Former Bearcat says Cincinnati ‘will beat’ Alabama in CFP Semifinal Game

Cincinnati feels it belongs in the College Football League.

The Bearcats are the lone undefeated team in the field, and Luke Fickell wants a national championship. As champions of the American Athletic Conference, Cincinnati is highly confident. The team will wear black for Friday’s College Football Playoff Semifinal matchup versus Alabama at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Avery Johnson, a former Bearcat, is declaring a victory for his Alma mater on Twitter. He hails from South Florida, but Johnson initially chose Louisiana State University for school.

He transferred to Cincinnati in the summer of 2015.
