Tulsa vs. Cincinnati updates: Live NCAA Football game scores, results for Saturday
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Tulsa vs. Cincinnati football game
The Tulsa Golden Hurricane are 1-4 against the Cincinnati Bearcats since November of 2015, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Saturday. Tulsa and Cincinnati will face off in an American Athletic battle at 7 p.m. ET at Skelly Field at H.A. Chapman Stadium. The Bearcats should still be riding high after a big win, while the Golden Hurricane will be looking to right the ship.
Tulsa came up short against the Ole Miss Rebels last week, falling 35-27. Despite the defeat, Tulsa got a solid performance out of WR Isaiah Epps, who snatched two receiving TDs.
Meanwhile, Cincinnati made easy work of the Indiana Hoosiers last week and carried off a 45-24 victory. The team accrued 38 points in the first half and coasted on those for the victory. The Bearcats' WR Tyler Scott was on fire, catching ten passes for three TDs and 185 yards. Ben Bryant's 75-yard touchdown toss to Scott in the first quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the afternoon.
Cincinnati's defense was a presence as well, as it got past the Hoosiers' offensive line to sack QB Connor Bazelak five times for a total loss of 49 yards. Leading the way was LB Ivan Pace Jr. and his 2.5 sacks. Pace Jr. now has 4.5 sacks this season.
The Golden Hurricane are expected to lose this next one by 9.5. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread, however, as they are currently on a two-game streak of ATS wins.
Tulsa is now 2-2 while Cincinnati sits at 3-1. A couple offensive stats to keep an eye on: Tulsa comes into the matchup boasting the fourth most passing yards per game in the nation at 358.5. Cincinnati has displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they enter the game with 20 overall offensive touchdowns, good for ninth best in the nation.
