We will know in less than 24 hours. I had zero nervousness for our first two games as I figured we would win the first and lose the second. However, this one is different as it could go either way.

This game, in my opinion will tell us if USF is a contender or pretender. Lose it and I can see how fans will be saying here we go again. Win it and everyone is on board. With a loss I can also see it impacting the confidence of the team as they start to prepare for Memphis. Beat Maryland and I can see this te feeling like they are going to run table.

My nervousness is already here.

You're spot on...this game is the litmus test for this team and probably CWT's career here. I've got some butterflies in my stomach too. Luckily butterflies die in copious amounts of alcohol.

Seems like it. I saw enough to make me think we could possibly be decent in conference play...but I could see us finishing winless too. The fun of being a USF fan continues.

Yep, pretender. Hope I am wrong but I doubt it.

Contender v. pretender? Can't we just enjoy the situation after 3 full seasons of ****?

This thread is insane.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
