Military bowl!

#22 Cincinnati Bearcats (10-3) at Pittsburgh Panthers (7-5)

3rd year of bowl games with William Mack at running back. And once again he is injured. This time he'll miss the game, just like last year. He played 32 games in 3 years and have missed 2 of 3 bowl games. William 'Bad Kar'MAck.

Their offense looks good and is 19th in the country. Their defense looks suspect and we could get a high scoring game. Even without Mack in the line-up.

1st

1st drive of the game. QB Lancaster comes out slinging and completes his first pass for WR Smith for 65 yards. 3 plays later FB Rosa runs 14 yards for paydirt. 7-0 Pitt!

Our second possesion of the game. Boom 30-yard completion, 31-yard completion, 38-yard TD completion for WR Smith. Lancaster is balling. 14-0 Pitt

After getting help converting some 3rd downs on penalties they score on a 24-yard field goal. On the runback after the score Freshman RB Brian Oliver fumbles, and on the very next play Cincinnati completes a 26-yard pass. 14-10 Pitt.

2nd

After another fumble deep in own territory Cincinnati takes the lead 17-14.

We exchange possesions throug punts and turnovers. Cincinnati misses a 30-yard field goal attempt and we go in 14-17.

3rd

Bearcats starts off by scoring a FG on their opening drive of the second half. 14-20.

Looks like Bearcats are running away. Another score after another possesion wehre we fail to move the ball. 14-28. Our next possesion will be crucial.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. Lancaster lead us down the field ending with a 37-yard TD throw to WR Jack Davis. 21-28. We're still in it.

Cincinnati stalls on the next possesion. And we march down the field and Lancaster finds TE Madrid for the score. 28-28! It's on!

4th

Cincinnati stalls

We march down but get hit by a couple of dumb penalties. We do connect on a FG. 31-28!

Bearcats is still in it. They have a decent series lead by QB Henson. But stops right outside the redzone. 40 FG try is good 31-31.

Back-to-back punts

Tie ball-game. Garry Lancaster have the chance to win the game. 3:11 on the clock. Lancaster gets intercepted! Cincinnati has the ball at Pit-44. Is this game over?

QB Henson hand it right back. CB Lee intercepts and returns it to the Pit-31.

One more shot for Lancaster and Pitt to win our first bowl game in our era. 1:27, Tie ball game, 69 yards for the TD.

Walker 20-yard run, 38 yard completion to TE Madrid, 10 yard TD-pass to Madrid! We're in front! 38-31!

Cincinnati goes 4 and out!

We win our first bowl game!
