WEST HARRISON, -- The University of Cincinnati football team held its 10th day of preseason practice on Wednesday, Aug. 16 with two-a-days at . Planning to conduct a scrimmage on Thursday morning, the coaching staff emphasized timing in an effort to keep bodies fresh.
"The coaching staff has made some structural decisions based upon our performance and tomorrow will be the first time since the spring that we will put all of the things together," stated Head Coach Mark Dantonio. "We will work on situations. It will be interesting to see how people do. This is an important scrimmage."
The Bearcats cut down the length of both practice sessions on Wednesday. The morning scrimmage will be the lone action on the field tomorrow.
Dantonio added, "I know we are tough, but I am looking for the guys on defense who can tackle in space. When the ball gets out in space, we need to make plays. On offense, we need to find guys who can make those plays in space."
