Bearcats Undefeated, Really, Really Bad
By Gerard Oh | Dealer staff writer    Wed, Nov 23, 2005
 

CORRYVILLE - The UC men's basketball team barely squeaked by veritable OVC powerhouse Murray State Saturday night in a 79-75 overtime win.  During the game, thousands of "Ohmigod, they look really bad" echoed across the city, as Bearcat after Bearcat attempted to take his man one-on-one before wildly flinging up a shot that sometimes went in... *COUGH*White*COUGH*, or firing up a jumpshot from outside 15 ft. every freakin time... *COUGH*Kirkland*COUGH*.

It was Andy Kennedy's coaching debut, and the first game in 16 years without Bob Huggins.

The 'Cats found some sort of offense on Tuesday night, when they roundly defeated an Illinois State team, 76-59, who evidently stole their mascot from Louisville.  Freshman guard, Devan "So long Jihad" Downey scored 21 points in just his second collegiate game offering some hint of optimism.

The undefeated Bearcats take on Holy Cross on Friday, Nov. 25 at Fifth Third Arena.
