I think Cincy opened a point and a half favorite. Yuuuuuuuge game for our program.

Alas I am not hopeful for this game. Our defense will be our downfall. 49-27 Cinn. I truly hope I am wrong.

Feels like a low scoring battle. Biggest game on the Hilltop in decades, with a ranked Pony team getting a chance at a top 10 win. So sad it can't be a raucous sellout.

I am not sure how a safety would happen in OT, unless there is a 75 yard sack, but I like your thinking. :D

Hopefully the game will be played. I can certainly see the Bearkats being in no hurry to get "well," and can see them wanting to duck a tough road matchup when they are so highly ranked.

What is the protocol? Is there actual proof and governance involved or does the league just take their word for it if they say they have too many positive tests/players in quarantine to travel to Dallas this week.

I also don't see how SMU both scores a field goal and surrenders a safety and wins the OT.

They've only played Army and their covid lungs will be gassed after one possession against our offense.

38-14 ponies

Not sure how this one ends up. But I'm thinking its going to be a shootout. Over should be around 80. We definitely have a great offense. I'm worried about our running game. Bentley is not an off-tackle runner and no one else has really stepped up. We have a very spotty defense which allows TD's on 3rd and 39s. We have to play lights out this week to win in my view.

Cincy has a dominant defense, but a meh offense. If this gets into a shootout, we win. They will completely shut down our run game. We need Osborne back and the line is going to need to play really well. If we get to 30 we win, but I think that is going to be a difficult ask. Must score touchdowns and not field goals. Use the screen game as the running game, both Bentley and the WR screen.
