Last week, I made the decision to rank Houston ahead of Cincinnati. The Bearcats kept having frustratingly close games, while Houston has been dominant. Well, Cincinnati seemed to figure things out and create a return to normalcy. That game from Cincinnati, hosting SMU, was far and away the most anticipated game of the week, but it was over before the first quarter was finished.
Elsewhere, ECU and Navy hooked up for the actual game of the week, with the Pirates winning on a last second kick. Houston and Memphis played a chippy game on Friday night.
