CCS should have a special incentive to get the team ready for this game.  UCF gave his Louisville team its only defeat in 2013 and kept them out of a possible playoff bowl.  I hope he will have some special plays ready to throw at UCF. 

USF -38 for the best year ever (so far)?  Expectations were too high.

I'm glad we get an SEC opponent, but it's pretty bad when the top two teams in the AAC can't get better than a 6-6 opponent.  Shows how screwed up the current system is.

Yeah, according to sbnation, we would have the better bowl than either Navy, who they projected in the Armed Forces Bowl against a 5-7 Miss St., or Temple in the St. Pete Bowl against South Alabama.

I went to USF after 2 years active duty in the Naval Reserve.  Served on the USS Intrepid during the Vietnam war.  The GI bill back in '72 was only $200 a month, but paid for most of my schooling!

Nice analysis! I agree that the AAC has good parity, more than most conferences.

The trick with Publix Subs, is to ask for it on the Cuban bread. 

All their other breads are SUPER tough. The Cuban bread is the only bread that doesn't rip your gums apart when you bite into it LOL

In Pinellas, at least, the publix Cuban bread is not real Cuban bread.  Real Cuban is hard to get outside of Tampa and its gotta be baked with a palm leaf.

It seems strange that this game is Syracuse's homecoming, especially since their other 2 games were at home.

A great win against Pitt.  The week before we had lost to NIU 17-20.

Ah, finally some smack!  Where's all the Hillfloppers?

Are they here?

I understand that a lot of Temple fans aren't happy playing a MAC team in the little FAU stadium. 

SB Nation today has us in the Cure Bowl against Utah State.

Where were the trick plays?  Same old plays but with more passing.

Do any of the Gramática brothers have an offspring looking for a free college education ??

They're competing for the same airspace as WEDU, which has superior programming, imho.  Both stations have to put on infomercials by medical charlatans to help pay the bills.  One is enough for the Tampa Bay area.

Steve Spurrier might be available after this season.  Perhaps he'd like to retire to the Tampa Bay area...

Great news!

Definitely going to increase my red wine consumption now...

 

We will be waiting

 

You could be waiting a long time.  We've been waiting all season for our team to show up.  

 

Now that's just too funny!

I heard Will Muschamp was writing his resume, but I think he put it on hold for the time being.

Yeah, Bench is only a Junior.

We went up and shocked a heavily favored Pittsburgh in our first full year at 1A, back in 2001.  I believe it was Pitt's first game in their new stadium.   Pitt went bowling that year.  We wound up at 8 - 3 (no bowl).  Can we do that sort of thing again?   Of course, we had Marquel Blackwell and DeAndrew Rubin then.  One of my favorite games.

The Bulls are 4 - 0 against ECU, including a bowl game.  This year may be different...

Made it for the football season.  Can't find an Auburn game picture on line that shows any Auburn players.  Perhaps they removed all of them in disgust!

Will we ever go over 60,000 again like we did several times during the "glory days"?
