BYU vs. Cincinnati Prediction

The Cincinnati defense has trended downward over the past eight quarters of play, allowing 75 points and at least 475 yards per contest.

The biggest question is its ability to stop a BYU offense that mauls teams in standard downs with Bachmeier and Martin on the ground.

Considering the Bearcats' defensive struggles with inside zone read, there's an expectation that BYU will create multiple scoring opportunities.

Cincinnati sits outside the top 110 in Defensive Line Yards and Stuff Rate, which will be a big negative against the Cougars' ground attack.

The Bearcats had been feasting on Big 12 defenses until the injuries to Pryor and Goodie. Both players are expected to return to an offense that ranks fourth nationally in offensive momentum killer.

The Bearcats have been even better in scoring position, averaging 4.9 points on 61 possessions that crossed the opponent's 40-yard line.

BYU has been exploited on the ground by teams using inside zone, a primary run concept used by Cincinnati.

Cincinnati does run one of the faster offenses in FBS, averaging 24.5 seconds per play. With the Bearcats getting two explosive playmakers back on offense and BYU facing a softer rush defense, scoring opportunities should be abundant.

Although there are no Pryor rushing props in the market as of writing, he should get over his posted total considering the Cougars' poor zone-read defense.
