Given the tremendous turnover on that side of the ball (only three returning starters from last year’s team), the unit could continue to improve as the season progresses. It's a top-50 unit, using a balanced attack spearheaded by dual-threat quarterback in Emory Jones. The Scott Satterfield offense looks fine. The Bearcats scored three points in their final four trips inside the red zone (!). In Week 4, Cincinnati generated six points off six scoring opportunities (!). The Bearcats generated a higher EPA per Play (0.09 to 0.01) and a much higher Success Rate (46% to 35%). In Week 3, Cincinnati outgained Miami (OH) 538 to 358 in yards, generating 14 more first downs (30 to 16) and three more scoring opportunities (7 to 4). Those are two of the most misleading box scores of the season. My case for Cincinnati here is simple: The Bearcats are tremendously undervalued entering Week 5.Ĭincinnati enters this game off back-to-back losses against Miami (OH) and Oklahoma. ![]()
