A look at the Bearcats

We all saw the bowl game over the winter break as the Bearcats took on the Gators in the Sugar Bowl. For many fans this was a dissappointing and even embarrassing defeat at the hands of an undeniably good Florida Gators team. What we need to look to in the future is to create a more defensive minded team, yes our team has one of the greatest offensive forces in the country, but defense wins games. In order to keep up with these big teams we need to build our team from the ground up, starting with our recruits. Butch Jones needs to go after bigger and faster players for our front seven on defense. A good core of linebackers and defensive lineman will tremendously help us to stop the run of opposing offenses and as soon as that is taken care of we can look on to the pass defense. We will have to be very patient because this could take up to two maybe three years in order to have a consistent team. Though this is a low point UC fans should hold their heads high for the future.
