I'm late posting this because I'm a big believer in taking a few hours to let the emotions calm down after huge games like we saw today. First off, I want to say great game and congratulate you guys on a fantastic season considering the circumstances. Yes, UConn probably slightly fell short of...

Good idea because the people that run the AAC also run that Twitter account for sure.

Yes, because the AAC wouldn't want the possibility of a third team in the NCAA's and a good crowd tomorrow. It wasn't a fix, the refs did a great job, as well that could of been expected with two physical teams like this. I have no complaints.

It's a physical game, I'm actually fairly impressed with how the refs have kept the game under control. Hopefully they keep it up the as we head towards the second half.

It wouldn't be March without the Bearcats and Huskies squaring off in the AAC Tournament, would it? I love it. Congrats on your excellent season so far, I knew after a slow start UConn would scrap and claw and find a way to get near .500. You guys played my Bearcats extremely tough this year so...

You must have looked before it actually came out, Cincy is 5.5 or 6 point favorite depending on where you look.

Hello UConn faithful! I hope you guys are excited about our game tomorrow as I am. This is what college basketball is all about, two good, deep and talented teams, Senior Day, NCAA Tournament aspirations and seeding on the line. This is why we're all fans of this great game. As for the game...

I did not notice a lack of effort today. UConn basically has six capable players right now, that's just not enough in major D-1 basketball especially against an upper echelon team like Cincinnati. KO won the national title a few years ago, you can't just run him out after one below average year...

First off, I want to apologize, I predicted a 38 point Bearcat victory and that was an extremely optimistic view by myself. I believe Cincinnati's biggest lead was only 25. Your team played well today, Purvis was really hot and Vital can flat out stroke the ball. Jalen Adams didn't play his...

I've seen some angst about my lopsided score prediction. That wasn't meant as a slight or to disrespect UConn in any way. Sometimes you have to be honest about things, and if we're being honest we have to acknowledge UConn is 10-11 with some really bad losses and Cincinnati is 20-2 and a top 20...

Why you guys feel the need to be insulting is beyond me. I come over here to talk a little basketball with what I thought was one of the more knowledgeable fan bases in the country but it appears you're not capable of it. I get it. This is a rivalry and sometimes when fans of other teams come...

Fickel had an 8 month stint as an interim head coach where he went 6-7. Not good but certainly not enough there to really judge too harshly in my opinion. Randy Edsall is 96-103 and 1-29 against the top 25. Yes, he starterd basically from ground zero at UConn so I won't knock his record too...

Let me ask you this, what makes the Fickel hiring so uninspiring? Are you basing that solely on the fact he took a really talented Ohio State team and finished 6-7? He did a bad job that year, no doubt. But I don't think it's fair to say that Luke Fickel can't coach or he's uninspiring because...

Hey fellas looks like it's that time of year once again. I'm really looking forward to our game Saturday and I'm expecting a rock fight. Kevin Ollie once again has his squad firing on all cylinders. I watched your game against Tulane and the way UConn was able to pull away late from a young and...

Good one. It was quite embarrassing to lose to UConn but it happens. It was your biggest win in program history for UConn and it's never fun to be on that end of this but it was nice to finally see UConn win something.

Did Luke Fickel struggle in his one year at Ohio State? Absolutely. That's a legit point. That said, that was a really weird situation for Luke and it definitely wasn't "his program" like Cincinnati is now. He was a lame duck coach for the Buckeyes and he knew it, the administration knew it and...

Pretty lackluster class by the Huskies. I'll be a fan of the Beavers kid though, he went to my high school. I know recruiting during a transitional year where you get a whole new staff is tough but pretty much every recruiting site has UConn's class ranked near the bottom of the AAC and in the...

I'm confused why some of you take issue with my original post. I know I'm an opposing fan but the only thing I wanted to do was come over and have an intelligent football discussion with you guys. This is going to be a tough game for my Bearcats, Bob Diaco has your program rolling right now and...

Hello UConn faithful! It's that time of year again, Cincinnati at UConn. 11:30AM. CBS Sports Network. This is what college football is all about. Bowl implications will be in the October air and The Rent will be absolutely rocking. UConn has given Cincinnati fits in recent years and this will be...

UConn. Cincinnati. Friday. ESPN2. Is Husky nation excited as I am for the best rivalry in the AAC this Friday afternoon!? It's going to be so awesome sending UConn to the NIT! We've played twice this year and I thought it was obvious that Cincinnati was the better team on both occasions. UConn...

The way class rankings are made up is a joke. UConn's class is rated low but that's irrelevant. After the top 15-20 ranked classes everyone has about the same pool of players. From here on out it's about player development and the commitment to football by the new players. Bob Diaco isn't a good...

This is going to be a two bid league, I think. Although SMU will be just as good as beating a tournament team should UConn or Cincy beat them. Going to be a few sub 250 RPI teams unfortunately.

Bearcat fan here, our offense looks good but we've played all scrubs. The Cats have Nebraska, George Washington or Tennessee, Butler, at Xavier, Iowa State and at VCU in the next six weeks. We'll see if we're still putting up points against real competition. I think we're probably somewhere...

The AAC bowls are already mediocre but what's even worse is most are played at noon or 11AM on a weekday. If I was UConn and you win one of your last two I'd be lobbying for that Hawaii bowl.

Not yet.

Not at all I was just noting your improvement from last year to this year. I'll come over here one week before our game every year with an "Are you ready for this beating?" thread every year until the Huskies win.

Just looking back on last years game really puts it in perspective of how much better UConn got in one season. Cincinnati went to the Rent in 2014 and dominated the Huskies in a 41-0 shutout. This season UConn actually looked like a competent offense with playmakers like Arkeel Newsome and a QB...

Just saw this thread. I'm glad it was a clean injury free game. Congrats to basketball season starting in two weeks. You're football team is 2 years away, but it'll get there.

I can assure you I am indeed a Bearcat fan. My seats are in 211 in Shank Pavillion. I just call it as I see it and quite frankly I was wrong because UConn played much better than I thought they would. They're coming.

?? I came on here to compliment your team after Cincy and UConn played a good football game and this is how I'm treated? I don't get it. We both know UConn is really young but they came in here and really battled and had a chance to win late. I want UConn to be good and they're on the way. I...

I know I came over here this week and ruffled some feathers but I want everyone to know it was all in good fun and I didn't mean any harm by it. I was extremely impressed with what I saw out of UConn today. It's obvious Bob Diaco has the Huskies going in the right direction. The speed I saw on...

Haha never been bit. A few close calls. If I could do it over I would not be working here.

I'm not Kobe but I am the most knowledgable Bearcat fan in the country and to answer your question I would say about 70% of Bearcat fans prefer Moore. He's a talented freshman and with the way our season is going I'm getting a sense our fans want to build for the future. I personally prefer Gunner.

Do people in the northeast not have this channel. Almost everyone I know has it down here even on our most basic cable packages.

Go to work and tape it. At halftime I guarantee you'll be saying to yourself that's what you should of done.
