CINCINNATI — The Bearcats got great production out of Brendan Sorsby on Saturday. Cincinnati's quarterback broke down his overall thoughts on the Towson performance after getting a few days to go over the tape (22-31 for 383 yards and two touchdowns in the 38-20 win).

Sorsby led Cincinnati to the fifth-most total yards in the country so far this season (658).

"Felt really good operationally out there," Sorsby told the media on Tuesday. "Still think I could be a little bit smarter decision making-wise, obviously, just knowing the situation, knowing that you don't always have to force some stuff, and just take what the defense is giving to you. Everything will end up working out if you just do that. And like I said on Saturday, that we left a lot of points on the field, and I still believe that after watching the film, obviously, we watched the film on the sideline as well after every drive but still the same feedback from from Coach (Pete) Thomas, and just talking with him. Just take what they give you and we'll be good."

All in all, the sophomore posted a 75.8 PFF grade on the day, good for the fifth-best mark on offense.

"We just try to go through it with the way we see it as coaches, and what we're looking for," head coach Scott Satterfield said about watching film with Sorsby. "Depending on what the play is, we're looking at this certain thing. If he does this, then we're going to do that, you know. And really kind of coach through that. And on Saturday, it was good to see, because whenever he came off, 'Hey, what'd you see?' And he would tell you what it was."

Cincinnati's offense gets to follow things up with a Pittsburgh matchup on Saturday at 12 p.m. ET on ESPN2.
