Saturday night the Cincinnati Bearcats won the American Athletic Conference Championship by defeating the Tulsa Golden Hurricane at Nippert Stadium. A battle of Top 25 teams slugged it out on a rainy Cincinnati night. The offense had penalties that shot themselves in the foot in the red zone, but at the end of the day they pulled off the victory.
This unit had 420 total yards despite playing the second best defense in the AAC and a 28 day lay off. Going 5-of-14 on third down didn’t help causes, as well as going 0-of-1 on fourth down, that fourth down could’ve netted a chip shot field goal.
