The Cincinnati Bearcats have a matchup with powerhouse Wichita State on deck, but I don't think they'll look past Tulane here as they still have a chance to earn a share of the American Athletic Conference regular-season title.

Tulane is in a letdown spot after ending a six-game losing skid with a 79-68 win at South Florida its last time out. Green Wave are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games following a straight up win and 5-22 ATS in their last 27 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600.

Cincinnati is 6-1 ATS in its last seven games following a ATS loss, which it is here after beating Tusla by only eight points as a 17-point favorite its last time out.

The Bearcats connected on 15-of-22 attempts from downtown in the victory, and I expect a better defensive performance here with Cincinnati allowing an average of just 57.5 points per game (2nd in the country) and its plus-18.6 average scoring margin leads the country.

My selection is a 10* play on Cincinnati Bearcats.
