Shockers look for crucial victory over No. 6 Houston

As Wichita State hosts Houston on Thursday night, the Shockers look for its first home victory against a team ranked No. 6 or higher since 1967.

Houston has dominated the matchup since WSU joined the AAC, leading the series 6-1. The Cougars have won six consecutive matchups after the Shockers won the first game in 2017. Only two matchups have been hosted inside Charles Koch Arena in that time period and the teams have split those games.

The Shockers enter this matchup tied in the loss column with Houston and a victory on Thursday night would put WSU in first place by winning percentage.
