Cincinnati vs. Oklahoma: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAA Football game

The Oklahoma Sooners and the Cincinnati Bearcats will face off in a Big 12 clash at 12:00 p.m. ET on September 23rd at Nippert Stadium. The two teams might be coming in a bit winded given how much these teams ran in their prior games.

Last Saturday, Oklahoma really took it to Tulsa for the full four quarters, racking up a 66-17 victory on the road. The matchup was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 38-14.

QB Dillon Gabriel had a stellar game as he threw for 421 yards and five touchdowns. Gabriel is on a roll when it comes to passer rating, as he's now posted a passer rating of 170 or more in the last three games he's played. It was a true group effort though, as the team also got help from WR Nic Anderson, who picked up 120 receiving yards and three touchdowns.

Meanwhile, Cincinnati fought the good fight in their overtime game against Miami of Ohio on Saturday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. Cincinnati took a 31-24 hit to the loss column at the hands of Miami of Ohio. Cincinnati didn't live up to their potential and found themselves falling short of the advantage oddsmakers thought they had coming into the game.

QB Emory Jones put forth a good effort for the losing side as he threw for 265 yards on 18 of 34 attempts, and also rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown. RB Ryan Montgomery also helped out as he racked up 104 rushing yards.

Looking forward to Saturday, Oklahoma shouldn't be too worried about this matchup, as the experts have them favored by 14.5 points. They might be worth a quick bet since they've covered the spread the last three times they've played Cincinnati.

Oklahoma's win lifted them to 3-0 while Cincinnati's loss dropped them down to 2-1. We'll see if Oklahoma can repeat their recent success, or if Cincinnati bounce back and reverse their fortunes.
