No. 3 Cincinnati could take another step toward a possible CFP berth when they clash with No. 16 Houston in the American Athletic championship game on Saturday night. If they make the CFP, the Bearcats would be the first non-Power 5 team to crack the playoff in the seven-year history of the tournament.
