Memphis ruined senior night for the Bearcats with a 34-7 beating on Friday night. The loss ensures the Bearcats won’t be playing in a bowl game this year, and cements 2016 as their worst season since 2010. Here’s what happened in the rest of the league.
Houston’s Steven Taylor saved the best performance of his senior year for the biggest stage by racking up 14 tackles, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble in Houston’s 36-10 victory over No. 5 Louisville. Houston scored 31 points in the first quarter, thanks in large part to an unrelenting defense that sacked Heisman hopeful Lamar Jackson 11 times.
