Bearcats clash with Cardinals in Big East action
Cincinnati, OH (Sports Network) - The fifth-ranked Cincinnati Bearcats will try to make it seven wins in a row this weekend, as they host the Louisville Cardinals in Big East play at Nippert Stadium.Despite being highly ranked and undefeated, the Bearcats continue to go unnoticed, although they did gain a little more recognition following a 34-17 triumph over then 21st-ranked South Florida on Thursday October 15th.
"We were solid in all phases that allowed us to get a really good win against a really good [team]," said head coach Brian Kelly.
Kelly has worked his magic once again after leading Cincinnati to the Big East title in 2008, as the Bearcats are now 6-0 on the season and ranked fifth, their highest mark in school history. The Bearcats also checked in at No.5 in the initial BCS standings and that is quite an accomplishment for a team that wasn't even ranked at the start of the season.
As for the Cardinals, their struggles continued over the weekend with a 38-25 loss at Connecticut.
"Every loss is tough," said head coach Steve Kragthorpe, whose club was down just 14-13 at halftime. "It doesn't matter if you lose by one or 50 points. It still hurts the same. We had opportunities."
Louisville hasn't made the most of its opportunities thus far and has dropped four of its last five games in falling to just 2-4 on the campaign. The Cardinals are also 0-2 in league play compared to Cincinnati's 2-0 mark.
In terms of the all-time series, Cincinnati holds a 27-20-1 edge over Louisville in the annual battle for the Keg of Nails. Last season, the Bearcats snapped a five-game losing skid in the series with a 28-20 victory over the Cardinals.
The Cardinals had one of their best offensive performances of the season last weekend, although the 457 total yards they gained was negated by four costly turnovers in a loss to UConn.
"Turnovers were obviously a big part of the game," said coach Kragthorpe. "We turned it over four times, and they only did once. We've got to keep possession of the ball better."
Quarterback Adam Froman accounted for two of the mishaps on interceptions, but he was solid otherwise, completing 24-of-31 pass attempts for 295 yards and a touchdown. Froman completed 16 passes in a row in one stretch, and he has converted 64.4 percent of his tosses on the season.
Scott Long has been his favorite target, as he tops the club with 28 catches and 468 receiving yards. He led the team with five catches for 58 yards last weekend.
In the backfield, Victor Anderson heads the club with 424 yards and five touchdowns behind a 5.7 yard per carry average. Anderson didn't start last weekend due to a bone bruise, but he did rush for 58 yards and a score on just five carries. Bilal Powell ended up carrying the load with 29 attempts for 87 yards and two scores though, he also lost of pair of fumbles.
Louisville simply couldn't slow down UConn last weekend, allowing the Huskies to rack up 481 total yards, including 208 on the ground.
"We have to tackle better," said Kragthorpe. "We gave up some big plays in the passing game on short pass plays. We've got to do a better job of getting the guy on the ground and tackle him."
The Huskies are by no means an offensive juggernaut, so it was a disappointing effort from this defense, which is allowing 158.7 rushing ypg and 201.0 passing ypg on the season.
Jon Dempsey paced the defense in the loss with 16 tackles, to go with a sack. It was another solid effort by Dempsey, who heads the squad with 64 stops and three sacks on the season.
Behind the steady arm of quarterback Tony Pike, the Bearcats are averaging an electric 40.7 ppg and 457.0 total ypg. Against USF, Cincinnati showed it is more than a one-man show, as the team scored 17-second half points with Pike sidelined with an injury to his non-passing arm. Pike had thrown for 140 yards and two touchdowns prior to leaving in the third quarter, and backup Zach Collaros stepped in and three plays later he ran 75 yards to paydirt to give Cincinnati a 24-10 lead.
"I actually didn't see the signal [the play before], so we had to call timeout," said Collaros. "We got the plan, and Jake Ramsey and the offensive line opened a big hole. Jake Ramsey crushed the linebacker. I just cut off of his butt, and I guess I split two, and just tried not to get caught."
It was a game-changing play by Collaros, who finished the night with 132 yards and two scores on the ground. Pike was back at practice on Monday with a cast on his left forearm, which he broke last season and ended up missing a few games due to the injury. The talented gunslinger is in the midst of a terrific campaign, having thrown for 1,633 yards and 15 touchdowns, but his status for this weekend is not known at this time. If unavailable, Collaros would obviously get the call after his performance against USF.
Whomever does end up under center will surely be looking the way of Mardy Gilyard, one of the Big East's best receivers. Gilyard had five catches for 75 yards last week against USF, and he now has 43 receptions, 592 yards and seven scores on the campaign.
While the offense receives most of the credit, it is Cincinnati's defense that has made the biggest impact on the team's success. Despite losing nearly every starter from a year ago, the Bearcats have been terrific on defense and are holding foes to 324.7 total ypg. The unit has picked off 12 passes thanks to consistent pressure, as Cincinnati has recorded 25 sacks already.
Last week, the Bearcats notched four sacks and a pair of interceptions, while holding USF to just a 4-of-16 effort on third downs. Cincinnati gave up a little more yards that its average, allowing 376, but it compensated with big plays.
"Overall, the whole defense played a good game, and that picked up the offense for the game," said safety Aaron Webster, who returned an interception 83 yards. "With the defense, we did our job and we helped the offense do their job."
Webster tops the roster with three interceptions on the campaign, while Andre Revels leads the defense with 50 tackles.
