In the Cotton Bowl as a whole the offense stayed in Clifton, whether it was the game plan, missed opportunities or the Alabama defense it turned out to be the worst offensive performance of the season as the group only tallied 218 yards. Cincinnati went 2-of12 on third down and 0-of-3 on fourth down. Desmond Ridder was sacked six times on Friday, which was a season high as well.
The dream season is over, but let’s see who received game balls for their Cotton Bowl performance!
