Way Too Early Prediction

Had this game been in Memphis again, I would be a little worried but the Tigers are still a couple of years away from consistently challenging the top of the AAC. Head coach Justin Fuente is getting them there but it’s going to take some time. As such I don’t see the Bearcats losing the matchup with them this season especially considering it’s being played on their “home” turf. Cincinnati will win by a touchdown or more.
