The Bearcats have lost three straight games.

“We did some good things, but obviously we did some bad things as well,” coach Scott Satterfield said after the loss to Iowa State, via Sports Illustrated. “Ultimately, it was a great battle. I thought it was a great football game up until the last seven minutes. We need to learn how to finish as a program.

“You can’t play well for 54 minutes; you have to play well for 60 minutes. You can’t relax or give in, you can’t make mistakes in the last six minutes against good football teams because this is what will happen. That’s the bottom line: they finished, we didn’t.”

"I told the guys, I'll take ownership on this one," coach Chris Klieman said after the loss to Arizona State, via CJOnline. "Austin Moore is not going to let me do that, but I'm going to take it, because the whole program is on me, and I didn't do a good enough job with the game plans. I didn't do a good enough job with the players."
