When there is a talent disparity, like pretty much any team vs Alabama, you have to execute so well in every phase to win. While the secondary and pass rush have come through, the run defense and offensive line have been bad, and the coaching has been atrocious.
I'm not a huge Ridder guy, but he's been put in an impossible position with a shitty gameplan and its going exactly as I feared. Cincy belonged in this game, thanks to their defense, but the in game coaching has held the offense back tremendously.
Their only chance was to air it out. AL corners are their "weak" link.
