I'm feeling like a delicious sandwich over here with these two NCAA top seeded titans ready to bite into each other. On one side, we have the Houston Cougars, dribbling with ambition, and on the other, the Duke Blue Devils, dunking their way to dominance.

Looking at the Cougars, LJ Cryer has been lighting up the court with his sniping, averaging 17.5 points per game last month. Not too far behind is Milos Uzan, who's also been contributing a solid 13.2 points per match. Let's not overlook Emanuel Sharp, who's been performing consistently both last month and this season. The Cougars must be thrilled with the roar these guys have had on the court.

Switching lanes, let's have a chat about the Blue Devils. Cooper Flagg has been racking up the points like he's making easy money, with a startling 17.4 points per game in the last month. In his faithful shadow we have Kon Knueppel, contributing a nifty 17.0 point per game average. And we mustn't forget Tyrese Proctor, adding a cool 14.7 points to the mix last month. There's enough heat on this team to singe any opponent standing too close.

Now, history whispers memories of their past clash where Duke came out with a squeaky-clean 3-point win, but recent form throws a splash of doubt on a clear cut winner. The Cougars carry a hard-fought win over Purdue, whereas Duke seems to have been trampling their opposition, most notably spanking Alabama by 20. Regular season records are somewhat null, both teams displaying a commendable set of wins.

So, what does the future behold for these two gladiators in their march towards glory? By gum, it's going to be a knockout punch-for-punch contest but I've got a hunch here.
