UC vs BYU

[UCBearcats]

I have no clue what to expect on Friday. I'll let my heart pick this one.

UC - 35

BYU - 24

I can't tell how good BYU actually is...they've played good teams, but they've also had close game with AAC teams (they beat UConn by 17 but it was 10-10 through 3Q).

If Kiel starts:
UC 27
BYU 38

If Moore starts
UC 34
BYU 31

A Gunner pick 6 being the difference.

Personally, I think that BYU has an advantage over other teams. BYU players are much older due to religious obligations during their tenure at the school. Many are 23-24-25 years old playing against many on UC that are 18-19-20. Most would agree that is a huge advantage.

Cincinnati 35
BYU-31

I don't think that is necessarily a good or bad thing and I believe you can choose when to take your mission(correct me if I'm wrong) plus even though someone is 21 years old as a freshmen, they still have as much experience as our 18-19 year old freshmen. I don't think it makes a huge difference.

Looks like Moore is getting the start.

Loved the 4th and goal call. Why the FG though?? You are dominating them defensively and you give them the ball at midfield?

5 sacks already? I hope we can keep Moore healthy.

 

[UCalum08]

Great tip interception. Need to get a TD to make it really count.

 

[UCalum08]

I never realized how much we struggle to score TD's in the red zone til tonight. But then Boone comes through!

Boone is a touchdown machine. Good to have him back.

Do we have any good D-line recruits coming?

 

[UCalum08]

God, our defense makes my eyes bleed. Will we ever have a respectful defense again? All BYU has to do is throw the ball 20 yards. Our DB's don't see the ball and are always out of position. If BYU doesn't catch it, they get free yards with all the PI calls. Sad..

This is what college football is. BTW they've given up 10 points so far in the half to a team that averages like 35 a game...

It's pretty sad, BYU QB is clearly not 100% healthy and we didn't touch him once all half. Our corners will get burnt no matter what so why not bring some pressure?

UC has been very lucky to only have given up 10 points. Think how they have given up those 10 points. It's gross.

Doesn't matter. With our offense, getting one turnover and 2 or 3 three-and-outs and we should win most games.

Offsides?
