The Huskies are getting ready to travel to Mel Thomas' hometown of Cincinnati to face the Bearcats Tuesday night. I find this to be an interesting matchup for a few reasons. Namely, it is a road game. But also because Cincy just played Marquette, the Huskies opponent after the Bearcats.

Beating Notre Dame, a quality opponent is nice, especially after struggling aganist DePaul. But that was a home win, and the Huskies rarely lose at home.
