79 Bull

Thanks, all.  Son and I are hockey fans looking for a fix.

USFGirl, remember to put up a reminder about the GA game just prior.

UAB will not destroy us!

MG, on your pictures a UL fan said the stomping on the logo occured while their band was playing the national anthem.  Please tell us that is totally false.  I do see everyone is standing up.

You've got to be kidding.  Is this for real or a doctored photo for our amusement?

The article I read said Zook is fired "as of the end of the season" and will be coaching this Saturday.  Bizarre - how can he show his face in Jax this weekend?

Teaching players discipline in all aspects of the game.

What time are the Ice Bulls games?  Their schedule does not list times.

Is there a charge to watch a game?

Funny how Dragon's Lair is starting to parallel our board.

A bit of a downturn and team personnel suck, looking forward to basketball season, etc.

Should make for an interesting 10 days on both boards.

that is assuming that they are even eligible.. they still have UGA, USC and FSU left

Good point.  That would make them 5-6.  It sure would make Foley's life easier to not have to get into the bowl decision or fire a guy that is over 500.

I must say all this pre-planned trash, thuggery and hotdogging is getting very old.

I guess I am old school, but you get your college education paid because you are EXPECTED to make tackles, catch passes and win games.  For expected actions, don't taunt other players, mug to the cameras or (worst of all) point to the sky like the man above supported you and not your opponent.

Just head to the sidelines with a smile on your face like you do it all the time.  The fans, media and scouts will take notice.

Only thing I liked about the game was the reduction in silly penalties, however you can tell by the injuries that Louisville manhandled us.

You didn't say "Leavitt will destroy us!"

I find that encouraging.

Will Florida accept a bowl bid to a game below the Outback?  Options are Peach, Independence, Houston or Music City.  I would bet their AD will pressure the Pres not to accept a bid to these lesser bowls to prove the point he is committed to turning this around and a lesser bowl is not acceptable to UF.

T-man, your records are not right.  But I am with you on the Drive for 5.

#1- SMISS  4-0

#2- LVille    3-0

#3- UAB      3-1

#4- Memphis 2-2

#4- CINN     2-2

#4- TCU      2-2

#7- Army  2-3

#8- Tulane 1-3

#8- ECU  1-3

#8- Houston  1-3

#8- USF  1-3

What is with the trash talk?  Smazza, you are correct - we were getting in guys faces after they ran the ball for 5 yards.  You are EXPECTED to stop the run for a small gain - save the trash talk for a real sack.

6 catchable passes not made by 4 different receivers?  Are they hearing footsteps?

SC, your last post was at 3:45.  As such a fan, shouldn't you be lining up on that bridge or tunnel or whatever for that card walk thing?

I forget we are 5-0 against the NBE.  I will now enjoy that thought until about 9pm.

Gap in teeth = Lauren Hutton.

We must go the Big East and CUSA officials NOW to:

1.  Get a ruling on our CUSA mandatory opponent - does UCF count or not?  Is it a specificed team or anyone we can negotiate with?

2.  Get their backing and help with persuading MWC/WAC/MAC/SB schools to accept 1 for 1's (or just 1 for none paydays).

Are we the only NBE team with 2 unannounced opponents for 2005?

We need to find a team for next year that has already scheduled 2 OOC opponents at home and none away for a 1A payday to come to RayJay.  My look at the future schedules shows Nevada as the only team in this position:

Now that I look at that site, if it is accurate, ALL of the NBE teams have 1, 2 or 3 openings.  We are probably competing for the same OOC opponents - the league must get involved now.

CFN C-USA prediction:

Game of the Week

South Florida (2-3) at Louisville (4-1), 8:00 ESPN

Why to watch: Louisville didn’t get the win over Miami last week, but it certainly got national respect in the 41-38 loss. As painful and emotional as that was, the Cardinals have to put their eyes back on the prize or risk seeing the Conference USA title hopes take a step back against a South Florida team just decent enough to pull off the upset. The Bulls are coming off a loss to Army, but this is a traditionally decent program good enough to come up with a big offensive performance is Louisville isn’t mentally there.

Why South Florida might win: The only chance the Bulls have is if Louisville is still thinking about the Miami loss. They were able to play Southern Miss well in a 27-20 loss and beat TCU in overtime, but neither of those teams are Louisville. The defense is currently second in Conference USA in total D allowing 351 yards per game, so if the offense can cut down on the mistakes, this might be closer than UL fans are hoping for.

Why Louisville might win: South Florida isn’t playing that well in any phase. The defense is giving up a ton of points while the offense is generating more turnovers than big plays. USF’s defense isn’t ball-hawking enough to force the mistakes needed to win a road game like this, while the offense doesn’t have nearly enough firepower to hang punch for punch with the loaded Cardinal attack.

Who to watch: Cardinal quarterback Stefan LeFors is back and ready to roll after getting knocked out of the Miami game with a concussion. South Florida needs quarterback Pat Jumiste to be a sharper passer to go along with his running skills. The sophomore was able to run for 90 yards and two touchdowns against Army, but he only completed 10 of 23 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown with an interception. Junior Andre Hall has been the main man in the attack tearing off a 200-yard, two touchdown day against the Black Knights and rushing for 119 yards and three scores against TCU.

What will happen: Louisville will rebound, but South Florida will come through with a few big plays early.

CFN Prediction: Louisville 52 … South Florida 20 ... Line: Louisville -27

With my heart:

BULLS

27-26

Well, on the flip side, we are probably a few missed tackles from being 4-1.

Exactly, that is they play the games and we go support them at the stadium.  We truly are a couple dropped/bad passes and missed tackles away from being 4-1.

NE 200 corner was already full with students.  They would have to open NW 200 corner to them and move the very few season ticket holders in those sections.  What a great problem to have to deal with.

There is absolutely no discussion about USF this week at Inside the Ville.

I hope the team is looking past the BULLS as much as the fans are.
