UC 5 Takeaways from Bearcats Stunning Win
Quote
The Bearcats' third straight road game will mark another stiff test. The perennially underrated Midshipmen have posted winning records in 13 of the last 14 years, and coach Ken Niumatalolo is among the best (79-42 record, in his 11th year at Navy).

From here, the game appears to be a toss-up. It would be a huge road win should UC pull it off, and would set up a winnable non-league home game against Marshall on Sept. 30. Marshall (2-1) beat the visiting Miami RedHawks 31-26 in a season opener.

I think there will be a very large crowd at this game. Three weeks on the road and one previous home game against Austin Peay.  We'll see.

If you have any tailgating locations or suggestions please share them. From what I recall on our last few visits to UC actual space for tailgating is very limited. Most parking is in garages which limits what you can do for a tailgate.

Here is an option for those interested:

Man, that Miami Ohio collapse is hard to watch. If it happened to just about anyone else, I'd feel bad for them.

Agree, that was something to ponder for a long time.  Feel for the players...somewhat anyway.

I listened to the end of that game on my drive back to Columbus after the Kent game. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Malik Clements Has Arrived
Clements sealed a victory for the Bearcats and put himself on the map in the process.

Quote
It all started in the opener against Austin Peay. The UC defense had to do everything in its power to ensure the offense would be in a position to pull out a win. Even though the Bearcats allowed more than 200 yards on the ground, they did complete their mission. Clements’ tackling ability played a major part in that.

UC-Navy: Instant analysis as Bearcats cough up 569 rushing

Quote
UC allowed a program-record 569 yards rushing and lost 42-32 to Navy, on a sunny afternoon at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. The Midshipmen ran their patented triple-option to near perfection, led by quarterback Zach Abey with 128 yards rushing and two touchdowns.

"I know we didn't play well defensively, and it's embarrassing," UC coach Luke Fickell said. "But there's a lot of growth being made. We'll continue to grow, and we'll get better because of this."

In 129 previous seasons of UC football, the record for most rushing yards allowed had been 539 by Northern Illinois in 1989. That was the final game of the inaugural Tim Murphy coaching season, a 56-3 Bearcats loss at Nippert Stadium.

Looks as if tackling needs to be in the forefront of this week's preparations.
Almost every big play against Navy started as a missed tackle.

Post by: QuickStrike on September 24, 2017, 10:45:37 AM
Navy rushed for 569 yards using the option.  Anyone think Legg will add any option plays to the offense, or let XGaines take some snaps with the option to run it?  Chase actually running the ball a few times could keep their defense honest.

Rested, recuperated and ready for Cincinnati

Quote
The team already has three big games under its belt and a fourth one upcoming, but the players now have the time to catch their breath and study the Bearcats.
“Any time with an open date, you have to concentrate on yourself and get better as a football team, so we will focus on that this week. We will continue to break down Cincinnati tape and get going on them on Monday night. But most of the work this week is on us getting better as a team.” Holliday said.

I have a good feeling about this one for some reason. This is a realistic opportunity to come home with a W.

This thread seems to have a little more discussion about the matchup with the Herd. Their fans are counting this game as a dub.
