Cincinnati Bearcats are 5-1 after a road victory against Houston this past Saturday. The game wasn’t pretty, but Cincinnati got the job done.
These 10 plays helped pave the way for the Bearcats’ win.
1. Alec Pierce sets the tone on second play
On the Bearcats first possession and the second play of the game, QB Desmond Ridder hit WR Alec Pierce with a 44 yard completion. There was no yards after the catch, just a beautifully thrown ball that Pierce went up and caught. It was one of two catches for Pierce, who came into 2019 with no career catches, but has emerged as the go-to deep threat option.
