Today, we discuss the college football history of the Cincinnati Bearcats. This program, dating back to 1885, has a long and storied history. One legendary coach with an outstanding four-year stretch, one coach that led the program to both the Sugar Bowl and the Orange Bowl, one coach that made the Bearcats a mainstay in the final AP Poll, one quick scoring explosion to secure a stunning upset, one tough Sugar Bowl outing to derail a perfect season, one four-year stretch of excellence spanning 1951-1954, one tale of two undefeated teams in the regular season, one quarterback with the perfect deep pass, one triple threat Bearcat, one Battle for the Victory Bell, one strange tale of three ties in a season, one season of shutouts, and of course, one Bearcat.
