U-motherfuckin'-C!!

Yeah! Bearcat football! FEEL IT!!

Got to see Coach Brian Kelly's UC Bearcats for the first time tonight. As usual when watching Coach Kelly, I'm impressed. The offense is imaginative, the defense is aggressive. It's as if they're being coached to play beyond their collective ability. Quite a concept.

In the meantime, WE ARE MARSHALL!!

No really, we are Marshall. The Thundering Herd Head Coach is former Ohio State defensive coordinator Mark Snyder. And former UC Head Coach Rick Minter is the current defensive coordinator for Marshall. College football is an incredibly incestuous industry I guess. That's figuratively, not literally, as far as I know.

The Bearcats took down Marshall 33-10 in Huntington, WV tonight in front of one of the lamest 'white outs' I've seen yet. Can we get over this 'everybody wearing the same color' fad already? Wasn't this started by a Canadian NHL team in the first place? Do we really need to mimic anything that NHL fans do? Well, other then get drunk and demand fist fights.

Sure, Marshall is not a good team. They looked more like the Thundering Terd tonight. Their QB threw three INT's and probably should have been picked off at least two more times. His throws were so effing bad that the defenders couldn't even believe the ball was that far off target. Amidst their bewilderment they failed to close their hands around the ball.

It is important to point out though that UC scored 33 points with their THIRD STRING QB playing the whole game. Some guy named Chazz Anderson took the snaps. CHAZZ? Seriously?

That doesn't count Mr. Litigation, Ben Mauk either. You could count Mauk as another lost QB at then the Bearcats would be down to their fourth string QB. I repeat, a guy named Chazz.

Also, Coach Kelly spent the entire fourth quarter and the end of the third literally running out the clock. I don't think they threw a single pass in the fourth quarter. Woody Hayes is smiling down from heaven after watching the Bearcats grind out the clock.

I don't know if UC will win the Big East. They have a shot though. Especially if either of the other two QB's can come back and be effective.

That would be something if UC could get themselves into a BCS bowl game. Although that would almost assuredly mean Brian Kelly would be headed elsewhere. The next big-time program that needs to make a great hire would do well to go after BK.

Several good college football games this week already and it's not even Saturday. Although I guess it will be in about 30 minutes!
