I legitimately cannot believe how badly this game was called and managed by Cincinnati’s offensive staff. They 100% were overmatched up front but this was honestly atrocious and we as UConn fans have watched a LOT of bad football the last few years

Bama and Cinci's staff eliminated their best wideout from the game. He needed more targets.

Fair to say that O line play really cost CU any chance at competing. D was pretty good.

Also, Alabama's D line is extremely disciplined. Ridder has no escape routes.

ESPNU sky cam is pretty cool, I’m pretty sure no one tuned into to listen to Espns 3rd string broadcasters though.

Plenty of time for Bama to prepare feel these games always is an advantage for the defenses.

I don’t know why bama is throwing the ball at all. Run it 4 straight times and cincy has basically zero chance of ever stopping them.

Alabama always was going to overmatch Cincinnati up front...D line and O line.

And that is the game...

Hard to beat Bama if you don't cross the goal line. And now Bama is going to run out the clock on the ground.

Pretty crappy game plan from the coin toss onward. Was Critical to score first and start with ball. The we’ll play D first to make a statement is just stupidity. Only way they win was to get them rattled

Killer stat...Cincinnati's Third Down Efficiency was 2-12...

And Cinncinnati's 74 net yards Rushing vs Bama's 301.

Right not saying Cincy was gonna win or even come close, I do feel there was something missing from Cincy, kind of feel they gave Cincy too much respect.

Eh. He let the DE blow right him on one of the sacks.
Ridder had pressure from his right and moved out of the box to his left in a 3rd Q sack . Was not Tunstalls fault there. He held up pretty well and will be drafted. Beavers did what he did when he was here. Did not make many tackles.

Due to time constraints it is an imperfect playoff system. I would have liked to see Alabama play Utah. It is not like Cinci blew away all their AAC opponents. An 8 team playoff would be awesome but it would have to start right after Army/Navy.

Bama D made Cincy offense look like the current NY Giant offense.

Hoping for a much better 2nd game. Want Mich to beat Georgia. One SEC team is more than enough.

Cincy didn't embarrass themselves, but it didn't make anyone think the G5 should always have a spot in the playoffs f they are undefeated. But, they did as well as an ND team would...so there's that.
