A Bearcats Football Preview With The Saturday Edge

Over the weekend I answered a couple of questions for The Saturday Edge (@SaturdayEdge) and Tim over there posted our full conversation yesterday.

Bold proclamations were made (Gunner Kiel throwing for 4,000+ yards, 40+ touchdowns? SURE!). My obsession with this team was revealed (why, yes, I’d be happy to invest the contents of my bank account in the 2015 Bearcats). But hopefully reading through it will give you a brief respite from the long offseason (HEY, the Reds are losing again!).

Here’s but a taste of what you’ll find if you click that link above.

"If the spring game taught us anything it’s that Cincinnati’s offense should be as explosive as last year, if not more dangerous. UC’s quarterbacks threw for over 1,000 yards that day and the unit as a whole crossed the goal line 10 times.The Bearcats return every single key contributor at wide receiver from last season, a total of 6 seniors. There’s no one player for defenses to hone in on. If they double-cover the 6’6″ Mekale McKay on the outside it leaves Mr. Good Hands Shaq Washington open over the middle. If they bring down a safety to cover Shaq, the speedy Chris Moore could burn his coverage on the outside for an easy touchdown. Overall, the weapons the Bearcats are working with on the outside should create headaches for opposing defenses."
