Hail Mary Haiku: Cincinnati Bearcats Week

It's time for the Hail Mary Haiku, Cincinnati Bearcats edition.

Here's the concept for those new to RTT this season: You're behind by four at midfield. Only one second remains on the clock, and you have to heave the ball into a mass of players in the end zone and hope that by some miracle one of your guys comes down with it. Bonus points for actually observing the traditional 5-7-5 format for haikus, but free form haikus are allowed. This is, after all, a desperation play. Like most desperation plays, it will most often be quite ugly, but that's okay. Heave away.
