Marcus Sasser was a major question mark entering Saturday, but the All-American was a major reason No. 1 Houston survived an upset bid from No. 9 Auburn.
Sasser scored 22 points as the Cougars earned an 81-64 come-from-behind win in the second-round matchup. It was especially impressive considering he was dealing with a groin injury that limited him during the first-round game.
Ari Alexander @KPRC2AriMarcus Sasser being "60%" according to Kelvin Sampson on the CBS broadcast is not a good sign.
Sasser was up and down during the game, sitting for long stretches due to foul trouble.
