Looking for a Bearcat Blogger

Throughout the year, I've exchanged Q&As with a blogger from the opposing team prior to each game. There were only two games this year where I couldn't find an opposing blog (ECU and Furman) and a third where the guys I E-mailed about doing a Q&A never replied (Duke). Well, that first category may have company soon. After searching near and far, I can't find an independent Cincinnati Bearcats blogger.

Cincy isn't represented in the BlogPoll and no Google search with the combination of "cincinnati," "bearcat," and "blog" got me anywhere. So now, I'm forced to just come out and plead for someone not affiliated with the mainstream media who happens to blog about the Cincinnati Bearcats to come forward and represent the Big East champs in a friendly question-and-answer session prior to the game.

There has to be someone out there with the same irrational love I have for Hokie football who happens to direct their affection to Cincy sports. I mean, we can't have a BCS team get lumped into the same category as ECU and Furman, can we? The worst case scenario is that I'll approach one of those bloggers that actually gets paid for what they do to field questions. But hopefully it doesn't come to that.

Best thing to do would be find a Cincy message board and plead your case there.

Considering Cincinnati is a growing program it might be hard to find, but someone should be out there. Think about it. Cincinnati use to be a non-conference cupcake we would schedule every few years that were at least D-1 for BCS ranking support unlike a 1AA like JMU.

Pretty sad that we are playing Cincy and are an underdog to boot. Whose next for Tech in a BCS bowl? Temple or Uconn?
