Tulsa - Cincinnati Postgame Breakdown

CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati couldn't stop Tulsa but slowed its rapid-fire offense enough, even with a depleted defense, to become bowl eligible.

Gunner Kiel had 386 yards passing and Cincinnati reeled off three straight touchdowns in the second half to pull away from Tulsa 49-38 on Saturday night.

Tulsa's hurry-up offense prevents defensive substitutions.

"You have to have a lot of depth on defense to play them," Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville said. "We weren't going to shut this team down. We saw more deep balls on our secondary than we have all season.
