Via Justin Williams: Cincinnati will play Louisville in the Wasabi Fenway Bowl on Saturday, Dec. 17 at Fenway Park in Boston, sources tell @TheAthleticCFB. Return of the Keg of Nails. Kickoff is at 11 am EST. #Bearcats

(I note that UC is set to host La Salle in basketball that day at 2:00 p.m.)

I'm glad it's early in the day, we have an ugly sweater party that night. Hope we can finally get the keg of nails back

Yikes, Mobile QB again. That strikes me as a bad matchup for us

It’s a bad matchup no matter how you look at it. With all the turmoil in the program at this point, I don’t think UC can beat anyone in a bowl.

Ok. Wisconsin would certainly motivate the players, or at least those that remain.

A brunch kickoff …… how nice.

Louisville is better than their record indicates. Let's hope KC has the team prepared, and morale is good. Otherwise, we could lose this one by 24. Despite the crummy, cold location, this is a decent bowl, against a P5 team; one with lots of history between the two teams.

B.C.

Awkward…has this ever happened before?

I expect that Coach Satterfield will just concentrate on recruiting and let Coombs coach the bowl game. But who knows?

Kelly didn't but he was Kelly with his hand on everything including coaching the bowl game to a win

Butch Jones sat on the sideline when he was first hired.

Deion Branch named interim HC for Louisville. The UL grad and staffer was a long-time NFL WR, most notably with New England.

I'm unsure of what your comments means, but Kelly's year was a completely different set of circumstances. Dantonio took all the assistants he wanted to MSU immediately, and when Kelly was hired he had almost a month before the bowl game. The International Bowl was played on January 6.
