The <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/houston-cougars/">Houston Cougars</a> and the <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/texas-longhorns/">Texas Longhorns</a> are getting set to play one another in a key Big 12 conference clash this Monday. For many fans, it’s exciting to simply get this game as a conference clash before the Longhorns move onto the SEC next season, and the regular season conference race only makes things more interesting.



The Cougars are coming into the game as one of the country’s top teams and are ranked in the top 10 of the polls. The Longhorns, meanwhile, have been ranked at times this season but have lost three of its last five and need to get back on track quickly. After all, the Big 12 slate is daunting and things could get out of hand quickly. 



Ahead of the game, here is a look at the odds, win probably, and final score predictions for this important game between Houston and Texas. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-odds-for-houston-vs-texas">Odds for Houston vs. Texas</h2>



Coming into the game, the Houston Cougars are a 5.5-point favorite over the Texas Longhorns, <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/ncaab">according to FanDuel</a>. On top of that, the Cougars are listed at -205 for the moneyline, while the Longhorns are currently listed at +168.



This game’s point total is currently listed at 129.5 points. That’s largely on the back of Houston’s excellent defense. This season, the Cougars are allowing just 60 points per game. The Longhorns, meanwhile, haven’t had a game score fewer than 130 points since December, when they held <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/unc-greensboro-spartans/">UNC-Greensboro</a> to just 37 points.
