Pitt losing took some of the luster off this one for me. Tony Pike has been so on Im not sure Pitt can stay within 17 if they dont play perfectly.

This may end up being the game of the day! What a game this was. Pitt jumps out to a huge lead, Kelly damn near benches Pike, Pike responds and leads the Bearcats to a remarkable victory to stay undefeated and win the Big east. Keeps their dim NC hopes alive as well.

Marty Gilyard had 374 total yds for Cincy and was easily the MVP of this game. On the other side, Dion Thomas had 47 carries for almost 200 yds!

This was an instant classic for sure!

Congrats Bearcats!

One hell of a football game.
