As someone who follows Cincinnati very closely and goes to several of their games every yr, they don't match up well with UT. They're not as athletic and they're not a stellar 3 pt shooting team. I question whether they'll get past Iowa.
Like the Vols, UC does not have a good record in the tournament. Mick Cronin has been the coach since 2006. They've won both first rd games once in his Cincinnati career and he's never advanced beyond the Sweet 16. One Sweet 16 in over a dozen yrs
I'm not even sure Cincinnati beats Iowa. That will be a closer game than UT-Colgate
