Premium Pick

A pair of teams with defensive reputations, which is why this total is so low. However, Cincinnati is 9-2 OVER the total against a team with a winning percentage below .400. Cincinnati shot 52% in its last road game, but the defense allowed 50% shooting in a loss at Temple giving up 75 points. Houston is home, where they offense plays best. The OVER is 7-1 in the Cougars last eight home games against a team with a losing road record. Houston's defense is a concern, in last place in the conference, off a loss to South Florida allowing 69 points and 51% shooting. Houston is 6-1 OVER the total at home versus a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Play Cincinnati/Houston OVER the total.
