It may not seem possible, given who the opponent is, but the Cincinnati Bearcats are getting a bit of a reprieve this week. At least that’s what it would seem like since the 7-1 Bearcats are facing 2-6 Navy. That’s a pretty stunning sentence to write and not because UC is doing well. Instead, it is the Midshipmen and their awful 2018 campaign that makes this Saturday’s matchup one of oddly divergent programs.
The discussion about whether or not UC (7-1, 3-1 American Athletic Conference) is a good team ended weeks ago. At this point, we’re still just trying to figure what level of good the Bearcats are.
