The Crosstown Shootout is one of the best rivalries in all of sport. All the normal cliches around rivalries like “it just means more” and “it divides households” all hold true but this game is truly more than that.

It runs deep in Cincinnati. We have seen massive upsets, Two coaches in Chris mack and Mick Cronin who grew up in Cincy, played against each other in HS, played at Xavier and UC, and then went on to coach at alma mater. We have seen a brawl and atmospheres that are like no other.  Xavier vs Cincinnati is as intense as it gets. The schools are only 3 miles apart and every year the city comes to a standstill as these two battle it out. Neither school has an issue getting up for this one.

With that said we still had to put together something special for this one. It’s the only hype video you need to get set for this fiery rivalry.
