I bet you thought that the game between the Cincinnati Bearcats and Florida State Seminoles was going to be a wide-open contest with beautiful transition basketball and lots of spectacular offensive plays. Based on the way these teams have played throughout the season, it would have been silly to expect anything else. Instead, they're doing the unthinkable. It's been a slightly slow, tough, defensive game with both teams struggling to make shots, and FSU leads Cincy 26-25 at halftime.
