Cincinnati -20 (8*)
(NCAAF) Cincinnati vs. Miami (Ohio),
Point Spread: -20.00 | -110.00 Cincinnati (Away)
Result: Loss
The Cincinnati Bearcats lost at home to Temple last week, but they couldn't ask for a better opponent as they look to get back on track here this Saturday. They will play on the road versus the Redhawks of Miami-OH. The Redhawks put up a goose egg in a 58-0 loss to Wisconsin last week.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Quarterbacks - Billy Bahl and Drew Kummer combined to throw for 164 yards and three INTs on 13-of-34 passing last week. They aren't likely to fare much better against a Cincinnati defense that limited Temple to just 81 yards passing last week. Gunner Kiel threw for 427 yards and a pair of TDs, but was picked off four times against Temple. He's likely going to put up better numbers here against an inferior opponent.


2. Previous History - The Bearcats have won nine straight versus Miami-OH, covering the spread in six of those nine games.

3. X-Factor - The Redhawks are 8-18 ATS in their last 26 games in September.

Selection: This is a play on the Cincinnati Bearcats (8*)
