I never went further back than 1990. I said that, had I done so, the gap would widen. I still stand by this. Also, the gap widens if we only go fifteen years, rather than the strategically picked (by me) 1990. 1990 makes the two conferences look closer than they are.

Then, you said that Cincy is great historically, and added a Memphis title game appearance in 1973. That's when I had to go back further. 1980 widens the gap in favor of the C7. Gotta go back to 1958 before they get close again...

Right, the bold above is what I responded to. If you go back into the pre-history, I argued Cincy has a better record than any of the Catholics.
