    UC Basketball is 6-4: A Fries Frame Observation.

    UC Basketball is 6-4: A Fries Frame Observation.

    Has the Crosstown Shootout lost it’s luster? *rolls eyes* That game and that atmosphere was absolutely fantastic. This is a top three event in the city every single year without question. The first half looked all too familiar. Xavier looked like they were playing a different sport as they have for much of the past…

    UC Basketball is 6-3: A Fries Frame observation

    Eight days ago, Bryant walked into the JMA Dome in Syracuse and upset the Orange 73-72. Today, they had no such luck at Fifth Third Arena. The Bearcats jumped out to a 36-13 and never looked back, cruising to a 97-71 win. Bryant was down two key players (Kvonn Cramer and Earl Timberlake), but I…

    Surprised and Disappointed but Grateful

    (Featured Image: Sam Greene/The Cincinnati Enquirer) There’s 1:47 left in the fourth quarter. Cincinnati leads 19-17. Desmond Ridder takes the snap and gives it to Mike Warren II. Warren II barrels into the endzone to give the Bearcats a 26-17 lead. The Bearcats pull off a stunning upset in the Rose Bowl. Late in the…

    I’m combining the Ohio State and Louisville games into one post, so bear with me. The Ohio State game was just brutal. After hanging with Ohio State to the tune of just a 21-20 deficit early in the first half, The Bearcats got crushed 81-53. There’s so much that went wrong in this game, but…

    Forgive me for not posting after the NKU loss. That was a soul-crushing second half. Words couldn’t do scoring eleven points in a half any justice. Ironically enough, Cincinnati scored 63 points in the second half and still lost to Arizona 101-93 Monday night (morning)? I’m crazy enough to stay up into the wee hours…

    UC Basketball is 3-0. A Fries Frame Observation:

    (Featured Image credit: Justin Rex/AP Photo) It looked hairy with around five minutes to go as Cincinnati led by just six. The Bearcats closed the game on a 14-2 run to win 87-69. It was a fast start for Cincinnati, building a 23-point lead in the first half. But Eastern Kentucky whittled the lead down…

    UC Basketball is 2-0. A Fries Frame Observation:

    UC Basketball is 2-0. A Fries Frame Observation:

    This win wasn’t quite as decisive for Cincinnati as the first one, but a win is a win. Cleveland State deserves some credit. They looked like a hungry team coming off an embarrassing loss to a Division II team. Defensively there was a lot to clean up. Cleveland State had way too many easy looks…

    UC basketball is 1-0. A Fries Frame Observation:

    We made it. It’s officially basketball season. I was lucky enough to visit the best on-campus arena in the city Monday night to watch Cincinnati dismantle Chaminade 98-55. I’m going to attempt (keyword: attempt) to do this after every UC basketball game this year. First of all, how did Louisville almost lose to this team?…

    Please Unblock me, Jon Rothstein

    Please Unblock me, Jon Rothstein

    (Featured Image courtesy of Jon Rothstein’s YouTube (a handsome man by the way)) A great atrocity occurred on Friday night. CBS Sports college basketball insider Jon Rothstein blocked me on Twitter. Now Jon catches a lot of flak for being “corny” or a “dork,” but I respect his grind and the fact that he’s truly…

    Five Mid-Major Players to watch in 2022

    The Oscar Tshiebwe’s and Armando Bacot’s of the world will get all the headlines with college basketball right around the corner, but these five players from mid-major conferences shouldn’t be overlooked. Sam Vinson, Soph. Guard (Northern Kentucky) Vinson decided to play his college ball close to home and it paid off in year one. The…
