Houston has thus far shut down Clayton. I figured they would defend him hard, but wow. Nonfactor.

It isn't like FL is playing crappy defense...or overall. Houston will have to keep this up to win. If they slip, they will find themselves in trouble, especially if Clayton gets hot.

Houston might have the best defense I've seen in college and they don't play anyone over 6'8".

Their top five in Minutes go 6'1, 6'4, 6'8, 6'3, and 6'6. For all the size queens out there, you don't need to have a 7 foot C and a 6'9 PF to win in college basketball.

FWIW you don't even need that in the NBA. Golden State won a few NBA titles where their tallest starter was 6'8.

Yes, admittedly Houston's guys are "grown men."

I don’t know that you could call this a good game, with all the poor shooting, but it sure is a fun one. Refs letting them play, would have been about three flagrants in a B1G game by now.

That's insane. They don't have anyone who plays significant minutes over 6'8.... Had to double check that but it's right.

This is game is cooked for Houston. They won't let Florida match Houston physicality.

Houston has Florida frustrated as they foul and push to try and match the Cougar's intensity and aggressiveness. If Clayton can't get going, this game is most likely a Cougar championship

Yuck. No denying though, that they are good enough to deserve it. Just wish the coach's ring finger would swell up so he can't wear the ring...ever. Yes, that is petty and I don't care.

Game not lasting long enough, gotta start calling fouls for more ad revenue
