The No. 8 Cincinnati Bearcats (5-0, 2-2 ATS) will play against the No. 21 South Florida (5-0, 3-1 ATS) at the Raymond James Stadium this Thursday October 15th at 7:30PM ET.
The Big East host a big battle between the two tops teams in the conference this Thursday night when the No. 8 Cincinnati Bearcats travel south to take on the No. 21 South Florida Bulls. The Bearcats are the favorites to win the conference this season, but face a South Florida team that has steam rolled the competition and reach a Top 25 ranking. The Bulls strong early season run has lifted their hopes of a conference title and they get their big chance to prove they are worthy for the opportunity when they host the Bearcats on Thursday night.
The Bearcats have found success in their star quarterback Tony Pike who has entered the Heisman talk. Pike has been sensational behind center for the Bearcats leading the number 6 passing attack in the country averaging 329 passing yards per game. Pike has racked up 1,493 yards and 13 touchdowns already in just 5 games with just 3 picks on the season. The Bearcats quarterback also holds a strong completion percentage at 67% and there have not been any defenses that have been able to stop Pike and the Bearcats receivers thus far this season.
About the rushing, we can see that the Bearcats have 138 yards while the Bulls have the lead on this with 190 yards. The key players to watch in this matter are J. Ramsey with 36 carried yards for Cincinnati and M. Plancher with 51 carried yards for the Bulls.
At the receiving yards we can see that Cincinnati has the lead. M. Gilyard has a little advantage with 38 yards over C. Mitchell with just 21 for the Bulls. And I think this information is very valuable in order to decide who is the safer pick.
On offense the Bulls have strived behind freshman quarterback B.J Daniels. Daniels stepped in for Matt Grothe who was lost for the season and has done a good job. The dual threat behind center has thrown for 602 yards and rushed for an additional 291 through 3 starts this season. Daniels style of play helps keep defenses on their toes forcing respect from both the pass and run defense from the Bearcats.
The Live Lines are ready now for the game and you can go ahead and post some action on that game which is going to be leaded by Cincinnati at least by 7 points. Take some time to look at the lines and place the bets now. More information here.
