Changing landscape of college football leaves Cincinnati behind
Very, very good piece from CBS Sports’ Dennis Dodd, albeit a depressing one at that. It’s encouraging to know that the accomplishments Cincinnati has accomplished on the football field hasn’t gone unnoticed in the national media. While the situation UC currently finds itself in isn’t ideal it appears they’ve earned the respect of the higher ups around the country. And with Nippert renovations right around the corner along with the arrival of an established coach, the Bearcats are positioning themselves to make the leap if and when the conference realignment carousel starts up again.
If you’re planning on tailgating this fall this is extremely pertinent to you. Whether you’re going to play cornhole and drink until your liver gives out or to actually prep for the game, you’ll need to secure a spot early. Bidding ends this Friday.
