3 Losses Too Late: Gunner Kiel To Start at QB for #BlackOutHomecoming vs. ECU

On Tommy Tuberville’s radio show last night, the Cincinnati football head coach announced that fifth year senior Gunner Kiel, who has been UC’s starting quarterback for all of the last two season when not injured, will make his first start of the season this Saturday night at 7:00 against the Pirates from East Carolina University.

Saying “It’s about damn time” isn’t really even a valid comment at this point. It was time two games ago.

The Bearcats have fallen to their lowest point since 2005, starting 0-3 in the American Conference, and effectively ending any chance at a league title after loss number two.
