Cincinnati vs Miami (OH) Betting Prediction

Although the Bearcats are a reputable team with a distinguished history, the current squad has not yet proven itself.

The Redhawks aren't doing well this season, but they'll be more resilient on the road than most other teams against an opponent from their own state.

Take the away team to cover the spread tonight because the Redhawks can score in bunches and routinely make their free throws.

Pick: Miami OH Redhawks +16.5 (-110)
