When the Cincinnati Bearcats play the SMU Mustangs this Saturday, they will be doing something they haven’t had to do yet this season: bounce back from a loss. The 6-1 Bearcats are still having a year that has surpassed expectations, but a roadblock in Philadelphia hampered them a bit.
Now, each game is more important since any chance at an American Athletic Conference title will require a pretty much perfect finish to the campaign. To get that run started, and avoid a *gulp* losing streak, the Bearcats will need to win in these five matchups.
