Houston is the definition of “defense wins games” and that is certainly going to play a role in them covering -13.5 points against Arizona State on CBB betting sites.

To start, the Cougars have the number one defense in the country allowing just 57.3 ppg while scoring 75.2 ppg themselves, a +17.9-point margin against their opponents.

On the Arizona State side of things, it comes down to their defense letting up just too many points at 74.2 points allowed per game.

For those who are hesitant on the extra two points should know that through their 14-11 record against the spread this season, they are covering by nearly 2 points on average at +1.8 points.

Another factor that’ll come into play with such a large spread is offensive efficiency for Houston. Although Houston has the ninth slowest paced offense in the country at just 65.8 possessions per game, they are second in the country as far as effective possession ratios go at 1.038. Put simply, they score often on their limited possessions.
