In reply to: I think we would beat them. But I don't expect to be playing posted by Raoul

They haven't looked great lately, but my feeling is they are worn down to an extent because they don't have tons of depth. We could play them next week and win.

The problem with playing them again is they would get a month's rest before a bowl game and have plenty of time to recharge. They are also well coached as we have seen. To say the game wouldn't be close is disrespectful to them and overrates our offense. Left tackle is not a huge problem anymore but the rest of the line (particularly Madden and Lugg) are not that good.

I don't think Cincy belongs on the field with Georgia, Alabama or Ohio State, but neither do we.

Good point on wearing down. That is the one advantage - Raoul 2021-11-15 18:10:19
