Houston is coming into this game with a 19-2 record this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 5 straight games since losing their first 2 games of the season, but both of those losses were also on the road against quality opponents in Iowa State and TCU. They have won their last 2 games on the road with those wins coming against Texas and BYU, but they are coming off of that road win against Texas in their last game which was a game they struggled in as they only won by 4 points in OT. They have struggled more on the road in the Big 12 this season and now they are going up against a Kansas team that is one of the best in the country. Kansas is 17-4 this season and has won 2 of their last 3 games with their only loss in that span coming on the road against Iowa State by 4 points. They have won 4 of their last 6 games as well and both losses have come on the road. Kansas has been much better at home this season and they have a very strong home advantage, they will get up for this game to send a message to Houston that they still have to get through Kansas if they want to win this conference. Kansas is going to use this game at home as a statement game. Kansas will cover the spread in this game.
