Cincinnati Bearcats football

Let me pull it back up here.

Early in the season, he was a big – so here is Cincinnati, five catches.

Then he had Michigan, seven catches.

So he had some big games early, but the last handful of games, he had a catch – he had one against Northwestern, uh he had he had one against usc two against usc two against iowa one against utah so none against penn state like it's slowed down the end

what I was going to say is I think, like, you have been the person that I've heard pointing out, like, their goals during Luke Fickle's first season here as head coach was to win a national championship.

Obviously, they had those expectations because of his success at Cincinnati, and you think, God, looking back, it's like, oh.

But, like, they think that that success from that school is going to carry over to Wisconsin.

And, like, it's like, no, you're not actually a national contender.

They were more talented than everyone else.

They were a Fortune 500 company.

And honestly, for Cincinnati in the non-Power 5 conferences, they were kind of a team that just had more talent than everyone else.

It was just the beginning of NIL and a different level of recruiting that Cincinnati was better than most of the teams they faced.

Notre Dame in 31 here.

Cincinnati in 33 here.

At Notre Dame in 33.

At...

And then we play away in Oklahoma state of 15.

So we get a schedule a lot better than, I mean, it's a lot better.

I mean, I could dig this Arizona OU, um, Cincinnati.

I wish we could have did that this year instead of waiting to, um, 35, but you know, I think we can fill in some more games, especially after this stadiums get done and we can get back to the, uh, Nebraska football.

It's incredible.

They are not below a Cincinnati Duke and the dubious honor of being the lowest estimated roster in college football is Boston College.

Not necessarily a, I wouldn't call them a football powerhouse, but they've had some good seasons.

Matt Ryan went there, right? 8 million is their estimated low end.

The A's in Tampa Bay, bottom half of the first scoreless there.

About to go to the bottom half of inning number one.

The Reds and the Dodgers from Cincinnati.

Brewers partying hard last night.

That's rather impressive.

Cincinnati, of course, Nebraska playing them last year to a close game between 14 and 16 million.

Iowa State, Arizona, Kansas, Oklahoma State, another one coming off the victory this past weekend, taking on Oregon, who's one of the highest-paid rosters out there.

Oklahoma State reportedly working with between $15 and $19 million, so less than half of what Oregon had.

Look, your in-conference slate is not easy, but you've got some games you can win.

Now, if you can beat Northwestern on the road, Trev, between at Baylor, at Oklahoma State, home against K-State, at Arizona State, home against Houston, at Cincinnati, home against UCF, home against Texas Tech, home against Utah, you've only got to win three of those games to get to a bowl game.

You beat Northwestern this weekend.

You've matched your win total for last year and have done it with two powerful wins.

But I remember specifically after the Cincinnati game, the headline in Milwaukee was choked on a cupcake.

They lost to the Bearcats, a team that won three games all year.

And the following week, they lose to Michigan.

Ron Dane got shut out in the second half.

And then, you know, Sam Houston plays Nichols.

And so, you know, I think the Bearcats can – you know, Sam Houston deserves a shout.

They're 0-2.

But they're much improved.

Look, your in-conference slate is not easy, but you've got some games you can win.
