Over on the Cincinnati side, they’re rolling along undefeated this season, but did have a close scare in their last game.

The Hurricane are 5-0 ATS in their last five games in December and 4-1 ATS in their last five on turf. Tulsa is 7-1 ATS in their last eight overall and 6-1 ATS in their last seven conference games.
Meanwhile, the Bearcats are 5-1 ATS versus a team with a winning record and 4-1 ATS in their last five overall. Cincinnati is 4-1 ATS in their last five conference games and 4-1 ATS in their last five home games.
PICK: I’m going to stick with Cincinnati here. This is bound to be a close game, though. Tulsa dominated Navy in total yards (296-153) but had trouble breaking away in their last game, a closer-than-it-looked 19-6 win. The offense never really got in a scoring rhythm, which was pretty uncharacteristic for a team that normally puts up points with ease. As for Cincinnati, they’ve been consistent on the scoreboard for the most part, but the close game against the Knights is cause for concern. Still, I think the Bearcats can get the offense going and manage a cover here. Should be a fun one to watch.
