Houston Cougars vs. UConn Huskies Game Preview

If you predicted that Houston and UConn would have a combined three wins through the first half of the season, you’re probably rich. Granted, that has more to do with Houston than anything. UConn continues to struggle on its way out of the conference, but the Cougars are experiencing their own troubles. The Coogs season has been filled with drama, and they’re just trying to focus on football. A blowout win appears to be in the forecast, but that also could be wishful thinking.

Date: Saturday, October 19th
Start time: 11:00am CT
How to watch: ESPNU
Line: Houston -22
Location: Pratt & Whitney Stadium (East Hartford, CT)
