First look: Tulane at Cincinnati odds and lines

Looking at Friday’s Tulane at Cincinnati college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The No. 20 Tulane Green Wave (9-2, 6-1 American) travel to Cincinnati to take on the No. 21 Cincinnati Bearcats (9-2, 6-1) Friday at noon ET (ABC). Below, we look at Tulane vs. Cincinnati odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our college football picks and predictions.

Ranking courtesy of AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY sports

While not a traditional long-term rivalry like many games this week, the Tulane vs Cincinnati game could be the most important game of the weekend. With Tulane ranked No. 21 and Cincinnati 25th by the College  Football Playoff committee, this game is likely to go a long way in deciding which Group of 5 team gets a New Years 6 game invite.

With UCF losing 17-14 to Navy on Saturday, the Green Wave and the Bearcats will be the top 2 teams in the playoff ranks when announced on Tuesday. The winner of this game will play UCF in the American Athletic Conference title game if UCF takes care of business against South Florida on Saturday. If UCF loses, these 2 teams will face each other again.

Tulane vs. Cincinnati head-to-head

Tulane and Cincinnati have only played once since 2018, a 31-12 victory by Cincinnati last season on its way to an undefeated regular season and trip to the playoffs. Despite winning the game by 19 points, the Bearcats did not cover the 27.5 spread and the 43 points in the game went well under the total of 62.

This game will be far closer between the 2 top teams in the AAC in 2022. Tulane is far better than it was in 2021 and Cincinnati is not as strong after losing 9 players to the NFL draft.

In what could be the first of 2 straight matchups between these teams, both will give it their all as they both must win this game and the next to gain a spot in the New Years 6 as the Group of 5 representative.

The Bearcats are led by QB Ben Bryant, who has 15 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. Cincinnati’s 38.2 points per game sit 23rd of 131 FBS programs.

SMU, on the other hand, is 3-3 under first-year coach Rhett Lashlee. He has QB Tanner Mordecai leading the way, who ironically also has 15 touchdowns and 6 interceptions.

This was actually a top-25 matchup in 2019, a battle that Cincinnati won. It has won the last 2 matches by at least 20 points and has only lost once to SMU under coach Luke Fickell.

Cincinnati has been known for its defensive prowess under Fickell and ranks 30th in the nation in opponents’ points per game. SMU’s strength is in its attack, averaging 35.5 points per game.

First look: Cincinnati at Arkansas odds and lines

Looking at Saturday’s Cincinnati Bearcats at Arkansas Razorbacks college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The Cincinnati Bearcats and the Arkansas Razorbacks open their seasons Saturday at Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville, Ark. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Cincinnati at Arkansas odds; check back for our college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Bearcats made history when they became the first Group of 5 team to make the College Football Playoff. The Bearcats were 13-0 in the regular season before bowing out 27-6 against Alabama in the Bowl Semifinal.

Cincinnati lost QB Desmond Ridder to the NFL, and will lead upon either QB Ben Bryant or QB Evan Prater to steer the ship. RB Jerome Ford is also gone to the NFL, but the cupboard is anything but bare for head coach Luke Fickell.

The Razorbacks won 9 games in 2021, including a bowl win over Penn State. Arkansas lost WR Treylon Burks to the NFL, but stud QB K.J. Jefferson is back to run the RPO attack for the Hogs.

Cincinnati is No. 22 and Arkansas is No. 23 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

First look: Cincinnati at Notre Dame odds and lines

Previewing the Cincinnati Bearcats at Notre Dame Fighting Irish Week 5 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

A pair of undefeated teams square off when the No. 7 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (4-0) host the No. 8 Cincinnati Bearcats (3-0) Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Cincinnati vs. Notre Dame odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Rankings courtesy of the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Cincinnati had a bye last week but took down the Indiana Hoosiers 38-24 as 4.5-point road favorites Sept. 18. The Bearcats are led by preseason mid-tier Heisman Trophy favorite, QB Desmond Ridder, who’s completing 65.1% of his passes with a 7 TD to 2 INT ratio and a 163.8 passer efficiency rating.

Notre Dame upset the then-No. 15 Wisconsin Badgers 41-13 as 6-point underdogs Saturday at Soldier Field in Chicago. Fighting Irish QB Jack Coan exited the game in the third quarter with an ankle injury, and his status for this game is questionable. Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly passed Knute Rockne for the most wins in program history.

Cincinnati at Notre Dame head-to-head

This is the first Cincinnati-Notre Dame meeting since 1900 when the Fighting Irish shut out the Bearcats 58-0. That was probably a decent precursor of things to come for each program.

Since then, Notre Dame has won the second-most national championships (Cincinnati has none), the most consensus All-Americans, the most Heisman Trophies and the most players selected in the NFL draft.

However, since Kelly took over the Notre Dame program in 2010, the Fighting Irish are 22-25 overall (26-21 ATS) vs. ranked opponents and 5-2 overall and ATS as a home underdog.

On the other hand, Cincinnati has distinguished itself as perhaps the best Group of 5 football program since hiring head coach Luke Fickell in 2017.  The Bearcats are 38-14 overall since 2017 and are 2-1 in bowl games. Against ranked opponents, Cincinnati is 4-8 overall and 7-5 ATS over that span.
