Connecticut at Cincinnati

This is a super-low total here between two teams with defensive reputations.....but they also have plenty of offensive talent. UConn won the NCAA title last year and the Huskies are 4-1 OVER the total in their last five road games. The UConn defense has been shaky on the road, and as everyone is gunning for the champs, they allowed 72 points at Stanford in their last road game and 66 at Tulsa (both losses). The OVER is 4-1 when the Huskies are on the road against a team with a winning home record and they face a Cincy team that has won three in a row and seven of nine. Cincinnati has balanced scoring, with six players averaging between 6 and 10 points. And Cincinnati's defense won't be as sharp tonight as they’re operating without head coach Mike Cronin, who's still out as he deals with his health issues. Play this one OVER.
