I think someone in another thread mentioned that Andy Katz picked UConn and Seth Greenberg picked Cincinnati.
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/forde-m...738-ncaab.html AMERICAN (16) Dates: Thursday-Sunday, in Orlando. Top seed: Temple. The best team in the conference most of the year was SMU, but the Mustangs are banned from the postseason – and some late losses opened the door for the Owls to win the regular-season title. But Temple still doesn’t have a fool-proof NCAA résumé, so it had better win some games in Orlando. Dark horse: Cincinnati. The No. 4 seed draws Connecticut in the quarterfinals and already has beaten the Huskies twice. And the Bearcats got a nice springboard into the postseason by beating SMU on Sunday. Pomeroy conference rank: Seventh out of 32. Minutes pick: Cincinnati. Bearcats will guard all day, every day, which means they will be a tough out. If they make enough shots, they’ll cut down the nets. |

Heard on the First Preview podcast that UC is +250 and UConn is +300 to win AAC tourney. We are the favorites.

If UC wins the AAC they may be the only bid the conference gets in that scenario. Not sure if Tulsa goes if they make the final and lose.
