#21 Tulane Green Wave vs #25 Cincinnati Bearcats. The NCAAF pick for this game is the #21 Tulane Green Wave. Cincinnati won four straight games against Tulane, including a 31-12 away triumph last year. The under is worth looking at because they are the top two defenses in the conference. The Green Wave will triumph on the road because their offense is more evenly matched. The Wave is performing admirably this season and just defeated the SMU Mustangs. In that game, Tulane averaged 8.1 yards per play for 451 yards, including 310 rushing yards. Although the passing game was not that impressive, the Wave was a chilly 0-of-7 on third downs. In Cincinnati’s previous game against Temple, their defensive play was flawless. However, the offense’s second half was largely uneventful. The Bearcats won’t be able to cover against Tulane since it will be a more difficult opponent. The Green Wave will win to a predicted score of 24-20.
