(8) Cincinnati 34 - (21) South Florida 17 : Cincinnati did exactly what they needed to down in Tampa on Thursday night. The Bearkats handed the Bulls not only their first conference loss but their first loss of the season. The only drawback of this big victory was that it came at a price. Starting QB Tony Pike took a hit at the very beginning of the second half and left the game with an injury to the same forearm he injured last season. Pike leaves one of the hottest teams in the nation without their senior leader and his return is uncertain. His backup, QB Zach Collaros, immediately made an impact by running for a 75 yard TD after entering the game for Pike. Collaros finished the game 4-7 for 72 yards and a pick while running for 132 yards and 2 TDs. Cincy debuted on the BCS polls today at number 5.
