Houston Cougars vs Saint Josephs Hawks Predictions 11/11/2022

 

The Saint Joseph’s Hawks‘ season opener against No. 3 Houston will be difficult. Saint Joseph’s had an 11-19 overall record and a 5-13 record in conference games in the 2021–22 season.

 

The Hawks scored 67.6 ppg while making 42.1% of their field goals, 33.6% of their 3-point attempts, and 65.4% of their free-throws. They averaged 13.5 assists, 4.9 steals, and 2.5 bpg in addition to grabbing 37.6 rebounds per game.

 

The Hawks committed 13.5 turnovers a game on average.

 

Due to Jordan Hall’s NBA career and Taylor Funk’s involvement with Utah State, the Hawks will be missing its top two scorers from the previous season.

 

This year, Ejike Obinna is coming back. The 6-foot-10-inch center finished the previous season posting 12.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 0.7 assists while connecting on 57.4% of his field goal attempts and 48.8% of his free throw attempts.

  • The total went UNDER in 5 of Saint Joseph’s last 5 matches.

#3 Houston Cougars vs Saint Joseph’s Hawks. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #3 Houston Cougars.

 

Last year, the Cougars enjoyed a standout year, capturing the AAC conference title and advancing to the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament.

 

In their season opener against Northern Colorado, they performed well. Sasser and Walker complement each other well because Sasser can score points and Walker can grab rebounds to help Houston maintain possession of the ball.

 

The younger Saint Joseph’s squad won’t be prepared to take on the Cougars at this early point in the season since it lost its top two scorers.

 

After this game, the Cougars will improve to 2-0. The #3 Houston Cougars will win to a predicted score of 72-51.
