This week in Cincinnati talk

The shows spent the week on Cincinnati's home dominance, with the Bearcats dismantling Texas Tech and then knocking off defending champ Texas. Now they're eyeing Utah as vulnerable this weekend, pointing to the Utes' recent close wins, the distraction of facing BYU next week, and Cincinnati's dangerous home field. Most hosts are taking Cincinnati plus the points, though there's some debate about whether the Bearcats' offensive line can handle Utah's run defense.
