Brown

[#BearcatNation]

Whose going? I sent a group text message to my friends and got 15 of them going. I hope the crowd is there. At least 10k

I'll be there in 204 row 8...but I don't think we've had 10k for an opener in quite some time.

Last years home opener against Western Carolina drew 7,200.

2014 home opener against St Francis was 7,100.

2013 home opener against North Carolina Central was 6,500.

Man.. I didn't realize it was that low. Well lets shoot for 7,500 - 8,000. Cincy football is bad right now and we are at least top 25 or 26 at the very worst. Come on fans.

Gonna say Cincy 89 Brown 68. Troy and Gary have big games, and everyone calms down about their exhibition performances. Also 68 seems like alot of points for brown, but i believe Western Carolina scored 72 on us in the opener last season.

I don't think we have the same approach as we did at the beginning of last season. If we score 89, I think it'll be bc we shoot lights out. And giving up 68 may mean crappy defense.

I would say 7,500 is where we should be, would love to see us get to 8k.

For what its worth, 2015 Bellarmine exhibition drew 4,500 - 2016 drew 6,000. Seems to be more buzz this year!

Nice grass roots ground game you got going there. Nice job!

Stream the Town Hall over Facebook live.

I'll see what I can do! I will def give updates.

 

[justinhub2003]

I'll be there. I would love to see a 9k crowd but last year was pretty quiet . I can't wait though.

Bellarmine was tough to watch last week so I'm hoping for something smoother

 

[GoCats88]

Gonna go with 81-52. If they can't get going behind the arc it's gonna be a long day for brown.

 

[jds513]

Had a dream last night that our Cats won 90-15, not allowing a single second half point. With that being said, I think it will be 90-59 in favor of the Cats.

Bellarmine would beat Brown by double digits.

For a mild Bellarmine comparison, they played Louisville last night. Louisville won, 81-60. But Louisville was actually up 45-9 at one point...so that's actually a pretty solid comeback by Bellarmine.

It also could be because Louisville played the subs from that point on. Comparing scores is a trough thing to do. Lots of varibles.

Yeah guys we really need to get over the whole scrimmage thing. It means absolutely nothing. Didn't Syracuse or Louisville lose an exhibition within the past 5 years? Wisconsin lost its first game of the year to a lessor team in a non P5 conference, look at the year Wisconsin had. They knocked off the #2 seed Xavier high school in the tournament.

These next 2 games might not be the prettiest to watch either. We just need to get all the kinks out and make sure we are ready for R.I. I'm excited for this weekend of course, but can't help but to keep thinking about R.I. That's going to be HUGE.

Just don't forget to write in bulldog for Prez today people. BTW if UC scores 90 this Friday I will be one happy American...

Yikes. Sounds like we need to be better.

Cuse lost to Le Moyne in 2009. Cuse then went on to get a #1 seed in the NCAA Tourney.

Lol... another very good reason to just look at exhibition as a way to judge individual talent as opposed to team performance.

People need something to talk about so they are going to use the exhibition unfortunately. I think we can all agree the season can't come soon enough.

Anybody want to have a cold one at Mio's prior to the game.
