The Bearcats are firing on all cylinders with a brutal non-conference slate in 2026-27, led by first-year coach Jerrod Calhoun and an all-transfer roster. Facing powerhouses like Xavier, Clemson, and Kansas, they’re already ranked 42nd in Torvik’s preseason poll—and stepping into the Big 12 means battling elite coaching talent. With exhibition games against Ohio State and Illinois, plus key home and road matchups, this team is building chemistry while proving they can compete at the highest level. All eyes are on Cincinnati to see if this new era can make a deep NCAA Tournament run.
