Message: [QUOTE="RedtheGOB, post: 5564310, member: 8907"] On Houston. One of my frustrations with the commentary many places has been that people are like the opponents get "tougher" in Vegas. That's the case for Game 2 and Game 3 but Houston is in another league. This isn't some Big East game back in the day where we had 5 Big East teams in the top 25 just trading the #1 spot or Duke just getting that #1 ranking all year because it's Duke. This is Houston who lost in the Natty game last year and in the Final 4 2 years ago. The uptick in competition is as high as it can possibly be. Since covid they are 163-24. #1 ranking and #1 in kenpom today. This is not a Quad 1 game for us, this should be Quad -10 game. People want to see a competitive game and I do too but the reality is that there's maybe 3-5 teams a year that are doing that against Houston. Kansas and game 3 and Tenn though, that's another story.
