Illinois (23-9) barely survived the No. 13 seed Chattanooga Mocs on Friday night as they escaped with a 54-53 victory, shooting just 17.6% on 3-pointers with 14 turnovers. The Fighting Illini are underdogs against Houston, so they will need to put together a much better performance to come away with a win on Sunday.
Houston (30-5) was never really challenged by the No. 12 seed UAB Blazers on Friday in an 82-68 victory to advance to Round 2. The Cougars are beloved by the advanced analytics world, and oddsmakers suggest they’re likely headed to the Sweet 16 for the third straight NCAA Tournament.
