Despite both residing in the same state, this is the first regular season meeting between these two clubs since 1921. Maybe Ohio State wanted to avoid losing to an in-state rival. I don't think they'll be able to avoid that fate here. The Buckeyes lost some key components from last year, including Big Ten Player of the Year Keita Bates-Diop. This team has dropped all of their last six non-conference games against the number. The Bearcats have a couple of returning starters from a tournament team last season, and they have the home court here. Ohio State was 21-11 to the UNDER last season. And under head coach Mike Cronin, Cincy is 196-137 to the UNDER including 90-53 UNDER when the total is set in the 130s as it is here. Take the Bearcats on the moneyline and back the UNDER.
