AAC update: Only two undefeated teams remain after Cincinnati falls
Andres Chio/The CougarWeek eight of the NCAA football season went as planned in much of the American Athletic Conference, but there was one big loss and a near upset.
Cincinnati lost in overtime to Temple, which is now 4-0 in conference after going 1-3 to start the season, and fell out of the Top 25.
Cincinnati’s defense played well as usual, but the offense could not get anything going through the air in Temple’s home stadium.
Temple won the conference in 2016 but had a mixed 2017. Temple now enters the murderers row of the conference schedule with games against No. 10 UCF, Houston and No. 20 South Florida up next in the schedule.
