How to watch, what to bet for SMU vs. Cincinnati

The American Conference has so many teams on the NCAA Tournament bubble it should be sponsored by L’Occitane. Both the SMU Mustangs and the Cincinnati Bearcats have a path to Selection Sunday, but will need some wins to hear their name called. Both teams enter Tuesday’s game at 5-2 in the league and have some early quality wins, but need an NET boost to get closer to security and potentially wearing home jerseys in the Round of 64.
