In this story:

CINCINNATI — The Week 1 PFF grades are live for Cincinnati after a 38-20 win over Towson. The Bearcats earned a 90.4 team grade and were led on defense by DT Harris Adams (80.1 grade on 10 snaps), DE Kameron Wilson (79 grade on 34 snaps), and FS Antwan Peek Jr. (78.5 grade on 24 snaps).

Offensively, Cincinnati had the highest marks from TE Joe Royer (83.5 grade on 39 snaps), RB Evan Pryor (77.1 grade on 14 snaps), and LT Evan Tengesdahl (76.7 grade on 14 snaps).

The Ohio State duo led the way for Cincinnati's offense as Royer and Pryor looked like serious weapons Cincinnati could use all season. At quarterback, Brendan Sorsby played well with a 75.8 grade to rank fifth on the offense.

He notched two big-time throws in the game and had an 80% adjusted completion rate factoring in two drops from his receivers. Check out the full grades here.

UPDATE: The grades have since been adjusted by PFF following this writing.
