    In a brutal game of pushing the ball up and down a 100 yard field, the outcomes of games usually come down to the QB being able to get an extra fraction of a second to distribute the ball under pressure or a big breaking block to open up a lane for the RB. With UC return the entire offensive line and bringing in some beefy backups to push them, I think we have the makings of a team that could surprise the other teams. I don't think UC will win every game, but do think they'll be closer to 8-4 than 4-8.

    Here's a B12 predicted order of finish by our "buddy", former Sycamore Aviator, Stewart Mandel ($). Spoiler alert: He doesn't think much of the Bearcats.

    As I recall, the year we went to the Sugar Bowl, we were picked to finish 4th in the AAC. These
    early polls don't mean a whole lot.

    UC is #14 in the preseason media poll, ahead of only Houston and Arizona State https://x.com/Big12Conference/status...69164248322328

    Utah is #1, with Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Kansas, and Arizona also receiving first place votes (in case you're wondering, UCF is up at 8)

    Never mind. Open bottles of liquor in the car. 😬

    Dang. Hope he does well with second chance, no one is perfect.

    The AD at Houston just left his job. Right at the fiscal year turnover. Not sure what happened there but it looks like he got canned.
    Per Joseph Duarte of the Chronicle, AD Chris Pezman was fired. This apparently is related to lagging fundraising, but the biggest issue relates to a culture of intimidation by the softball coach. Pezman apparently was aware of it and did nothing about it.
