Houston currently sits in fifth place in The American standings and is on a two-game winning streak entering tonight's meeting with UCF. The last time the two teams tangled, the Knights prevailed 77-70 at CFE Arena. Cougar guard Damyean Dotson nearly posted a double-double in the loss as he scored 10 points and pulled down eight rebounds.

On the year, Dotson ranks sixth in The American with 15.5 points per game and ninth in rebounds (7.4 rpg). The senior guard, who has registered 20 or more points in the last three outings, will look to help the Kelvin Sampson squad earn a quality league win at Hofheinz Pavilion.

The game time is 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on ESPNU.
