GAME DAY vs Houston

Riding the best start in program history (7-0), a nation-leading 12-game win streak and having already equaled the program’s most ever wins over three seasons (26), USF returns to Raymond James Stadium for the Salute to Service Game. The USF-Houston series is tied and this will be the first meeting since 2014. Houston has won the last two meetings. USF is 17-3 in AAC games over the last three seasons, has won eight straight AAC games overall and won nine straight AAC home games, last falling at home to Memphis (24-17) on Oct. 2, 2015.

UNBEATENS: USF is one of eight remaining unbeaten teams in the nation, two of which reside in The American. No. 17/14 USF is joined by No. 18/17 UCF (6-0) and No. 24/- Memphis (6-1) from The American in the AP Top 25.

SALUTE TO SERVICE: USF will honor military service members and first responders Saturday. Junior linebacker Anthony Beko is a former marine who served in Afghanistan. USF will sport special uniforms based on the camouflage pattern of World War II era aircraft at Henderson Air Field, which previously occupied the site of the USF campus.

10K & 100 ON HORIZON: Quinton Flowers is closing quickly on 10,000 total offense yards (9,671) and 100 total TD responsible for (95). He also is near becoming just the 7th FBS player to post 7,000 passing and 3,000 rushing yards.

MOST SUCCESSFUL ERA: USF’s record 12-game win streak is the longest nationally. USF’s 25 wins over 29 games mark the winningest period in program history and among the top three nationally over that period.

30-POINT SCORING STREAK: USF is riding an NCAA AP Poll era record (since 1936) scoring 30 or more points in 24 straight games, breaking the previous mark set by Oregon (23, 2011-12).
