Bearcats fans should be excited about Desmond Ridder if they aren’t already.
Cincinnati’s freshman quarterback spent much of Saturday afternoon making Tulane’s defense look silly completing 15 of his 25 passes for 169 yards and two touchdowns. When he wasn’t throwing the ball around the field, he was using his legs. Ridder rushed for 65 yds and another touchdown en route to Cincy’s homecoming win.
Running back Michael Warren II also put on a show. He picked an opportune time in the second quarter to record a career-long 81 yard run for his 11th touchdown of the year (this was also the third longest in school history).
