Kelvin Sampson Downplays Home Court Advantage for Houston in Sweet 16 Run
Houston Cougars coach Kelvin Sampson acknowledged the excitement of playing the Sweet 16 near campus but downplayed its significance, asserting his team’s focus remains solely on basketball. The Cougars secured their seventh Sweet 16 appearance in eight years with a win over Texas A&M, led by Emanuel Sharp’s 18 points.
Houston will now face Illinois in the Sweet 16 as they continue their March Madness journey.
