BYU won last year's meeting 38-24 as the game went UNDER by six points. So far, six of the Cougars' eight games this season have gone UNDER, including their 28-27 loss at Boise State on Oct. 20. BYU averaged 3.6 yards per carry against the Broncos and Taysom Hill was 21-of-42 for 187 yards and no touchdowns. Hill has been erratic this season with almost as many interceptions (eight) as touchdown passes (nine). BYU is averaging 28.0 points per game compared to 22.8 for Cincinnati, which has gone UNDER in five of its last six games, including Saturday's 34-13 loss at Temple. The Bearcats rushed for only 67 yards against the Owls and QB Gunner Kiel passed for just 119 yards completing 15-of-27. BYU has gone UNDER seven of its last nine road contests. The Cougars are ranked #79 in total offense yards and Cincy is #84. Take the UNDER.

Pro Picks
Cincinnati at BYU
The BYU Cougars have lost a lot of experience and production from their offense. QB Taysom Hill went down early, as did star running back Jamaal Williams. The Cougars have since lost another running back, and reserve QB turned starter is on the injury report this week with a hamstring issue. Cincinnati has been explosive at times offensively, but they are off a huge win vs. Miami, Fla., which could have this team facing a letdown. Both of these teams like to play an up-tempo game, but BYU has appeared to slow things down. One of the biggest drawbacks to this Cincinnati team is their inability to secure the ball, as the Bearcats are averaging three turnovers per contest. The Bearcats seemingly play a lot of high-scoring games, but four of their last five on grass have actually played UNDER. The fast-paced BYU offense seems to be slowed a bit when playing on week nights, especially Thursday and Friday where they are 16-7 to the UNDER. Make the play on the UNDER.
