Houston vs Memphis Game Preview

Why Houston Will Win

Houston, you feeling okay?

The talent is there, the experience is in place, and there’s no real reason why the team shouldn’t be far better. It’s closer to being 0-5 than it is 5-0, but it’s not like it’s that bad.

The offense is moving the chains without a problem, the defensive front lives in the backfield, and there aren’t a ton of turnover issues.

Memphis doesn’t have any sort of a pass rush, and that’s part of the reason why the secondary is having problems. This is where Clayton Tune and the Houston passing attack have to get going, but …

Why Memphis Will Win

The Memphis defense hasn’t been that bad.

Playing Navy, Arkansas State, North Texas, and Temple have something to do with that, but the run D has been strong and outside of the loss to Mississippi State, the secondary is holding up despite all the yards allowed.

And then there are the penalties. Memphis has been flagged 26 times with just ten over the last three games. Houston has doubled that up with a whopping 56 so far coming in a steady stream. For a team that can’t get anything consistently moving, the flags have been brutal.

What’s Going To Happen

Just how demoralized is Houston after the brutal loss to Tulane?

Is this when it kicks it all in and gets its season going, or is this when it drops another close game and goes into the tank?

It’s Houston so it’s going to be a much closer game than it needs to be, but the offense will come up with the balance to keep everything moving, and finally the defense will get the big stops needed in the second half to get out alive.

The Memphis offense will keep it close, but it won’t run well enough in the second half.

Why Houston Will Win

It’s been a while since Houston was able to play – it’s been almost a month. The team was coming off its best performance of the year with a 56-21 win over USF, the running game was rocking, and being rested and ready now isn’t a problem.

The Cougars haven’t been anything close to consistent so far, but that’s a function of the strange season that got going late and now had to take a time out.

And now, here comes the pass rush.

The Houston defense hasn’t been anything special, but getting behind the line and to the quarterback is the team’s calling card at times – generating two or more sacks against everyone but Cincinnati.

The Memphis offensive line hasn’t been bad, but the defense has had a rough time, the secondary has been ripped up, and the offense has stopped with no running game against FBS teams over the last month.

– Week 15 College Schedule

Why Memphis Will Win

Memphis is a much, much different team at home.

That shouldn’t matter in a year without fans, but the Tigers are 1-3 away from the Liberty Bowl, and that one victory was a 10-7 uggo against Navy.

At home? 5-0 including a win over UCF.

The Tigers might not do a lot against passing games that produce – giving up over 200 yards a game to every FBS team except Navy – but the run defense has been solid, the takeaways are there, and the D is good on third downs.

The Houston passing game – missing a few key receivers – hasn’t been sharp enough. It hasn’t been accuracy, the downfield plays aren’t there compared to the first three weeks, and it might not blow up on the leaky Memphis secondary.

– CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

Can Memphis find its groove again?

Being at home is going to be a big deal, but the turnover battle will mean even more.

Memphis has only lost the turnover battle three times. Once was in the 30-27 loss to SMU, one was last week in the loss to Tulane, and once was in a way-too-close fight against USF. Houston doesn’t force takeaways with just five in the six games.

It’ll be a fun, close game, with the Tigers pulling off the win with QB Brady White coming up with one of his sharpest games over the second half of the season.

Why Memphis Will Win

Memphis was able to pull off the 60-59 win a few weeks ago despite being disastrous from three and getting rocked on the boards.

How did the Tigers pull if off?

They hit 21 out of their 30 free throw attempts, and Houston only got to the line 12 times.

Houston has a great defense, but it commits lots and lots of fouls. Memphis isn’t great from the line, but it gets there all the time.

The Tiger defense is the best in the nation in field goal percentage allowed, they’re good enough on the boards to offset what Houston does best, and they own the defensive glass. But …

– “Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Houston Will Win

Houston is amazing on the boards.

Memphis might lead the American Athletic Conference in defensive rebounds, but Houston leads the nation in total boards. They’re outstanding at generating second chance points, they’re fantastic at defensing the three, and they can match up well on the inside.

Memphis has a big problem with turnovers, it’s not great from three, and it gives away lots of easy points in transition.

The Tigers also commit a whole lot of fouls. This time around, Houston has to get to the line a bit more shorten the gap that became a killer in the first matchup.

What’s Going To Happen

Houston has been a bit off lately, but its only home loss of the season came to BYU back on November 15th.

The defense will be strong, the rebounding differential will matter, and Memphis – who has lost three of its last four games on the road, and went to overtime in the lone win – won’t dominate the free throw battle this time around.

Houston (21-6) vs. Memphis (18-8) Game Preview

If want in on this week’s games, sign up with BetMGM

Why Houston Will Win

Memphis is having a hard time winning close games. It dropped three of its last four games, and all of them came down to the wire.

There are way too many turnovers and mistakes – WAY too many – and Houston doesn’t screw up enough to matter. Win the turnover battle, convert the steals into easy points, and all will be fine.

Amazing on the boards, Houston leads the nation in rebound margin and won’t allow a slew of second-chance points. End possessions, get on the move, and make Memphis try to shoot from the outside to get back in the game.

– “Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Memphis Will Win

The Tigers are great at forcing mistakes. They come up with a slew of steals, are excellent at coming up with blocks, and they’re disruptive enough to give the Cougars problems.

Best of all, they’re excellent on the boards. They’re not going to outbound Houston, but they’re not going to get get destroyed.

They might turn the ball over way too often, but they’re not bad at making the extra pass to generate easy points. They have to D up from three, force a slew of turnovers, and don’t get bogged down.

What’s Going To Happen

Can Memphis win a tight game again? The defense that leads the nation in field goal percentage D will hold up well – especially with Houston guard Quentin Grimes hobbling – but it’ll be yet another close heartbreaker.

Once again the Tigers will play well and have their chances to pull off a victory, and this time they’ll do it. Being at home will matter with the D coming up with the stop needed in the final moments.
