Tommy Tuberville was in damage control mode on Tuesday for his weekly media luncheon, defending himself, saying that he “Didn’t come here to retire,” and even issuing an apology. But the damage has already been done. The Bearcats sit at 4-5 and 1-4 in the AAC, having lost 4 of their last five games, all in embarrassing fashion. UC has been outscored 91-6 in the second halves of it’s five losses, all of which have been by double digits. UC will visit a Central Florida team that went 0-12 last year as 12-point underdogs. That is embarrassing.
As you well know (unless you live under a rock), Tuberville lashed out at a fan after another embarrassing loss on Saturday afternoon – this one a 20-3 drubbing at the hands of BYU in which UC was held scoreless in the final 57:25 of the game.
