KEY GAME INFORMATION

CINCINNATI: Last season: 30-6, finished second in American Athletic Conference.
Who's gone: Point guard Troy Caupain, guard Kevin Johnson, forward Quadri Moore.
Who's back: Guard Jacob Evans III averaged 13.5 points, tops on the team. Forward Kyle Washington was hard to stop with his one-handed shot and averaged 12.9 points, 6.8 rebounds. Forward Gary Clark had a breakout season, averaging 10.8 points and a team-high 7.9 rebounds. Guard Jarron Cumberland was an erratic shooter as a freshman, averaging 8.3 points, and is expected to move into a bigger role. Point guard Justin Jennifer averaged 2.8 points and 1.9 assists as Caupain's backup.
Who's new: Point guard Cane Broome sat out last season after transferring from Sacred Heart, where he averaged 23.1 points. He's quick and streaky as a shooter. The Bearcats are looking to use his speed on defense initially.
The Skinny: The Bearcats won the second-most games in school history but finished behind SMU in the American Athletic and lost in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. They're looking to win the conference and go deeper in the tournament with their most balanced team in Cronin's 12 seasons. They're playing home games at Northern Kentucky University this season while their on-campus arena is renovated.

PREVIEW

Cincinnati gets needed rest before facing Georgia State

With the American Athletic Conference regular-season and tournament titles tucked neatly into their pockets, the Cincinnati Bearcats set out to tackle their next mission: the program's first Final Four since 1992.

Cincinnati's No. 2 seed in the South Region marks the school's highest seed since drawing a No. 1 in 2002. The Bearcats haven't been a No. 2 since 2000 and haven't been higher than No. 5 since the 2014 season.

Their march to San Antonio begins Friday with a first-round matchup with No. 15 seed Georgia State at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.

Head coach Mick Cronin was thrilled with the scheduling, saying his team needed some time to rest after a challenging run in the conference tournament, including a 56-55 nail-biting victory over Houston in the title game.

"That's big," Cronin said. "I hope that helps us."

Head coach Ron Hunter's team earned the Sun Belt Conference's automatic bid with a 74-61 victory over Texas-Arlington in the tournament final over the weekend.

Hunter, who famously coached from a stool and moved around on a scooter after tearing his Achilles when his son hit a buzzer-beater to beat Baylor in the 2015 tournament, said despite the seed discrepancy, his team would be prepared for Cincinnati.

"Cincinnati stays at Hyatt and we stay at Comfort Inn," Hunter said. "Cincinnati eats at Ruth's Chris (steakhouse). ... We got to eat at Wendy's ... but by 2 pm on Friday. we'll be ready."

Sophomore D'Marcus Simonds earned the league's player of the year honors after averaging 20.9 points per game.

"He's going to be the next first-round pick at Georgia State," Hunter said. "How many mid-majors can have two first-round draft picks in three years? The last time I had a guy who was drafted in the first round who was the (Sun Belt) player of the year, I think we beat a team called Baylor."

"We have the exact same situation with D'Marcus right now, so we'll see what happens. I have all the respect in the world for Cincinnati, but I have a great deal of respect for the Georgia State Panthers."

The Panthers have made the tournament four times in its history and twice in the last four seasons.

The Bearcats are expecting a somewhat-friendly crowd in Nashville, about a four-hour drive from the UC campus; of course, with crosstown rival Xavier also playing its first-round games in Nashville, the Panthers may have some additional fans for the day.

"Last time we were there (in 2012), we won two and went to the Sweet 16," Cronin said. "We're excited.

"It's a great city. When I was at Murray State, that was our airport. ... I cut down the nets twice in Nashville as the head coach of the Racers. And like I said earlier, we won two there to go to the Sweet 16. So, Nashville's been pretty good to me."

The winner of Friday's contest gets either No. 7 Nevada or No. 10 Texas Sunday in the second-round.
