Let f (n) be the minimum number of cycles present in a 3-connected cubic graph on n vertices. In 1986, C. A. Barefoot, L. Clark, and R. Entringer (Congr. Numer. 53, 1986) showed that f (n) is subexponential and conjectured that f (n) is superpolynomial. We verify this by showing that, for n sufficie
