A critical game in the American Athletic Conference schedule will get underway just a bit early this week, as the Cincinnati Bearcats visit the UConn Huskies for an 11:30 a.m. kickoff at Rentschler Field.
UC will meet up with an opponent it has dominated (10-2 all-time) right when it needs a win. Following another rout at the hands of an AAC foe last week (45-20 to USF), the Bearcats are 0-2 in league play and in desperate need of a victory. With questions swirling around the offense and the quarterback position, plus growing dissatisfaction with Tommy Tuberville among the fanbase, UC can’t afford to let one go on the road.
