The Houston Cougars are 4-1 SU and 3-2 ATS on the season. They defeated SMU 35-22 as a 10-point favorite last weekend and I think they'll win and cover the spread again here at Tulsa Saturday afternoon.

The Golden Hurricane are 1-5 SU, 2-4 ATS on the season and took a 62-28 beating by Tulane last Saturday, their fourth straight loss. They were awful on the defensive side of the ball in the loss to Tulane, surrendering 653 total yards which included 488 rushing yards. Their 44 points allowed per game is the fifth worst mark in college football on the season.

Here they'll face a Houston team that rushed for a total of 265 yards last week with Duke Catalon accumulating 177 of those yards with a pair of scores. We can also note that Houston ranks 12th in the nation at only 16.2 points allowed per game.

The Cougars are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. Road team is 6-0 ATS in their last six meetings.

My CFB Game of the Week is a 10* play on Houston Cougars.
