Matchup History

Trends
USF is 38-17-1 ATS in their last 56 road games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall while the over is 7-0 in their last 7 road games. Cincinnati is 11-2 ATS in their last 13 home games and 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games overall while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 games against a team with a losing record.
Pick
I’m leaning towards Cincinnati. USF has been able to cover against a fair number of teams on the road, but this Cincinnati team beat USF in their own building by 19 points a few weeks ago and hung 85 points on them in that game. Cincinnati’s far from an offensive juggernaut, but they play their best at home and I just think the Bearcats find a way to win this one by 11-13 points. Give me the Bearcats laying the number here.
