Cincinnati wins their 10th straight in the "Battle for the Bell", defeating the RedHawks, 37-33, in Oxford, Ohio, despite some major injuries and four turnovers.
Coming off a tough home loss to Temple in Week 2, the Bearcats were looking to get back on track against the Miami (OH) RedHawks. Both teams entered the game 1-1, but the gap between the two teams felt much wider with Cincinnati entering the season as an AAC favorite and the RedHawks in a long-term rebuilding project. How long-term? Cincinnati entered the game with nine straight wins over the RedHawks in the "Battle For The Bell", dating back to 2005.
