UC set to welcome No. 2 Houston

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Of the current roster, only Mika Adams-Woods played the last time the University of Cincinnati men's basketball team defeated the Houston Cougars. Sunday, the No. 2-ranked team in the country hits Fifth Third Arena for a 3 p.m. tip.

Tops in the NCAA NET and KenPom.com rankings, the Cougars are the highest-ranked squad to visit the Bearcats since the No. 2 Memphis Tigers came to town in 2007.

In Dec. 2007, Memphis was led by John Calipari and was undefeated on its way to a 38-2 record and an overtime loss in the NCAA national championship game to Kansas.
