Houston comes off a one-sided win over Rice (33-7) which followed a 16-12 loss to No. 15 Oklahoma as a +27.5 underdog. The defense has been outstanding, holding the Sooners to 249 total yards and just 2.6 yards per rush. Cincinnati won just one conference game last season, finishing last in the Big 12. They come off a win over Miami of Ohio and a loss in their last home game to Pittsburgh as a favorite, 28-27. The defense surrendered 498 yards to Pitt, including 196 yards rushing and 5.9 yards per carry. Cincinnati is on a 2-8 spread run, including 1-7 ATS at home. Play Houston.
