Desmond Ridder, quarterback
Ridder didn’t play his best game, but he was able to make all the plays the Bearcats needed with his feet and arm during a rainy Saturday night. The AAC Offensive Player of the Year handled business in one of the biggest games in program history. The quarterback is now ingrained as a legend in this program no ifs, ands or buts.
He went 19-of-29 passing for 269 yards and a touchdown. He also had 16 carries for a team high 83 yards and a touchdown. Ridder went for 352 total yards and two touchdowns. He claimed the AAC Championship Game MVP! LEGEND!
