Total in the Cincinnati/San Diego State is 109, by far the lowest of the night — and I still think I would take the under.
— Jeff Borzello (@jeffborzello) December 17, 2014
From our game crew: "SDSU guard Aqeel Quinn participated in shootaround and is a game-time decision to play tonight at Cincinnati."

2 fouls on GaryClark so we've probably seen the last of him until 2nd half. Ellis and DeBerry playing together now. #Bearcats

SDSU leads 18-12 with 7:55 left 1H. Shooting 1-8 outside the arc, 6-7 inside the arc….
— Mark Zeigler (@sdutzeigler) December 18, 2014
Wearing the shot clock down to get off a putrid shot after passing up 8 decent looks will never make any sense at all to me.
— Danny V. (@DTV89) December 18, 2014
Every time I've looked up from my computer to check on Cincy-San Diego State, someone has shot an airball. Not even kidding.

Blown goal-tending calls mystify me. If there's any separation between the shooter and a defender at the rim, it's a goal-tend.
— John Gasaway (@JohnGasaway) December 18, 2014
For all those Winston Shepard haters, that was his 4th assist of the first half….

What has gotten into DeBerry?
— Matt Opper (@M_Opper) December 18, 2014
DeBerry is hungry. Feed him. All night. #Bearcats
— B. Fox (@BearcatsRadio) December 18, 2014
Watching Cincinnati always reminds me of when Nick Van Exel said his jersey should be retired at The Pyramid for what he did to Memphis.

HALFTIME at Fifth Third – #Bearcats 22, San Diego State 20
DeBerry leads all scorers with six points.
— Cincinnati Bearcats (@GoBEARCATS) December 18, 2014
I’ll give those teams some credit for the way they defended. But there were also some shot attempts that had no business being taken.

Gary Clark got tripled by SDSU and scored. Unreal.
— Eric Lilly (@EricLiIIy) December 18, 2014
Offensive explosion by SDSU to start the half as they score 12 (all at the rim) in first 4 minutes of half. SDSU back up 32-29. #Bearcats

Gary Clark is going to be really good. Going to have his ups and downs this year but that's what Frosh do.

— Cincinnati Bearcats (@GoBEARCATS) December 18, 2014
That looked like a goaltend. Is this Europe?
— Jason Sallans (@JasonSallans) December 18, 2014
Here I thought there was no longer a rule about the ball hitting the backboard when determining goaltending.

Timeout with 7:28 and the #Bearcats down 43-38.

That's 4 fouls on Spencer. Angelo Chol still being tended to by medical staff for his left knee. Meanwhile, Spencer stays in with 4 min left

Young Gary. My man. #Bearcats
— B. Fox (@BearcatsRadio) December 18, 2014
Good move, bad defensive lapse by San Diego State there. No way he should be able to split 2 defenders in the corner
— Ed Isaacson (@Ed_HunterAM) December 18, 2014
One hell of a drive and finish by Clark to go up 5. #Bearcats
Quinn with a 2 to answer. 54-52 with 26.2 left.

Second time tonight a Cincinnati big man has pulled off a euro step. Not sure how you let that last one happen though.
— Raphielle Johnson (@raphiellej) December 18, 2014
Of note, SDSU only has 4 team fouls. Will have to burn clock to get to bonus. #Bearcats
— BearcatJournal.com (@BearcatJournal) December 18, 2014
Finally to bonus. Johnson to line. #Bearcats
