Bearcats lose, a real disapointment...

Rough game for the bearcats... Nothing else to do except pack it up and try again next week... In desperate need of a QB thank god for in-season recruting! Bearcats were really upset about this loss, we expected a blowout against this team... We have to forget about this one thoughe we have a rough game coming up next week, and it is away also... Got some signs of life in offense... But the 4 turnovers changed the game, got so bad I had to put in my backup QB... Two of my touchdowns were off punt returns, but still the loss remains on the schedule...

Eastern Michigans QB was hot in the 2nd half going 6 for 8 with 3 TD passes... Emabarissing loss can't wait to get this team next year... My OL forgot to bring their game today, allowing 11 sacks (seemd like more)... In conclusion the better team won this battle... If we got torn up against a team like this, I can only imagine what kind of damage a team like Penn State will do to us... Going to have to bring our A game if we dont want to be blown out by halftime...

Final Score: Eastern Michigan 63, Cincinnati 45

Bearcats humiliated at Penn State...

As I expected it was going to be a tough game for my Bearcats... In the second quarter I was already down 21-3... With 2 minutes left in the second I began to march down the field, called a PA Read and threw it up for six... Down by 11 they throw a pass to the flats and take it 40 yards for a TD, down by 18 once again... 3rd Quarter was slow, nothing but interceptions back to back... Penn State puts up aa field goal to go up 31-10, I drive up to the 44 only to get held to a punt... Back to back 3 and outs to end this action filled quarter... But things only got worse for the Bearcats

Penn State kicks a field goal and goes up 34-10, I march up to the 10 only to throw a pick that they return for a TD... Penn State is now up 41-10, and are now up to 21 un-answered points... Make that 28 and add a record breaking 77 yd TD pass, down 48-10 with a minute left I decide to run he rest of the game out.... Penn State showed up to this game, and boy did it look like they wanted to play, Their QB got injured twice but remained in the game... Wonder what could have happened if he wasnt there? Coach riTzy better hope for a win next week, or his job may be on the line...

Final Score: Cincinnati 10, Penn State 48

Next week - Western Carolina at Cincinnati Bearcats

Bearcats find a W!

This game got off to a very slow start, no points touched the scoreboard until the second quarter... My QB decided to play today, our first points were off his 62 yard TD pass... Then the defense holds and my QB comes through again with a 31 yard TD pass... Finally WCU marches down the field, hoeld to a third down on my 6 yard line, they run it in for their first points of the game... Immidaietly after that score, my special teams decides to help out the team, my CB #6 returns a 91 yard TD reurn off the kick... So I'm pretty confident going into half 21-7, but wait they throw a 47 yard TD pass with 0 seconds left till half what a bummer...

First play of my drive WCU ties the game up with a 29 yard interception return for 6, not a great way to start the half... My QB must have been upset, because he decided to come back that next drive and throw a 72 yard TD pass... I intercept the ball at their 33 they hold me to a field goal, Cincinnati leads 31-21, I get the ball back from a punt and throw a 16 yard TD pass, I now lead 38-21... Then when I thought that things couldnt get any better, I return a 29 yard interception return for 6, now im up 45-21... I later go on to get a punt return, they kick a field goal, then they score a TD... Finally we win!

Final Score: Western Carolina 31, Cincinnati 52

Bearcats Win 2 in a Row...

This game started off bad for the Bearcats throwing a interception whcih Miami U returned for a TD... Then miraculously I blocked a punt and caused a safety, then it got even better after we returned a 78 yard interception return... 2nd quarter 9-7, QB #18 throws a 14 yard TD pass, and Miami U responds with a 6 yard TD pass... Running game kicked ion on our next possesion, and ended up with a 9 yard TD run, but that got blown out of the way by Miami U's 81 yard TD pass, and the next drive threw a 61 yard TD pass...

Going into the third quarter we travel 23-27, until we throw a 31 yard TD pass... We hold them only to fumble and them to pick it up and return it for six points... Miami U's QB strikes again with a 54 yard TD pass, I think my QB was sick of him and he decided to throw a 57 yard TD pass of his own... Next poseesion we safety them again, score: Miami U 41, Cincinnati 40... Again the special teams unit helps themself to a 76 yard punt return, then the following drive what do you know another safety... Cincinnati kicks a FG to seal the deal, Two in a Row Baby!

Final Score: Cincinnati 51, Miami U 41

Bearcats Extend Streak to 3

Cincinnati has started to get their game together, coming through with a big win at Pittsburgh... Pretty slow game, started off with a FG by Pittsburgh, then they returned a 13 yard fumble for six... After those two incidents the Bearcats started playing lockdown defense by not giving up anymore points the rest of the game, Cin responded with a 3 yard TD run, followed by a 4 yard TD run... Followed up by a 14 yard TD run putting them up 21-10, That was pretty much all the action of the game today, and it was all i the 1st half of this ball game...

2nd Half was the most broing of the entire season... Cincinnati immdiately put up a 50 yard TD pass to put them up 28-10... A couple turnovers here and there but mostly it was alot of three and outs... I put in my second team and wasnt able to put up any points... The Bearcats are happy with this victory, as it is their first victory over a Top 25 team this year, and it was sort of a blowout... Pittsburgh didnt put up any points since the first quarter, and they didnt have any offensive TDs!

Final Score: Cincinnati 28, Pittsburgh 10

Will They Ever Lose Again?

Cincinnati has continued on their path to greatness, obviously that 0-2 start was only a wake up call for the Bearcats... We strike first with a 3 yard TD run by my FB, a nice defensive stop gets me the ball back and I threw a 43 yard TD Pass... Connecticut didnt want to go into the half without answering back, they take a 101 yard kickoff return for six... We immediately answer back with a 31 yard TD pass, we are now up 21-7... Connecticut breaks it open and marches downfield, only to get held to a goal line stand, so they settled for 3 points to put them down by 11... I march back up and kick a FG, 24-10 going into half...

2nd Half, looks like Connecticut is still trying, they immediately march down the field to get held to a FG (again)... We are up 24-13, a hail mary gets me all the way downfield to their 10 yard line, but they decide to play defense this time around a hold me to a FG putting the score at 27-13... Somehow they broke a 66 yard TD run to put it at 27-20, but consecutive stops on defense lead to a victory for the Bearcats...

Final Score: Connecticut 20, Cincinnati 27
