If the Cincinnati Bearcats were to beat the Miami Hurricanes years ago, it would have been crowned as one of the great upsets in college football. Now, sadly, it’s not much of a surprise.
In a game filled with penalties and a lack of execution and energy, the 3-2 Bearcats defeated the 3-1 Canes, 34-23 at Nippert Stadium Thursday night. To make matters worse, it happened on national prime time television.
The Hurricanes had as great of an opportunity as ever to prove the doubtful wrong and show that this program was back on its feet, ready to contend once again.
