This is a big game for UC, if the Bulls could somehow pull a miracle and beat the Knights....
From the Enqurier:
BCS watch
The Bearcats could wind up in a BCS Bowl, probably the Sugar Bowl, if things fall their way.
UC would earn the AAC’s BCS bid by beating Louisville and having Central Florida lose both of its remaining games. If Central Florida loses one of its remaining two games (against South Florida and SMU), the Bearcats probably would win a tiebreaker with Central Florida for the AAC title.
That is the word from BCS expert Jerry Palm of CBSSports.com.
“If they tie for the league title, there is a very high probability that Cincinnati would wind up ahead of Central Florida in the final BCS standings,” Palm said. “It would pretty much be a done deal.”
Central Florida (9-1, 6-0 AAC) plays host to South Florida (2-8, 2-4 AAC) on Friday night. Central Florida will be favored to win that game and also its season finale at SMU, which is 5-6 overall and 4-3 AAC.
UC entered Friday ranked No. 28 in the BCS standings, while Central Florida was No. 19. Louisville was No. 20.
The Sugar Bowl is Jan. 2 in New Orleans. Palm projects an Auburn-Central Florida matchup in the Sugar Bowl, and sees UC playing Mississippi State in the BBVA Compass Bowl on Jan. 4 in Birmingham.
