Winning on the road is difficult. The Cincinnati Bearcats proved that and also proved they were up to the challenge against the UNLV Rebels just a couple weeks ago. That was their first true road game of the season. For their second, the Bearcats are turning the difficulty sliders up, as they will face the No. 18 Mississippi State Bulldogs in Starkville on Saturday night.
This is the third-straight Saturday in which the Bearcats have a chance to make a statement with a victory. After disposing of UNLV on Dec. 1, the Bearcats were in action against their arch rivals in the Crosstown Shootout this past Saturday.
