Cincinnati’s sports teams have seemingly taken ownership of their UCLA counterpart over the last several months, and Bearcats fans were happy to point that out during their latest triumph.
The Cincinnati men’s basketball team demolished UCLA by a score of 93-64 on Wednesday night. Roughly three months earlier, the Bearcats spoiled Chip Kelly’s UCLA debut with a 26-17 win in Pasadena. When Cincy was up by 30 on Thursday, fans began chanting “just like football!”

There’s really not much Bruins fans can say about that. You wouldn’t expect a school like Cincinnati to be able to taunt UCLA that way, but that tells you all you need to know about the current state of their respective athletic programs.
