Brady Lichtenberg News, Rumors, Updates - Cincinnati Bearcats

Shares duties in bowl game Lichtenberg was 10-for-15 passing for 78 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Friday's 35-13 loss versus Navy.

Impact Lichtebnberg was more to the passing aspects of the offense, and those opportunities were not quite as fruitful as they could have been due to a hefty rainstorm throughout the contest. He still finished the day having completed two-thirds of his passes but only threw for 78 yards and turned the ball over as many times as he threw for touchdowns. Lichtenberg's college career comes to a close following the bowl game, and he seems an unlikely candidate to pursue a professional career in the sport.
