Cincinnati Bearcats Football Keys to the Game: West Virginia Mountaineers

A heated rivalry adds an outing this weekend when the West Virginia Mountaineers come to town to face Cincinnati football. WVU is likely missing its starting quarterback due to injury and enters as four-point betting underdogs for the 22nd meeting between the two schools.

“Last year against West Virginia toward the end of the season, we were not playing great. We go three-and-out, then they go score, we go three-and-out, and then they go score. It was just a snowball in the first half, and you look up and you'redown 28 to seven before you can even blink," Satterfield said. "And we didn't do hardly anything right. This week we'relooking on the defensive side as a different defense for us. We're not the same.

Dive deeper into the traditional stats and it's not hard to see why the Mountaineers made a defensive coordinator change midseason: 132nd in yards per pass allowed , 115th in passing TDs allowed , and yards per game allowed . It's a complete mess on the backend. All while Cincinnati has a healthy protection group up front for Sorsby.

WVU is much better against the run, ranking 40th in rushing EPA allowed and 26th in success rate. UC shouldn't abandon the run by any means, but a heavier pass diet will play into WVU's weaknesses and it could be perfectly timed with Sorsby feeling healthier after a week off.Stronger tackling, plus a precise game from Mason Fletcher will set up Cincinnati for a win on Saturday.
