Cincinnati Bearcats Football Keys To The Game: UCF Knights
The Bearcats football team is fresh off its bye week and looking to avoid back-to-back losses for the first time this season. UCF is up next trying to break their own two-game losing streak.
Cincinnati enters the game as a three-point betting underdog and boasts a 42.6% chance to win on ESPN's Matchup Predictor. Let's dive into the keys to victory for this road matchup.UC quarterback Brendan Sorsby has been fantastic this season and it'll have to continue this week. The sophomore ranks 14th nationally in ESPN's QBR metric, plus, leads all Big 12 passers in rating while completing 66.3% of his attempts.
Rushing will be much tougher. Sorsby may have to add more with his legs on scrambles against a unit allowing the 23rd-best EPA/rush mark nationally and the fourth-best rushing success rate. They allow just 90 rush yards per game . Cincinnati is a horrific run-defending team, going up against one of the best rushing attacks in the nation . UCF's only thrown it 118 times for a reason .
