No. 3 Houston puts unbeaten mark on line vs. rival Rice

No. 3 Houston will look to continue its torrid start to the season and remain undefeated when it hosts Rice on Wednesday in the battle between city rivals.

The Cougars (8-0) head home after a gritty 66-60 win at Xavier on Friday in a Big East-Big 12 Battle contest. Houston prevailed thanks to LJ Cryer's game-high 23 points. Jamal Shead added 13 points, Emanuel Sharp had 10 and J'Wan Roberts pulled down 12 rebounds in the Cougars' first true road game of the season.

"Tough environment," Houston coach Kelvin Sampson after the win. "I don't think we played very good. The best thing about it was that we found a way to win."
