BOSTON — The UC Bearcats could not get the final win in 2022 they were looking for at the Wasabi Fenway Bowl against the Louisville Cardinals Saturday.
At the close of the 4th quarter, the final score was 24 Cardinals, and 7 Bearcats.
This bowl game renewed the two team's longstanding rivalry, the Battle for the Keg of Nails.
The two schools have not faced each other since 2013, when they both belonged in the American Athletic Conference. The bowl game marks the 54th meeting between the two programs, but the Bearcats lead the rivalry 30-22-1.
Despite that all-time record, the Cardinals have also won the last two meetings.
The Bearcats were coached by interim head coach Kerry Coombs after former-Louisville-coach-turned-newly-signed UC coach Scott Satterfield said he would coach neither team in the bowl game.
