Somewhat as expected, Tommy Tuberville announced just before the game to Tom Gelehrter on 700 WLW that Gunner Kiel will be the starter at quarterback, according to . Cincinnati Enquirer UC beat reporter, Tom Groeschen, tweeted throughout the week that both Kiel and Munchie Legaux would play, with the health of Kiel’s ribs being the main concern.
Kiel close to 100 pct, healing and throwing with a lot more authority, Tuberville says. Says open date came at perfect time. #Bearcats

Looks like those prognostications were true as Kiel will lead the Bearcat offense in this pivotal AAC match-up with the ECU Pirates.
Tommy Tuberville just told us Gunner Kiel will start at QB tonight for the #Bearcats vs ECU.
