The deafening sound of groans was pretty much the only thing you could hear on Saturday afternoon as the Cincinnati Bearcats slogged their way to a 65-60 win over UConn. Both teams combined for just 53 points in the first half while shooting a coma inducing 37.5% from the field, including just 15 made two pointers, to go along with 15 combined turnovers.
At that point the old guard in the UC fan base fell back on their usual complaints, that Mick Cronin runs a stagnant, unproductive offense while apparently forgetting that the Bearcats boast the 9th best scoring defense in college basketball and UConn the 11th.
