The Cincinnati Bearcats travel to Salt Lake City, Utah, next week to take on the No. 24-ranked Utah Utes. The game will be featured on ESPN's College Gameday, the first time the Bearcats have made an appearance since they played Houston in the American Athletic Conference Championship in 2021, and the first time since 2023 for the Utes.
This game is one of three ranked matchups next week, the other two matchups being the Oklahoma Sooners and the Tennessee Volunteers, and the Vanderbilt Commodores and the Texas Longhorns.
The Utes are coming off a dominant win against the Colorado Buffaloes, and the Bearcats a 20-point victory over the Baylor Bears.
