What about whacking around SMU 42-13 and Memphis by 39 didn’t you like?
Cincinnati is 5-0 with all five wins by 14 points or more, and now you’re giving away just 13 to Houston.
It’s hardly a crazy-off line – this is a good enough Cougar team to put up a fight – but until the Bearcat streak stops, you keep on riding.
Houston is fine. It rolled past Tulane and Navy, but got rocked by BYU by 17 and rolled by UCF by 23 – Cincinnati is at least as good, if not better, than BYU and UCF.
Houston’s run defense has allowed progressively more yards each week, including 353 against UCF last week. The Cincinnati line is as good as any the Cougars have faced, and the ground game has cranked up 744 yards and ten touchdowns over the last three games.
And now the Bearcats are at home.
