State of the AAC: Teams begin final push

With the American Athletic Conference having only three weeks left in conference play, AAC title contenders look to make their final push of the season as No.17 Houston punched their ticket to the Championship game.

Let’s take a look at how each team fared this past weekend:

No. 5 Cincinnati (10-0, 6-0 AAC) at South Florida (2-8, 1-5 AAC)

After several weeks of contested matchups for Cincinnati, the team came back into top 10 form after routing USF 45-28 on the road.

Despite the Bulls getting on the board first with a touchdown midway through the first quarter, the Bearcats responded in dominant fashion with 24 unanswered points to go up 24-7 at half time.
