Cincinnati 24, West Virginia 21 (final)

Cincy has the better defense. No defense for WVU equals Bearcat blowout. 45-28 is my guess.

Cincy's run defense isn't that good... and WVU has a fairly strong run offense. If the Neers play keep away it could be a 28-21 game... but as posted somewhere else... Cincy 47- UCONN 45 wasn't a defensive struggle.

Devine has gone over 150 yards 3 times this season. The most impressive was against Auburn when he put up 207 on 17 carries. The other two times were against Syracuse and Louisville and he barely made it over 150 yards.

This game should be interesting.. If I'm Cinci, I'm really scared of Pitt, making this a potential look-ahead game. But that could be problematic if they let Devine run free. They'll have to play careful offense, because turnovers could very well decide this game.

Don't forget Illinois that's playing more like a bowl-bound Big Ten team than its current 3-6 record suggests. I don't see Cincy running the table....that defense looks a little too shaky to me. Which means? The Buckeyes should end up ranked higher than little sister....

Zero, and I mean ZERO pass rush from WVU. They look content to sit in a 3 man front bringing obviously blitzes then being blown off the ball when Cincy elects to run.


Unless Devine and Co. keep them off the field, Cincy by 3 TD's easy.
