The University of Cincinnati has declared Thursday's Skyline Chili Crosstown Shootout game vs. Xavier a Ring of Red game with UC fans encouraged to wear red to the 9 p.m. contest.
While Bearcat fans are encouraged to wear red at all UC games, a tradition was started in 2002 in which special games were designated for the show of exceptional support in which UC fans would ring Fifth Third Arena in red.
Cincinnati has claimed five Ring of Red victories since its inception. Those games are listed on a plaque in Fifth Third Arena.
