After being out on the road for three-straight weeks, it was not ridiculous to think the Cincinnati Bearcats would benefit from a return home.
It looks ridiculous now, though.
With the home crowd at Nippert Stadium behind them, the Bearcats (2-3) laid an egg against the Marshall Thundering Herd, falling 38-21. Even that 17-point margin of defeat doesn’t illustrate just how bad this game was.
Hayden Moore regressed in a major way, failing to complete many passes at all in the first half before racking up 211 total yards across the entire game, grabbing most of them in garbage time.
