OXFORD, Ohio -- , In a game where they never trailed, the Cincinnati Bearcats grinded out a 27-16 victory over Miami (Ohio) on Saturday to win the 128th Battle for the Victory Bell and take the bell back to Clifton. The Bearcats took advantage of a fumbled snap on a punt attempt by Miami early in the second quarter, scored on a 3-yard touchdown on the next play to take a 10-3 lead, and they never relinquished the lead the rest of the game. After rushing for just 43 yards in the first half, the Bearcats finished with 215 rushing yards. Running back Evan Pryor broke the game open with a 65-yard rushing touchdown early in the fourth quarter that gave the Bearcats a 24-10 lead.
