Result: Win
The Conference tournament play is on Cincy. Game 744 at 5:30 eastern on ESPN. The Bearcats are the 4th best defensive team in the country and handles a 16-16 U.Conn team twice this year both by double digits. The Huskies have failed to cover 4 of 5 in this series and 9 of 12 when they lose as a dog. They did a nice job getting back to .500 getting some revenge over a Houston team that beat them twice, This though is the end of the road for them. They are clearly not the U.Conn teams we have seen in the past. Cincy has covered 8 of 9 vs teams that are .500 or less. In this tourney teams off a win of 18 or more have covered 10 of 11 the past few seasons. U.Conn fits a negative tourney system based on their upset win and playing a 3rd straight game. They have failed to cover 12 of the last 14 when shooting less than 45%. Play on Cincy in this one
