I’m at the game today. Might be the last game I make this season if my work schedule continues to be a convoluted mess. That might explain why I left a wife with a sinus infection and a son that vomited in the bed last night. The other explanation is I just didn’t want to deal with that sort of thing, but that would make me seem like a selfish ass.
The lovely and talented Luke will be moderating the liveblog tonight for your pleasure. I’ll be offering livetweets throughout the game, and depending on my battery life, the nature of the game, and getting the app to work correctly — I might try to check into the liveblog at halftime.
It’s supposed to be a sunny day, leading to a crisp evening. Should be a great day for tailgating. The game is at 7pm on ESPNU.
I do not know what to expect from this game. I don’t know what the offense will do. I don’t know if the defense is going to keep playing outstanding,
I don’t know what Cinci will be like in this game. They struggled to beat USF on the road. Handled Lousiville at home — at least in the second half. They have a 6-1 record, but it’s about as impressive as Penn State’s 8-1 record. They boast quality talent at the skill positions on offense, but have struggled against decent to good defenses.
