Bearcats Hang on at 25 in AP Poll

The Cincinnati Bearcats remain in the AP Top 25, falling a spot to 25. The voters seemed to cut the Bearcats a little slack after the tough loss a day ago to Villanova. The Bearcats are one of 8 Big East teams that are ranked, as Louisville jumped back in the poll. The Cards beat Seton Hall and South Florida and come back at 18. That’s a little odd. Anyway, the Bearcats will have a number by the name as they play host to South Florida Wednesday and go to Syracuse on Saturday. Hopefully being ranked a second week will keep the team motivated, and let them know that the nation’s voters didn’t completely give up on them.
