Utah and Houston looking to cement themselves as Big 12 title contenders in Top 15 matchup
Undefeated Utah still has plenty to prove when the Utes battle Houston on Saturday night. The No. 10 Utes (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) are off to their best start since 2015 but have piled up wins against a weak schedule. None of Utah鈥檚 first six opponents have a record above .500 at the season鈥檚 midway point. Playing the No. 14 Cougars should offer a more accurate measure of where the Utes stack up against other Big 12 title contenders.
Houston (6-1, 3-1) comes into Salt Lake City more battle-tested after earning victories over then-No. 18 Oklahoma State, Kansas State, and Oregon State.
