Houston guard Marcus Sasser celebrates after a basket against Oregon State during the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament on Monday. Baylor opened as a 4.5-point favorite Monday night at Circa and the number has settled in at -5. Obviously Baylor will be the toughest test they’ve had to this point but they have the talent to do it. It’s also worth noting that Houston takes care of the ball very well, checking in 41st in turnover rate. I’m not quite calling for a Houston outright win, but I will say five points feels high in a game I fully expect to come down to the final minutes.
