PISCATAWAY, N.J. – The UC Bearcats opened as a 1 1/2- to 2-point favorite to beat Rutgers here today, but the line since has swung in the Scarlet Knights’ favor. UC now is a 1 1/2-point underdog for today’s game here at noon.
UC (7-2, 4-1 American Athletic Conference) apparently has not impressed with its 2-2 road record. The Bearcats were upset at both Illinois and South Florida and had to battle for their two road wins, over Miami University and Memphis.
Rutgers (5-3, 2-2 AAC) has beaten UC for two straight years.

http://news.cincinnati.com/apps/pbcs.dll...140&Ref=PH is a glance at Gresh’s Gameplan and today’s prediction. For what it’s worth, I predicted UC to win every previous game this season. That did not exactly pan out, either.
– UC QB Brendon Kay enters as the national leader in completion percentage at 74.1, just ahead of Texas A&M star Johnny Manziel.
– The local weather forecast is perfect for mid-November in the Northeast: Sunny and 55 degrees at kickoff at High Point Solutions Stadium. Temperature is forecast to be between 55 and 57 degrees during the game, with no chance of rain.
