoppable since as they annihilated their first two opponents in the NCAA Tournament. They routed Vermont 64-47 and then destroyed a good James Madison squad 93-55 on Sunday. Jared McCain scored 30 points and hit eight 3-pointers and Duke shot 52.4 percent and held the Dukes to 38.0 percent and snapped their 14-game win streak. Duke has gone UNDER 10 of its past 13 games and it is 21-13 UNDER on the season. The Blue Devils are 11-5 UNDER in the first half and Houston is 5-2 UNDER in the first half its past seven games. The Cougars are not known for their offense, but they hung 100 points on Texas A&M to win it in overtime. Don't expect that to happen in consecutive games as Houston averages only 26.7 made field goals per game and it is No. 1 in the country allowing just 57.7 points. Houston illustrated its vulnerabilities when it lost 69-41 to Iowa State while shooting 27 percent in the Big 12 Tournament. Take Duke and the first-half UNDER.
