The Bearcats, once again, took the game down to the wire and, for the third straight contest, came away with the win, defeating Connecticut 58-57 on a clutch Gary Clark three-point play with 12 seconds remaining. Clark took the ball to the rim, drew the foul and calmly gave Cincinnati the one-point lead; a lead UConn couldn't overcome in the closing seconds, despite three attempts.
With the win, Cincinnati pushes their record to 16-6 overall and 6-3 in the American Athletic Conference, trailing only SMU in the conference standings. The Bearcats earned a much needed road win, which boosts their postseason resume, and should only contribute to what feels like building momentum for the Bearcats heading into February.
