Advantages Why Cincinnati can win
- Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Cincinnati about 7.6 points stronger over recent games.
- Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Cincinnati 67th (+8.8), Green Bay 224th (-3.0) of 365.
- Home court: Cincinnati play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
- Recent scoring margins: worth about 1.7 points to Cincinnati in our ratings.
- Team matchup: where Cincinnati can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (220th of 365) meets the Green Bay shooting defense (285th), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up. Pace clash: Cincinnati play fast (146th of 365 in pace), Green Bay slow (342nd); whoever sets the tempo gets the game they want.
- Star matchup: Best player against best player, Baba Miller (Cincinnati: 13.0 pts, 10.3 reb, 3.7 ast, Game Score 13.1) has the edge on Preston Ruedinger (Green Bay: 11.6 pts, 3.8 reb, 5.5 ast, Game Score 11.0).
- Simulation: Cincinnati win 4,565 of 5,000 simulated games.
Disadvantages Why Cincinnati may not
- Getting to the line (free throws per shot): Green Bay 13th (0.32), Cincinnati 344th (0.20) of 365.
- Three-point shooting: Green Bay 37th (36.4%), Cincinnati 180th (33.8%) of 365.
- Weak spot: Cincinnati rank 344th of 365 in getting to the line (free throws per shot) (0.20).
- Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
- Team matchup: a strength Cincinnati may not get to use. Their ball pressure (79th of 365) meets the Green Bay ball security (132nd), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to turn steals into easy points in transition.
- Star matchup: the key positions lean Cincinnati on paper, but Preston Ruedinger (11.6 pts, 3.8 reb, 5.5 ast, Game Score 11.0) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
- Upset odds: Green Bay win 435 of 5,000 simulations (9%). A 91% pick still loses about 1 time in 10.
