Although if we're being honest the Buckeyes are far and away lead mule in queen city and everyone else is fighting over who gets to be the Buffalo Bills in that Super Bowl showdown.

This shows you know exactly jack sh!t about Cincinnati. Even OSU fans admit that the only city they don't own in Ohio is Cincinnati.

5 minutes was longer than I expected.

To be clear though, Xavier did in fact draw more fans for home games last year than the Bearcats, even with the rivalry game being played at home for Cincy.

Quite a different schedule... That being said, UC needs to do better than 9k a game for sure.

How many people attend sporting events at UC compared to XU?

Exactly.

wrong

Cincy has Buckeye fans, it is not a Buckeye town. Urban Meyer even was quoted in the last year or two saying as much. Its the only town in Ohio that isn't. In Cincinnati, UC is first and foremost for college support. Ohio state is actually behind XU in town. UofL, UK, and Notre Dame also have fans in Cincy but the annual poll every single year has UC FAR and AWAY #1 for college allegiance. Of course UC is behind both the Reds and Bengals for overall fan support.

I concur. Don't ya just love how fans from other programs think they know more about Cincinnati and our fan base?

Well, if you lived and went to school at Wheat U, you would probably be more interested in other cities as well.

Let's not undersell cleverness, 6 out of the last 8 responses ITT seem to have had their jimmies rustled enough to be reeled in (5 of which after the pot-stirring emoji which was shamefully ignored in fits of queen city rage). It's almost as if this is a sensitive subject and the response could have been anticipated.

When I lived there for about a year and a half, the split during hoops season seemed to fall something along the lines of 35% Bearcats, 20% Xavier, 20% Buckeyes, 10% Kentucky, 10% Louisville, 5% whatever else. During football season, most seemed to forget UC existed and would jump aboard tOSU and ND's respective bandwagons (Kentucky and Louisville would magically disappear from the give a darn radar until November as well).

The Bearcats have carved out a nice niche in their hometown but seem to dramatically underachieve, at least compared to Xavier, given the breadth of local support and resources at hand. The fact that Xavier outdraws the Bearcats in men's hoops is a point of shame that I hope you folks remedy quickly, as it should never happen.

what year were you there?

Also...a poll comes out annually asking people to rate in order their likes in local sports.

It is broken down in Reds, Bengals, UC fb, UC bb, XU bb, OSU fb, OSU bb, etc.

Bengals, Reds, UC FB, are always #1-3.

OSU bb is usually #10-12.

So the “20%” eye test you have is wrong.

Mid 2000s, at the end of the Huggy era and the immediate aftermath. Bearcats football averaged somewhere around 20k per game back then, and that was a pretty generous accounting. Their following pre-November was non-existent at that time - I'm sure it cycled up under Kelly and Jones, and has probably spiraled back into the toilet this year.

20% for OSU's rooting allegiance in hoops might be off by a bit, but the poll you cite is a poor way of illustrating it. The slot in a hierarchy of any college rooting interests vis a vis the Reds and Bengals is not relevant. If there is a city-wide poll asking "what college hoops team do you support?" instead of "what's your #1 rooting interest across all pro and college sports?", that would be a better indicator. I think tOSU's share of the market for hoops probably isn't that far off if you register interest strictly versus other schools in the market.

Regardless of the current status of rooting interests in Cincy, I want to see this **** corrected. There should be NO advantage gained whatsoever by a Podunk lil' private in Xavier over a massive research institution in UC. Get this **** corrected, and correct it now mmkay? This Holy Nova and the 9 dwarfs story was cute, but it's getting tired. Each one of us is responsible for eradicating the Church League from the NCAA's. We've taken care of our regional appointment in Creighton (without even playing them), Cincy needs to get Xavier back under their thumb. Temple can take St. Johns and UConn can handle Providence. I don't know the regional rivalries back east. You know who your school is. The Church League is where our bids will come easiest.

Cincy fan was boasting how Xavier views the game between them as their Super Bowl. Well if they do then they're smart. The measuring stick for the Big Pee is the American and the measuring stick for the American is the Big Pee. One of the two leagues will get the lion's share of the bids. Forget about your rich history and feigned superiority. Bring your lunch buckets to these Big Pee games and get it done. It's been said that Xavier makes special plays especially for UC yet UC treats it like just another game. Dumb. Wise up before you become obsolete in your own city.

And in case you still aren't clear... the X game IS your Super Bowl until you fix the recent series.

Yeah. wrong again ol sport. But we appreciate your views. Its always fun seeing input from someone who is clueless. Instead of facts (updated annually) you use a year and half time slice from mod 2000’s after UC hoops was gutted and the FB team had yet to achieve national status.

When someone tells an intentional lie than people get their jimmies up. You call OSU the lead mule, than you back peddle and say you knew it was something less. If I were to say that Wichita never made a final four, would you let that go?
