Why Bet Against Tulane vs. the Houston Cougars

Tulane has gone 2-19 Straight Up since 2017 as an away dog.  Their opponent certainly looks attractive on the moneyline knowing this trend.  In fact, the Houston Cougars are 17-4 Straight Up since 2017 as a home favorite.

The price to bet Houston just to win is -160 (you will bet $16 to make a $10 profit).  Not bad.

Another hot stat is that Houston has won eight of the last nine home games versus the Green Wave.   They have won the last three overall. 

Houston (2-2) did have a bit of a harder time against Rice last week.  They won that game by seven points.

Nathaniel Dell had seven catches for 134 yards, including a 40-yard touchdown. Clayton Tune was 19-of-26 passing for 249 yards with two touchdowns and one interception.

Tulane has played well so far this season.  As a +13.5 dog, they knocked off Kansas State but followed that one up with a 3-point loss to USM.  The Green Wave was a -12 favorite in that one.
