Entering last week's 125th Battle for the Victory Bell, the University of Cincinnati defense had forced a turnover in 20 straight games. It was the longest active streak in the FBS.
Sixty minutes later, that streak was over.
The Bearcats failed to create a turnover in their 49-14 home win Saturday over in-state rival Miami University.
Well, kind of.
With Cincinnati ahead 35-0 on the final play of the first half, UC senior defensive end Malik Vann appeared to have caused a fumble on a strip sack of RedHawks quarterback AJ Mayer. Vann returned the loose ball for a touchdown.
