This is a big game here we have our 10-2 bearcats taking on the 8-3 Nebraska cornhuskers out of the big ten on saterday at 12 on ESPN. Last OOC game against a quality opponent who as beaten Miama(FL) and Georgia, they are led by 6-6 Sophomore Terran Petteway who averages 16.8 pts a game including 27 pts in their last game against The Citadel. They are co-led by 6-8 sophomore Shavon Shields who averages 13.6 pts and 6-8 junior Leslee Smith who leads the team in rebounds with 6.8. This is a good team but they are young and only have 2 seniors so lets hope our home crowd can help us out and our press creates lots of turnovers. They do not rebound exceptionally well, uc averages 4.5 more rebounds a game. I expect justin jackson to have another huge gameand we continue on this hot streak and go into conference play 11-2.
 
It will be a nice win if we get it. I think the X game was a wake up call. I liked the agressiveness last game and the passing. Im picking the Cats.
 
Cincinnati has a nice little 3 game stretch here against Nebraska, SMU and @Memphis. After January 4th, the conference schedule is quite backloaded with a 3 game stretch Louisville, @UConn, Memphis that will likely determine UC's NCAA tournament fate in late February- early March.

The Cats looked very good the other night, but we have to consider the competition. I was very high on this group before the three game stretch, so I really don't know what to think now. This team needs a "convincing"win against a decent team and this is that opportunity! And, it couldn't come at a better time then right before the league play starts. I'm looking forward to Saturday. I hope our fans show up and support the program. This is a game where they deserve that support!

Heard good things about the tickets sold for this game, however this was before the game time was moved/Belk Bowl was announced.
 
I'm just glad they moved the game so we can watch both it and the Bowl game. This game is an important game and the Cats need to come out focused on the W.

Definitly, I know students are on break and many others are up at the Belk Bowl, but I expect a loud crowd

Who are you trying to kid? You were really high on them before the 3 game stretch? Really??? And after back to back losses you had a plethora of posts asking for a coaching change and saying you had been proven right after asking for this over the past 8 years. So a couple of wins and you are back on the bandwagon? So in your mind 2 losses erased 3 straight NCAA appearances and the coach needed to be replaced. But with 3 straight wins the program needs fan support. Can't wait for the next loss so you can again preach your mantra regarding a coaching change. It'll be another great opportunity to let us all know how right you have been for the past 8 years.

Thank you! Agree totally. This person and his personal attacks is exactly why hardly anyone posts on Bearcatnews anymore. He was banned from this site in March and is now back doing the same thing again. This is a good fan site and I hope the mods keep it that way!

I actually think the reason is the opposite. I come here because it's easier to speak freely. I think the other site cracks down WAY too much and this one is just about right.
 
For those that will be watching this one from home, unfortunately you will have to deal with Dan Dakich. That guy makes my head hurt and always seems like he has a condescending tone towards UC. I expect him to criticize UC heavily if they do not score well...

He criticizes every team. He is very honest, which I appreciate, but I find him obnoxious for the most part.
 
I've never heard Dan say anything positive about UC. But again he is a coach who couldn't cut it in the MAC and now commentates high school basketball games. So his words dont carry any weight imo.

I dislike him very much but he wasnt a bad coach in the mac and actually was offered and accepted the west virginia job but once he got there apparently found out some shady recruiting had been goung on so he returned to bowling green... never was that good after that happened.
