With one more win, the Cougars will become the second program to repeat as outright Big 12 champs, redeeming a coach's pivotal decisions.

Right now, Houston has only clinched a share of the Big 12 regular title, but it would be shocking to see anyone catch the Cougars. Houston has a 3.5-game lead on the next closest team, so if they win just one of their remaining three games, they will win the conference outright.

However, in the conference tournament title game, they were throttled by Iowa State. No doubt that revenge was on the Cougars’ minds when the two teams faced off Saturday afternoon at the Fertitta Center.
