Houston 61, Arkansas 50 — 15:54, 2H
Malique Ewin is a matchup problem for Houston, but he is not capitalizing enough at the free throw line where is 8 for 15 (with 3 consecutive makes). Ewin has 16 points and 7 rebounds.
Houston has already committed its sixth foul of the second half, so the Razorbacks are going to have a chance to shoot a lot of free throws before this game is over.
The Cougars have hit a pair of 3s in this half to keep Arkansas from getting too close. Emanuel Sharp's 3 from the wing was a better shot to end a good defensive possession by the Razorbacks and give Houston an 11-point lead.
