Central Florida Knights
Central Florida’s four losses this season are: Miami by nine, Penn by one, at Oklahoma by one and Temple by four.
Head Coach Johnny Dawkins and the Knights still don’t have a victory against a team better than them, at least according to Sports-Reference’s Simple Rating System (SRS).

That will be excused for now, as the Knights lost BJ Taylor, Aubrey Dawkins and Tacko Fall from last year’s team.
The reload has been led by Collin Smith, 6’11”, and Ceasar DeJesus, 6’2”, who compliment each other as scorers and combine to average close to five assists per game.
A freshman duo of Darin Green and Dre Fuller is averaging over sixteen points per game. Green is the only top-five scorer who has more turnovers than assists.
Dazon Ingram, who started over 100 games in his career at Alabama before graduating, is pursuing a Master’s Degree and averaging 9.4 points, 7.5 rebounds and a team-high 3.9 assists per game in his fifth year.
Houston Cougars
Besides, Houston, the thirty-sixth-best team in the country, according to the SRS, doesn’t have one of those wins either. It missed chances — two of them at home — against BYU (19), Oregon (6, the away game) and Oklahoma State (28).
The Coogs blew-out Alabama State and Houston Baptist but didn’t get an impressive win until they beat South Carolina, on the road, by twenty.
They returned home for another uninspiring three-game stretch before sweeping their schedule at the Diamond Head Classic in Honolulu, highlighted by a four-point win against Washington (49) on Christmas Day.
And that was the last time UH was in action.

Free Central Florida Knights vs. Houston Cougars NCAAB Prediction: it’s tight.
Quentin Grimes, who started thirty-six games as a freshman for Kansas last season, will be the most talented scorer on the floor in this game and perhaps every other in conference play. But he’ll find it tough if he isn’t getting help from guys like Dejon Jarreau (pictured).
Jarreau is a 6’5” guard who had six double-digit scoring games in Houston’s first seven. Since, he has none in six, including two games with zero. He played just six minutes in the victory over Washington.
Houston breezed at times in conference play a year ago. Not so this time. Central Florida should keep this tight as a sign of what’s to come for the Coogs over the next two months.
