Summary
Hudson Klauke and Eric Lilly preview the Cincinnati Bearcats defense entering the 2026 college football season. New defensive coordinator Nate Woody is bringing an aggressive, pressure-heavy scheme designed to create more sacks, force more turnovers and generate the havoc UC’s defense has lacked in recent years. They discuss how Woody plans to disguise pressure and send defenders from every level of the field, the importance of Antwan Peek Jr. in his new hybrid role, Jonathan Thompson and the Bearcats’ talented linebacker room, and whether Marquaze Parker can lead a revamped defensive front without Dontay Corleone. Hudson and Eric also break down a retooled secondary featuring transfers MJ Cannon, Kenny Worthy, Jacob Finley and Jasper Beeler. After Cincinnati recorded only two interceptions last season, can Woody’s new defense give the Bearcats’ offense more possessions and help UC make a jump in the Big 12?
