Auburn Form
Auburn are in the second round of March Madness despite a rough run of form over the past couple of months.
The Tigers lost eight of their last 12 regular season games, but did wrap up with a 79-70 win against #12 Tennessee.
They failed to follow that up in the SEC Championship tournament though, falling at the very first hurdle.
Auburn dropped a close one, 76-73, to Arkansas, but put that behind them in the opening round of the national tournament.
The Tigers knocked off #8 Iowa 83-75 to set up this second-round meeting with the Cougars.
Houston Form
Houston have not been playing their best recently, but they have now won 14 of their last 15 games.
The Cougars responded to a 56-55 defeat to Temple back in January 22 with an 11-game win streak to close out the regular season.
That good run of results continued in the AAC Championship tournament as they opened with a 60-46 victory over East Carolina.
Houston then made straightforward work of Cincinnati, 69-48, to book their place in the final against Memphis.
The Cougars came up short though, suffering a 75-65 defeat to a Tigers team they beat twice during the final few weeks of the regular season.
