Bearcats pounce for another statement performance

DePaul

Blue Demons (4-16-14-19) VS Bearcats (7-13-18-15)

Apr 1, 2025 | 3:00 PM ET | Cincinnati, OH

Cincinnati
Moneyline Pick: Cincinnati (-476) - A
Bearcats center Anthony Caldwell has powered Cincinnati through a three-game surge, contrasting sharply against the Blue Demons' two straight defeats, and Cincinnati looks especially formidable even though their D has been without a key reserve due to injury. Both teams have surpassed 41 total games, so this matchup carries meaningful postseason weight, particularly for a Cincinnati squad driven by Caldwell's historical success against DePaul’s frontcourt. With confidence fueled by their improving chemistry, the Bearcats appear primed to maintain their momentum on home court, securing a solid return for bettors if they capitalize on their recent winning trend.

Over/Under Pick: Over 143.5, (-110) - B+
DePaul lurches forward on a four-game losing streak, while Cincinnati enters with two straight wins fueled by scorching transition play. The Blue Demons’ starting forward remains sidelined with a lingering knee issue, and the Bearcats’ center nurses a minor wrist injury, leaving both teams to rely on deeper rotations. DePaul’s dynamic guard, who historically drops 20-plus points against Cincinnati’s defense, should spark a flurry of offensive runs, while the Bearcats’ perimeter shooter has torched the Blue Demons from beyond the arc in past meetings. An upbeat tempo and depleted interior presence indicate a higher-scoring contest, elevating this Over 143.5 pick to a solid B+ grade and promising decent returns at -110 odds. Odds and availability are subject to change. This bet was made at 01/04/2025 05:58
Spread Pick: DePaul, +9.5 (-103) - B


DePaul’s recent four-game skid has sparked questions about morale, yet guard Jalen Terry remains active and ready to ignite a perimeter attack despite rumors of early-season ankle concerns. On the other side, Cincinnati enters on a slight upswing after a couple of tight conference wins, although the Bearcats are wary of forward Viktor Lakhin’s questionable status for tipoff. Historically, DePaul has protected bettors when facing Cincinnati, covering the spread in several pivotal meetings. With a moderate payoff and a decent chance of cashing, this wager earns a solid B.
