It wasn’t that long ago that the Cincinnati Bearcats started a season 2-0. It was actually in 2016. At the end of that campaign, Tommy Tuberville was fired and the Bearcats had their worst record since 2010.
The 2018 Bearcats are 2-0 and now they’re trying to reach a mark they haven’t been able to attain since 2012. That would be starting 3-0. That 2012 team actually won its first five games of the year and wound up going 10-3 overall. It’s a bit early to have dreams of such a fantastic finish this time around, but after the Bearcats stomped UCLA and Miami-Ohio, its not as crazy as it once was.
