The original plan was for Cincinnati to hold its senior night Thursday when it hosted SMU. By Friday night, however, that was altered, thanks to positive COVID-19 tests within the Mustangs' program. And instead, the Bearcats hastily threw together a senior day Sunday against Memphis.
It appears that Cincinnati's senior class will indeed get one more game at Fifth-Third Arena.
On Monday night, the Bearcats announced they've set a game Thursday against Vanderbilt. The game will be televised on ESPN+ and tip at 7 pm ET.
The Commodores are 7-13 on the season and 3-11 in the SEC. They also play tomorrow night at LSU and Saturday at Ole Miss.
Cincinnati sits at 9-9 overall, 7-6 in the AAC. But for the Bearcats, it will at least be another chance to play at home for seniors Keith Williams, Chris Vogt and walk-ons Sam Martin and Adam Cook.
