Ohio State BuckeyesThe Buckeyes are coming off a highly successful 25-9 season that saw Ohio State post a 15-3 record in conference play. This lead to a 3rd place overall ranking in the Big Ten and naturally an invite to the conference championship. Unfortunately, that invite didn’t amount to much as Ohio Stat would be eliminated right from the get go. Facing Penn State in the quarterfinals, Ohio State would lose a tight contest 68-69. Although they were vying for a better outing in the national tournament, that hope didn’t come to fruition either. Ohio State did however, manage to defeat South Dakota State in the First Round 81-73. Nevertheless that would be as far as the program would make it since Gonzaga displayed their dominance in the second round 84-90, sending the Buckeyes packing. But with some eye-catching recruits, Ohio State is ready to kick off the 2018 college basketball betting season with a splash. Players to Watch: CJ Jackson (12.6 ppg, 3.9 rpg, 3.9 apg), Jae’Sean Tate (12.3 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 2.9 apg), and Kaleb Wesson (10.2 ppg, 4.9 rpg, 2.9 apg). Cincinnati BearcatsThe Bearcats turned in a highly successful 31-5 record in 2018. That included a 16-2 record in the American Athletic Conference which saw them finish as the best team, in the AAC. Ultimately Cincinnati would go on to prove their ACC dominance in the conference tournament, winning the tourney handily. All in all Cincy was unchallenged up until the championship game, where Houston gave them a run for their money. But in the end, the Bearcats found a way to win 56-55. In the NCAA Tournament, Cincinnati, like Ohio State, would be eliminated in the Second Round. Their opening matchup resulted in a dominant 68-53 win over Georgia State.
