Thoughts on OU -14.5 @ Cincy?

[nj1035]

I'm thinking Cincinnati is the play here. OU tends to struggle on the road and Cincinnati is coming off a couple tough road losses themselves sandwiched in between an easy home win against Indiana State. I think they'll play well coming back home in a bounce back game for them.

As long as Cincinnati can protect Collaros (a big if) I think they'll have a pretty good shot at moving the ball on this OU defense.

However, if the OU that played FSU shows up they will blow out Cincy. Just don't see it happening on the road though.

What do you guys think?

I'm an OU fan and I would take Cincy plus 14.5 if I had to play the game.

That being said, I wouldn't play this one. I have no idea what OU team will show up.

The inability of Cincy to provide effective pressure on the passer is glaring after watching two of their contests.

Collaros seems to have a 4-route option tree that's the same on every play (Tunnel Screen, Curl, Seam steak to Woods, & "fvcking run").

I'm really surprised to see Butch Jones run such an inept offense with better athletes, regardless if it's still new-ish to his squad.

If Landry Jones can correct the problem that he had in the Air Force game of not waiting the 2 seconds when his receivers were even on defenders, lead them easily over the top, and not overthrow open targets, then I think Cincy's going to be in for long day.
