It was a great night at Nippert Stadium on Thursday as the Cincinnati Bearcats defeated the UCLA Bruins 24-14. The game was not pretty and far from perfect, but the Bearcats found a way to get the job done.
The game started out rough for Cincinnati. After Desmond Ridder and the offense went three-and-out, UCLA marched down the field and got inside the 10 yard line before a fumble. On that drive, UCLA did a lot of motion, a lot of movement at the line of scrimmage and Cincinnati seemed very unsure of what to do.
