Cincinnati Bearcats vs. Tennessee Volunteers Odds and Statistics

The Cincinnati Bearcats and the Tennessee Volunteers will face each other on Saturday at Neyland Stadium.

It may not get any better than last week’s Upset Game Of The Week when the double-digit underdog Bulls took down Notre Dame in South Bend – but this has all the makings of a WTF (Wrong Team Favored) affair.

The Volunteers are listed as 6-point favorites against the Bearcats, and the total set at 51.

For starters, if you don’t think Butch Jones and the Bearcats are arriving on a serious ‘Mission’ after last season’s 4-8 collapse, check out last week’s 72-10 romp over Austin Peay.

Cincy’s 8-1 ATS record on the road when undefeated versus a foe off a SU win since 2000 also ties in nicely to Tennessee’s 0-8 ATS mark as home favorites after scoring 35 or more points versus an opponent with a winning record.

And while Rocky Top hasn’t performed well at home versus Big East opposition (2-6 ATS), the real clincher comes in the form of HC Derek Dooley… as his 0-13 SU ‘Baker’s Dozen Bagel’ against teams with a win percentage of .750 or greater on the betting season highlights.

Grab the points but don’t forget to save a few pennies for the money line (+200) as we’re calling for the outright win.
