Episode 58 -WE BACK

Episode 56 - Misery Loves Company [w/ Justin Williams] by VIVA LA CATS

Episode 56 - Misery Loves Company [w/ Justin Williams]

This has been a whirlwind few weeks between the ups and downs of Bearcats football and basketball, and it honestly could be the 4th or 5th episode named some version of "Cardiac Cats". The Football team traveled down to Memphis in a very hostile environment and put a freshman under the helm; they may have paid for that with a loss, but we discuss why that may or may not exactly be the case. Nonetheless, they travel BACK TO MEMPHIS AGAIN for a consecutive weekend, but with all the more stakes involved... AAC Title Game (and the winner likely gets the Cotton Bowl). Bearcats basketball also took some close calls with 3 straight OT games, winning two of those. We review the wins in OT against Valpo and UNLV, then preview the night's game against Vermont and this weekend's game against Norwood State. Finally, the Bengals WON A GAME and the Reds made a big FA signing. Lots to look forward to!

Episode 55 - Close Calls

VIVA La Cats is a show that's by the common Bearcat, for the common Bearcat. Joel Spencer, Justin Hiles, Josh Miller and Kyle Schneider bring you the best in UC sports, news and stories along with guests every Monday.
