The University of Cincinnati men's basketball team needs one more win to advance to the NCAA Tournament.

The Bearcats, who have won a record eight straight American Athletic Conference tournament games, look to keep the streak going Sunday in the AAC championship game.

After edging top-seeded Wichita State in the semifinals on Saturday, Cincinnati (12-10) now faces second-seeded Houston (23-3).

Senior guard Keith Williams, who did not play in the second half Saturday due to undisclosed reasons, gets the start for the Bearcats. Williams is joined by freshman Mike Saunders Jr., sophomore Mika Adams-Woods, former Moeller High School standout Jeremiah Davenport and 7-foot-1, 260-pound center Chris Vogt.
