In all sincerity, I'm a fan of Coach Fritz. To do what he's done at Tulane is nothing short of miraculous. He's a good man. Nothing but respect to him and to how he runs a program. Big game folks. HUGE game Friday at 12 noon on prime time.

Weekly pressers from two great coaches...

Can't wait to watch. Good luck to both teams, although I would not like to see UCF go to UC in the cold weather if UCF was the opponent.

I expect Cincy to win this but I'll be rooting for Tulane since UCF will be able to turn Yulman Stadium into a UCF Home Game again.

The game is sold out.

11 straight sellouts.

Last regular season AAC game for Cincinnati ever!!!

Would be a fun Big12 intro 2.0 to get the CCG at Nippert

UC has won four straight against Tulane. I hope the Bearcats take this team seriously They look legit even if the name on the front of the Jersey seems to be at odds with football success

Should be a great game!

Tulane blew a chance earlier against UCF and they got let off the hook.

Losing this game will be fatal.

I actually like our odds here - UCF did some things on offense that Tulane hadn't seen all season long.

The good new about Fritz is that he's 62, and he's a builder type in a world full of microwaved success. I think we are his last job unless Kansas calls

Tulane should have a huge mental edge in terms of emotion. Cincy has conference titles,home winning streak multiple New Years 6 bowl invites and a CFP semi final appearance. Cincy headed to big 12 and all AAC leftovers would LOVE to see an AAC for life team beat Cincy who is heading for greener pastures in the Big 12 with all the money, exposure and excitement that will bring. Will UC defend its home turf against a highly disrespected Tulane team?

I think UC loses this one, unfortunately. They can't Run and have trouble stopping the run. We're also unsure of which QB it will be. I think Prater could be a disaster.

Help us Nippert, you are our only hope. I wish it was a cold snowy night game.

I think you might be correct. UC coming off a year playing for a CFP invite. Playing Tulane for the chance to host an AAC title game just doesn’t bring the juice

CFP have been very kind to Tulane this year, and we get some very good media attention for a mid major.

The talking heads seem to WANT this Tulane team to be good.

Midmajor is a bball term. And the AAC has never been considered that. Next year may be a different story.

I've been one of the few since Tulane was added to the AAC to stand by Dr. Hitt's recommendation for you guys' add. The only things Tulane are missing is P5 athletic commitment and a fanbase. The former clearly is in the works, which will only help the latter.

Cinci 1 point favorite.

“Defense wins championships” narrowing the line down from -2

Would be great for aac narrative for a non defector to win the conference. What a way to make it to the CCG than against a Latinate the defending champion @ home with a sold out crowd to snap their home winning streak. Going to be a great game ! Rolll Wave !

Ps Most UCF fans are absolutely awful. Would be fun to have another crack at them and shut their mouths. I think it will be a very different outcome this time around
