Nippert is Back: UC Bearcats vs Alabama A&M Bulldogs Preview

CINCINNATI, Ohio  -- On September, 5th the Bearcats and Bulldogs will collide at the newly renovated Nippert Stadium. This will be the first Bearcats game at the new Nippert, so that in itself will make the night special.

The game is set to start at 7 PM and this will be the first game for both teams. The Bearcats are one of the favorites in the AAC while the Bulldogs are picked to be in the middle of the pack in the Southwestern Atlantic Conference.

The Bearcats return a lot of fire power on offense as Gunner Kiel, Mike Boone, Chris Moore, Mekale McKay and Shaq Washington all return. Kiel, who is fully healthy, will lead the offense and has a good chance to improve on his stellar first year with the Bearcats.

I've already highlighted how good this trio of receivers are, so I don't think the Bulldogs will have must in terms of talent to control this group. Mike Boone last year's leading rusher as a freshman will be joined in the back field with junior Tion Green will be back sharing some ofC the load, also a sprinkle of Hosey Williams. The real question will be out the defense looks, but tonight I don't expect the Bearcats and their defense to be tested much if at all.
