To Luke Fickell and his staff for taking UC to places that didn’t seem possible.
To Desmond Ridder and every player on the roster for making history.
To #Bearcats fans for their incredible support.
It was the first time. It won’t be the last
Reminder: it’s ok to change affiliations from what you decided when you were six. Don’t be loyal to these bad franchises and bad ownerships just because you think that’s what is supposed to happen.
Congratulations to @GoBearcatsMBB Trevon Scott on being named Defensive Player of the Year.
Scott is averaging 7.8 defensive rebounds per game, which ranks eighth in the nation, along with 1.5 steals per game.
On early downs in neutral game scripts, the Chiefs were — by far — the most pass-heavy team in the NFL this season. Patrick Mahomes just had one of the 5 most productive play-action Super Bowls ever. You don't need a run-heavy offense to hurt teams with play action.
