The bye week has come and gone and its back to work for the Cincinnati Bearcats, who will travel to face the Tulane Green Wave in American Athletic Conference action on Saturday afternoon in New Orleans.
Cincinnati (2-6, 0-4 AAC) has lost five-straight games and is clinging to its bowl chances by the thinnest of threads. The Bearcats are just 1-3 on the road this season, with that lone victory coming against rival Miami-Ohio on Sept. 16. That was also the last time they won a game at all.
Tulane (3-5, 1-3) is fighting its own uphill battle to get to the postseason.
