Houston is one of the favorites to win the NCAA Tournament and opens it title campaign on Thursday night with a battle against the Horizon League champion, Northern Kentucky.

The Norse have a bit of a history in the tournament and went on an impressive conference tournament run to reach this point. Houston, on the other hand, enters March Madness on a rare loss, as the Cougars were upset in the AAC tournament by Memphis.

Injury concerns are also present for star Marcus Sasser, who is a game-time decision for this 1 vs 16 contest.

Read on to see how the Action Network's college basketball PRO Report is projecting value on the game.
