Cincinnati football schedule: Dates, times, TV channels for 2024 season

Cincinnati football suffered through its worst season since 1999 during the 2023 football season.

However, the Bearcats are looking to rebound under second-year coach Scott Satterfield after winning just one Big 12 conference game last season in their inaugural season in the conference. Indiana transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby is the favorite to be named the starter and leads an offense that returns five offensive linemen, its leading rusher in Corey Kiner and its top receiver, Xzavier Henderson.
