Sounds like that could be a big plus for the Bearcats!

Unfortunately I don't think voters do the math on things like this. My guess is Utah gets more votes than us despite us hammering an opponent they lost to.

That loss SHOULD drop UCLA from top 25, Utah is now 1-2 so doubt they will get more votes than Cincy

Normally I agree with you, but not this year. UC is getting a ton of respect. UC's demolition of Miami-OH will likely get us into the Top 30 faster then I thought. If we destroy Marshall we'll definitely be knocking on the door of the Top 25, especially if Oregon State keeps winning. And if UC destroys Marshall and then destroys San Diego St. on the road look out, I would expect UC to actually crack the Top 25!

I didn't realize Utah had two losses. I don't believe they'll get votes.

I always figured UCLA was way overrated, but getting sh!tkicked like this by the UTES is a surprise.
