There are few aspects about Bearcats football that have stayed with me since I first latched onto the program in the mid-2000’s. Those little, random details of the games that built the foundation of the UC football fan I am today. On the basketball side most of them emanate from Cincinnati’s incredible run in the 1990’s but those on the grid iron are admittedly much more recent.
I’m not sure on which aspect is ingrained in the fabric of my fandom more. Near the top of the list definitely has to be the sheer noise generated from UC night games and particularly blackouts.
