No. 5 Cincinnati Bearcats gear for showdown with No. 19 Wichita State

UC's Cronin recaps upset loss at Houston/ Wochit

This is the showdown that the No. 5-ranked University of Cincinnati basketball team and their fans have been pointing toward since the 2017-18 schedule was released.

The No. 19 Wichita State Shockers (20-5, 10-3 American Athletic Conference) will visit UC (23-3, 12-1 AAC) on Sunday at 4 p.m. at Northern Kentucky University, with a national television audience to watch on ESPN.

The game pits the No. 1 (UC) and No. 2 (Wichita) teams in the preseason AAC coaches poll, in their first of two regular-season meetings.
