This season has been rough on Cincinnati fans and tonight was no different as the Cincinnati Bearcats lost a heartbreaking overtime thriller to the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, 70-68. This game had a little bit of everything; good/bad defense, good/bad offense, mental errors, late turnovers and even a full-court shot before halftime that ultimately accounted for the difference in this game.
Cincinnati actually started this one fast, jumping out to a 14-6 lead over the opening seven minutes of the game, keyed by solid defensive play that limited the Tulsa offense. Despite the lead, the Bearcats weren't necessarily firing on all cylinders offensively themselves, but continued to maintain their lead throughout the first half.
