Trends

Cincinnati is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games. The under is 4-1 in Cincinnati’s last 5 games and the over is 5-2 in their last 7 road games. Hofstra is 9-1 ATS in their last 10 home games and 17-4 ATS in their last 21 games. The over is 22-10 in Hofstra’s last 32 home games. 

Pick

Hofstra played very well on the offensive end of the court in their last game at Rutgers, which is not easy to do. Cincinnati also had a good scoring day against Virginia Tech and they have won three of their last four games. Hofstra has scored 88, 73, 94, and 84 points in their last four games and I think we are going to see another high scoring game here. I like the over.
