Houston (3-2) will host another in-state rival when Texas State (6-2) comes to town Wednesday night at Fertitta Center in a matchup that could see the Cougars play without two of its strongest players.
Both sophomore Quentin Grimes, who is dealing with a bruised tibia, and redshirt freshman guard Caleb Mills, who is dealing with a bruised rib, are questionable to play.
The Bobcats come to Houston as winners of six of their first eight games, and in their losses have played well against tough opponents like Baylor.
“They are a very well-coached team,” head coach Kelvin Sampson said.
