College Football Preview: 19. Cincinnati Bearcats

Cincinnati Bearcats, Number Nineteen, Key Loss: QB Tony Pike
The Bearcats biggest loss this off season wasn't quarterback Tony Pike. Nor was it wide receiver Mardy Gilyard. It was coach Brian Kelly who left to inherit the Notre Dame job. Though the offense is still skilled without Pike and Gilyard. Zach Collaros, who replaced Pike when he was injured last season. Collaros can pass and run for good yardage. He has some guys to pass to also. Armon Binns, an All Conference Selection returns, and tight end Ben Guidugli, another All Big East Selection returns in his final season. The O-Line is very strong also. The defense is dealing with quite alot of losses. But luckily linebacker J.K. Schaffer returns. But the defensive line is questionable. It got past some O-Lines but is trying to deal with some losses.

Heisman Hopeful: Zach Collaros
Other Notable Players: Armon Binns
Key Games: Sept. 25 vs. Oklahoma Quick Pick: In an offensive battle galore the Bearcats and Collaros will try to defeat the Sooners. Bearcats wins.
TBA vs. Pittsburgh Quick Pick: Dion Lewis can defeat opposing defenses with his running abilities as the Bearcats will try to stuff him up. Pittsburgh wins.
