From ESPN regarding our matchup with Rice  

LAST 10 GAMES: Owls: 3-7, averaging 72.4 points, 34.1 rebounds, 15.3 assists, 5.6 steals and 3.0 blocks per game while shooting 43.4% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 79.7 points per game.

Bulls: 9-1, averaging 74.1 points, 35.3 rebounds, 14.9 assists, 6.3 steals and 3.7 blocks per game while shooting 44.8% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 68.2 points.

Looks like our defense has been the real difference between our teams over the last 10 games.

There were more hats given out than there were people at that game.   That is what really pissed me off.

You must be including the stadium employees - I saw like six of them pushing trash cans on wheels around wearing the hats as we were walking up to the gate. 
 

I wonder what my reaction would have been had they told me they were out when I walked in?

All, I did not receive an email either, but I did check my ticket account and found the that the STM gift voucher has been added.

why would anyone be against shade?

Cost. No one is going to be against shade if it had no impact on the cost and what may have to be forfeited to provide that.  In this case, it may be that the cost could make the whole project a no-go based on what USF could afford. 

I’m pretty sure no one would stay home because they can’t work on their farmer’s tan at a game.

Guessing alot of students just sat in shade. Still turnout for them probably wasn't great. 

 

Yep. Had one dropped off at the end of the row in front of us to cool off in the shade. Unfortunately, she was then left alone to toss up everything she ate and drank and pass out in her chair. 
 

We had to use the text number to get some paramedics to come over and assist her.

For a bowl game and having a beyond expectation season? Yes. 

For having a successful season compared to the last few? No. 

We're heading in the right direction either way. But **** it would be massive to make a bowl in Year 1. Just ******* huge

Couldn’t say it better myself. 

So we have to see that Discover debit card commercial EVERY break?

GOLD!

So not the same helmet, but it was the first time they wore a white one and a stripe.

Me too!  Just decided that I'm wearing the white 2008 Magic Jack St. Petersburg Bowl tee that my son gifted me from the game.  USF beat Memphis that day!

Someone check my memory, because was that also the first game where we wore this helmet?

Don’t get me wrong- I like that we have a QB that can run, but I do like the fact that he’s no longer the leading rusher on the team. 
 

Hopefully Wright continues to shine and BB can focus on the passing and scrambling when necessary.

With all due respect, hashtags for a disinterested fan base mean nothing. No one is typing those into social media and getting anything trending. No one is seeing anything besides what used to be referred to as “pound sign” and a phrase smushed together as 1 long word. It was trendy in the mid to late 2010s as social media exploded but it’s overdone and comes off as a little boomer these days. 
 

Boomer is a term that refers to older and out of touch people who may or may not try to stay trendy like the kids, but fail. 

Sorry - I was away. Someone need me?

Please explain the 1990 and 1992 NCAA teams then.

Easy - I was on campus and attending the games those years.

I tried generating 16 different times and I guess there aren't enough pictures of Leavitt online for the AI to use.  Each one I did was just an older coach looking man, but it didn't look like Leavitt.  

 

He're a consolation prize....

 

So judging by the lettering on the Bull, it sort of looks like even AI confuses us with the Orlando school.

Sitting next to him in the computer lab on a few occasions was my first brush with USF greatness. 
 

I remember really wanting him to get the ball at the end of the game. You didn’t know if he was going to shoot it or make the perfect choice of whom to pass it to, but there was always hope. 

When was the last time the offense, defense, and special teams all took the ball into end zone?

Ok, let’s stop whining like losers, this is a different team.

That was on the coach. Dumb play call.

Game Eve….

What the hell happened to us?

The first spark of possibility…and nothing?

Where’s the joy?  Where’s the anticipation?  

I get it. It’s been a long and grueling road to two wins (1 FBS).

But radio silence on the eve of possibly becoming conference leaders?  Having an above .500 record?  Beating Navy in their place?

We need to again start our football weekends on Thursday at a minimum, being unable to sleep on Fridays and completely crazy on Saturdays.

Sitting on your hands until game over Saturday is boring.  Let’s do better.  Nobody is judging you.

Have a great weekend returning to the excitement South Florida Football will bring   

Go Bulls!

I’m sorry Brad. I’m really trying, and I really think we have a good chance today, but in the back of my mind I’m still tormented by recent history…

LOL - how did you know ahead of time to highlight the overhang advantage?  Well done.
