College Football Betting Trends
Tulsa
Tulsa has hit the over in five of their last six conference games, but the Hurricanes are 13-4 with the under in their last 17 games following a loss.
Cincinnati
The Bearcats are 23-9 with the under in their last 32 games against a losing team and 4-1 with the under in their last five games on fieldturf.
Prediction:
These two have hit the over in their last two meetings, going over 75 points in both of them. The Golden Hurricanes are struggling to make stops this year, but Cincinnati isn’t an offense that is terribly overwhelming. The Bearcats are led by their defense and I think they can handle Tulsa. They held an explosive UCF offense to 27 points at home a few weeks ago. I wouldn’t expect for much from the Hurricanes.
