Also, it was for his players who were playing their last game as a Bull after winning four games in their USF careers. He gave them the best gift and memory that he could. He played the depth players and let them make memories and brags, too. Class act.

I am so good at this that I had us winning only three games this year. That being said, I'll venture a ten to nine win season next year (being ranked at the end of the season). We have the coach, QB, WRs and our defense has shown that it can rise to the occasion. Coach is building a strong foundation with HS recruits, so I would say that the year after will go down in the history books for USF.

Now, at least, when coach says "act like you've been here before", they'll know what that means. This team has "been there" now.

Good rundown, Owen. I met my wife at Oswego St. back in the seventies. Love that area of the state.

USF Football is back - D. Evans

Lol. You don't know how many times I've deleted gifs like that after inserting them. I try to respect the fact that not all people see it as medicine. But - Party on, Garth!

I have been waiting years to buy a system so I could play NCAA football when it comes back. It's all I ever played on my PS2 and XBOX. Now I am so old that I don't know what to buy. But, yes, if I can figure out what to get I will get it.

USF 38-28 Wright Atkins 475

Things may have changed since I lived up there (color TV, gps, microwaves, etc.) but the NE is not into college sports (except maybe BB) like here in the South. If they travel well, I would be pleasantly surprised.

I think we need to put our ring on a different finger or something. As soon as mine went on I lost 40 IQ points.

My wife likes it. She says I would have made the perfect Shultz since I have been practicing my lines for 46 years.

Our reader: We should reflect on the history of Syracuse's nickname - The Daily Orange DAILYORANGE.COM Our reader imagines if Syracuse University and The Onondaga Nation collectively influenced Syracuse's nickname. Continue reading → In 1931, based on a campus connection with the Onondaga Nation, Syracuse University adopted the Orangemen nickname and Saltine Warrior logo. In the 1950s the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity added a human Indian mascot to the mix. That scenario lasted until the 1970s when concerns were first raised about the manner in which the Onondagan culture was being (mis)represented by the logo and mascot. In 1978 a pow wow between the Onondagans, the fraternity and the university resulted in the termination of the logo and the mascot. The nickname lived on until 2005 when it was officially shortened to just “Orange.” So, Orange must refer to the skin color of the native population in NY history.

Well, like they say, if you've seen one you've seen them both

Great, back in a conference with UCF again.

Going to games has gotten too much for me physically but I will drive down to watch you walk into the stadium and wouldn't miss it. We'll form a gauntlet of crossed canes (instead of swords)!

Like I've said, some people would ***** if you hung them with a brand new rope. Right out of the package.

You could have a player who doesn't want to stay on the team, hates the coach, and will not do their best or undermine the team. And they have to stay so they poison the rest of the team. I'd like to see that idea fleshed out, though.

Yup. It's going to take a little while before he can be fully evaluated. Darn good start, though.

Early '70's up in NY but then again, who can remember that decade?

You had me all excited until I looked at my left arm and then my right arm. I have received over forty stitches in them in the last two weeks from manning up in the sun. I get the sentiment, but it's like the old "real fans stand!" declaration. Some can't. Sounds like shade is too expensive. I get it. But it means the difference between some being able to go and not. So, it's not nothing.

Absolutely nothing. Say it again.

I learned to love boiled peanuts but that is a bridge too far.
