A pair of powerhouse defensive teams meet in the Big East, with both battling for positioning. Cincinnati plays the rough physical defensive game in the low post, tops in the Big East in rebounding, third in points allowed (59.1 ppg) and third in field goal shooting defense, allowing just 38.6% shooting in conference action. Cincy is on 23-8 run UNDER the total and the Bearcats are 39-19 UDNER the total against the Big East! Cincinnati shoots just 41% as a team and they will slow the pace down against a Notre Dame club that is home and capable of playing defense, off a 51-42 victory over Pittsburgh despite trailing by 16. Notre Dame is on a 9-4 run UNDER the total and the UNDER is 42-15-2 in the Fighting Irish last 59 games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. The Fighting Irish defeated the Bearcats 66-60 in Cincinnati on January 7th in a game that went UNDER the total. With so much at stake in this late season game the value is with a slow, defensive-oriented first half. Play Cincinnati/Notre Dame First Half UNDER the Total.
