For the second straight game, eighth-ranked Houston was cruising past an American Athletic Conference opponent inside of the Fertitta Center.
Junior guard Marcus Sasser had a hot hand, shooting 4 of 8 on 3-pointers, and had 18 points heading into the halftime break.
As a team, UH lead 45-19, the same score from Sunday’s game when they thrashed rival UCF, but this time it was against Tulsa. The only team that has defeated the Cougars in the 2020-21 season.
Entering Wednesday’s contest, the Golden Hurricane were the second-best scoring defense in the conference, holding opponents to only 60.
