Memphis 11/29 3:30 ABC

[coach]

We're right where we want to be. Oline did a really good job in first half protecting Ben. Wasn't perfect by any stretch, but they have him time to throw the ball, and we've outgained them on the ground. Number of plays way in our favor, ball control clinic. Have to tackle better and continue to pressure. Hopefully pick up a special teams play. That kickoff return was about as bad a start as you could imagine.

[UC4me]

Down by 3 at half. We are in a good position. Hopefully more passing the second half as our runs are being stuffed.

[UC4me]

Bryant is standing strong. He is gaining confidence with each series.

[Jeff Burk]

Memphis is playing tough and Cincy looks like they are playing soft

[blackattack]

Ben Bryant will start today

So Ridder IS hurt. Why start Bryant now? SMH
Not fair to Bryant

[Bearcat-in-Italy]

Oh boy ... rough start. Did not get the 3 and out to start the game, quite the contrary. Second false start. Ben can’t complete anything. Track meet is underway and looks very scary right now. See if the D can get a stop or this could get ugly. 14-3.

[Cliftonite]

I don't see any way of UC winning this game. Hate to say it.

[Lobot]

Ben Bryant will start today

[CincyBearcats2]

21-3 over the past 2 seasons. Winners win. 35-23 UC.

[Lobot]

To be honest there's nowhere to go in penatlies. We're the most penalized team in the country. A lot of them are pre-snap. If we can eliminate the offensive pre-snap stuff I'd be happy. I don't think the crowd is going to be a factor today.

[Bearcat-in-Italy]

Bearcats are the college version of the New England Patriots. There are more Phases to the game than just offense. The Bearcats are winning with special teams, defense, hidden yards, and let’s face it a little bit of luck. If we can keep the penalties down today which would be a miracle, and not turn the ball over, I see a victory.

[Bearcats1232002]

I am thinking we have no chance based on what I have seen of our play the last few weeks. I say Memphis 40 UC 21. I will gladly eat crow if I am wrong.

[London 'Cat]

I see the issues on offense and defense that have plagued the 'Cats in the last few games resulting in a UM victory. I hope I am wrong, but it seems like the perfect storm - home game for UM, senior day for UM, the opportunity for the right to hold the AAC championship - all factors point to a victory for UM.

I am trying to remain positive. Special teams and defense will carry us to victory.

This is the least confident I've felt this season, other than at tO$U. The Tigers are very explosive on offense, both on the ground and through the air. If Desmond Ridder can't hit receivers, it's going to be very difficult to score enough. Memphis have put up at least 28 points in every game except the opener, when they topped Ole Miss, 15-10.
