— Cincinnati Bearcats (@GoBEARCATS) September 27, 2014
Gunner Kiel doesn't play. Goes deep to Moore for a score. About that pass defense

Gantz adds the PAT, #Bearcats lead 7-0 with 13:36 left in the 1st quarter. Down the Drive can be heard rolling through Ohio Stadium!

OSU-Cincy was over when Bearcats punted on 4th/3. Can't play field-position football with below-average D.

3 TDs don't kill a spirit. 3 drives that produce touchdowns kills their spirit

Up 16-7 in the 1st, Urban Meyer went for it on 4th-and-short. Thatโs some #WRTS right there.

— Land-Grant Holy Land (@Landgrant33) September 27, 2014
D-line getting outmanned. Awful tackling. Poor coverage. Other than that, the defense is playing great.
— Mo Egger (@MoEgger) September 27, 2014
Damn. Ohio State just came so strong. Wow. Wasn't expecting that.
— Michael Felder (@InTheBleachers) September 27, 2014
terrible punt sam
— Bearcat T (@Bearcat_T) September 27, 2014
At the end of the first quarter it's Bearcats 7, Buckeyes 23
— Cincinnati Football (@GoBearcatsFB) September 27, 2014
UC has to move a 7th guy into the box. If you give Urban Meyer 6 in the box he will run the ball all day
— Matt Opper (@M_Opper) September 27, 2014
What is a "tackle"?
— Brendan Eater (@Brendan_Eater8) September 27, 2014
Evan Spencer takes advantage of some ole defense and itโs 6 more. Ohio State cruising.
— Land-Grant Holy Land (@Landgrant33) September 27, 2014
Nick Temple has played enough football to know that the tackle is flying out to make that block. He ran right into that
— Matt Opper (@M_Opper) September 27, 2014
My worst fears has been realized
— Stuart Gilchrist (@StewieGilchrist) September 27, 2014
Brutal.
— Mo Egger (@MoEgger) September 27, 2014
Sad to say, this reminds some of us of the early Tim Murphy #UC years of 69-3 and 81-0 losses. Defensively, at least.
— Tom Groeschen (@TomGroeschen) September 27, 2014
What makes me the most frustrated is the players' posture. Tail between legs. Nobody looks pissed or ready to take over.
— John Goebel (@ProfessorJG_22) September 27, 2014
I think a big part of this formation/plan is to run some clock while the offense runs & rest UC defense.

— Cincinnati Bearcats (@GoBEARCATS) September 27, 2014
The polar opposite of what Ohio State needed going into half.
— Land-Grant Holy Land (@Landgrant33) September 27, 2014
Don't look now, but the #Bearcats just threw their way back into this game.
— Tom Gelehrter (@Tommy_G) September 27, 2014

Why is Cincinnati punting here? YOUR DEFENSE HAS GIVEN UP 50. Do you want to win, or want to lose by less points?

I can handle the atrocious defense. I can even handle the loss. What I really can't handle is the 2 give up punts at the end of the game.
