Archie Bell and the Drells classic tighten up was playing just before Cincinnati took a 14-10 lead into halftime against the "Run and Raid" offense of SMU.
Garrett Gilbert showed why he leads the nation in total offense by leading the Mustangs on an 80-yard, game opening drive that appeared to be effortless. Gilbert ran for 13 yards and passed for 83 in the quarter. He capped off the Mustang's initial drive with a three-yard run with 9:04 left in the first quarter.
Brendon Kay was sacked on a fourth and one from the SMU 40 by Jonathan Yenga.
Gilbert had the Mustangs on the move again but the Bearcats defense took a cue from Archie Bell and the Drells and tightened up.
The drive stalled at the UC 31. Chase Hover missed a 48-yard field goal.
Kay threw and interception that Gilbert and his offense turned into a field goal
The Bearcats took control from there with the aid of two short SMU punts.
Kay threw a touchdown pass to Chris Moore that covered the last 17 yards of a 75-yard drive.
Mike Loftus punt gave Cincinnati the ball on its own 38. Kay's 68-yard strike to Mekale McKay put the Bearcats ahead 14-10 with 5:59 left in the half.
With 10 seconds remaining, Hover's 24-yard field goal attempt hit the right upright.
Cincinnati took the 14-10 lead into the halftime break.
