Cincinnati entered their Round of 32 game with Kentucky has heavy underdogs, with many tabbing them to lose by 15-20-plus points in becoming victim number two on the Wildcats run to the national title. Kentucky entered the game with an unblemished 35-0 record, a mark that features 10 less losses than their counterpart on Saturday.
