The numbers don't lie: Cincinnati can't beat BYU with championship implications

BYU football is gearing up for another meeting with Cincinnati. The BYU Cougars enter this game ranked 11th in the country, but outside the College Football Playoff. BYU has a strong team this year, and the Bearcats may struggle to keep up. BYU is among the leaders in the country when it comes to takeaways, and they can punish opponents for mistakes, often turning takeaways into points. BYU's electric offense, led by true freshman Bear Bachmeier, will be a strong test for Cincinnati.

BYU is 9-1. Cincinnati is 7-3. BYU's LJ Martin has 912 rushing yards compared to Tawee Walker's 652 yards.
