Mike Boone and his University of Cincinnati football teammates are taking a nothing-to-lose approach for this week's game at No. 8 Michigan, with the Bearcats naturally believing an upset is not impossible.
"I've got no doubt in my mind that we can go out and shock the world," senior running back Boone said Tuesday. "We're focused this week. Razor-sharp focus. We just want to come out and execute."
UC (1-0) is a 34 1/2-point underdog to the Wolverines (1-0), who jumped from No. 11 to No. 8 in this week's Associated Press Top 25 poll. The point spread jumped from 33 points Monday to 34 1/2 on Tuesday, with most of America expecting a cozy Michigan win.
