Over the last four games, they got blown out by Michigan (78-53) at the Fort Myers Tip-Off, squeezed by South Carolina State (71-68) as a 26-point favorite, and lost at TCU (76-72), turning it over 15 times.

The guard play of 6-8 seniors Simas Lukosius (16.3 ppg) and Jizzle James (13.6 ppg) leads the Bearcats in scoring and takes care of the basketball (9.5 turnovers per game). The defense is sixth in the country in points given up (58.9 per game) and 12th in shooting allowed (37.6%). Cincinnati is on a 9-7 spread run, while Xavier is 0-10 SU/ATS in its last ten as an underdog. Play Cincinnati.
