chicago.suntimes.com

The Houston Cougars, led by coach Kelvin Sampson, are favored to win the NCAA championship this year. After a rocky start, the team has won 26 of their last 27 games, showcasing strong defensive skills. Sampson, who has previously taken four schools to 20 NCAA Tournaments without a title, aims to change that this season. Houston's recent performance includes a 19-1 record in the Big 12 and a successful league tournament run. In the tournament, Houston is expected to face tough competition, including Michigan State, which is also noted for its strong perimeter play. The Cougars are looking to secure their first national championship in San Antonio.
