AAA's SECOND ROUND "ASSASSIN!" (Thursday!)
(NCAAB) Purdue vs. Cincinnati,
Point Spread: 1.00 | -110.00 Cincinnati (Home)
Result: Win
Point Spread: 1.00 | -110.00 Cincinnati (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* ASSASSIN on Cincinnati.
I jumped on this line the second it came out and got +2, it's since come down from there, but regardless, I think that Cincinnati has a few advantages working in its favor today and expect the Bearcats to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night. This is the fifth year in a row that Cincinnati has played in the NCAA Tournament and comes into the fray having won five of its last six games after finishing the regular season tied for third in the AAC. Both of these teams get the job done with a tough nosed defensive unit, the Bearcats rank sixth in the country in scoring defense, giving up just 55.3 PPG. The Boilermakers have the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year on their side in junior guard Rapheal Davis (note though that Davis is just one of two Purdue players averaging double digits in scoring). Obviously these teams are pretty evenly matched, but I give the slight nod to the Bearcats defense, but also a big nod to their overall experience; note that UC is 1-1 all-time at the KFC Yum! Center, most recently knocking off UofL 69-66 in its last road game vs. the Cardinals on January 30th, 2014. Play on CINCINNATI!
