Houston’s Marcus Sasser looked just fine, scoring 22 points, and top-seeded Houston stifled Auburn in the second half for an 81-64 victory in the NCAA Tournament on Saturday night at Legacy Arena in Birmingham.

Led by Tramon Mark with 26 points, Houston advanced to face either No. 4 Indiana or No. 5 Miami, which play Sunday, at the Sweet 16 in Kansas City, Missouri. Sasser had dealt with a groin injury over the past week, but that didn’t seem to cause him any problems. When he swished a 3-pointer to push Houston back ahead, 46-45, he let out an emphatic scream on his way back down the court.Sasser’s only issue was foul trouble. The All-American guard and his running mate, point guard Jamal Shead, were both forced to the bench with four fouls apiece with the game still in doubt.
