FSU basketball looks to avoid third straight blowout, huge underdogs agaisnt Houston

Florida State basketball (5-3) has been embarrassed in its last two outings against SEC teams. The two losses were by a combined 70 points. All three of their losses are against SEC teams, and they will face the No. 8 Houston Cougars (7-1) on the road Saturday night at 8 p.m. ET.

FSU enters the contest as +15.5 betting underdogs, with the over/under points total of 145.5. Those odds imply an 80-65 win for the Cougars.

FSU’s issues have been a combination of things. They depend on three-point shots too frequently and don’t make enough of them.
