You can't compare USF to NDSU or UND.  I'm from North Dakota.  When I lived there, whether you had attended college or not, you pledged allegiance to one school or the other.   A lot of NDSU fans are the midwest version of Cane fans.  They didn't actually go to the school, but then cheer on the team and attend its games. 

With state schools in Florida having already established those sorts of fan allegiances, USF can only really rely on its alumni and their associates for support.  So, North Dakota college football is not a fair comparison to USF college football.  IMO

1) USF
2) 45 - 34
3) Flowers
4) Adams
5) 452

I know it's far fetched and the practical answer isn't the exciting one, but it's fun to think about: 

All-time USF offensive All Star team (besides players on THIS team) vs This season's offense??

Pretty sure you go with the former.  But the fact that its seems a remotely reasonable question speaks volumes about the talent on this offense.

So close

Never got firstrow to work for me tonight. First time thats been the case in the 2 or 3 seasons since I dropped cable. Used chrome with regular adblock plus; will have to try a different combo next time. I hate that I feel criminal doing this. I never even thought of it, but does any legal way even exist to pay to stream USF, outwide of a full cable package? That would be legit. 

Tonight, I depended on Louk's call on tuneinn, which I actually enjoy. 

1) USF
2) 45 - 27
3) Mack
4) MVS
5) 407

Scary thought: this defense versus the old Big East running backs. Shady, Ray Rice. Our tackling is shameful. Hate being negative

Thought you lived in the DC, Virginia area??? The mind is gone or please tell me you moved.

Must be a Tampa - DC - California migration pattern.  I did the same thing!

Dalvin Cook could carry this team to the acc title game by himself. Yes we tackled like crap, but Cook is probably the best running back we have ever played against. He could be starting in the NFL right now. 

I guess I'm derailing this further (sorry!) but I wonder who is the best back we have ever faced.  Cook's up there.  Was it Jonathan Stewart who gashed us in the Sun Bowl?  El Paso. Shudder. 

My heart and brain are not aligned: 

1. FSU

2. 37 - 34

3. Flowers

4. Elkanah Dillon

5. 441

I hate to sound like I'm indicting anyone, but 20 year-old kids  have promised us their max effort in a violent game for our entertainment, and we can't be bothered to match their enthusiasm by wearing green for a few hours?  Seems weak.  Though, I'm throwing stones from 3,000 miles away (while wearing green, however!)

Ultimately, I'm just happy that fans will be in the stands.  I guess I was just surprised by some of the responses in this thread.  Totally unexpected, actually.  

Usf

37 - 24

Mack

MVS

431

Usf

38-27

Tice

Mvs

Like the faith from coach

Yeah, QF just needs to slow down a bit

Thor's doing a decent job on the tunein feed.

Bowlsby told reporters at the game he is confident the conference's university presidents will make progress on their expansion discussions by the time they meet in mid-October.

"I don't have a vote," Bowlsby said. "That's at the behest of the presidents and chancellors. I am confident they will make progress (by Oct. 17)."

Whats up with the url to to that story?  LOL

I'm interested in UCLA/TAMU.  1) Because I live out here, and Josh Rosen intrigues me, but mostly 2) If a "power" Pac-12 team loses to a middling SEC team, you gotta figure that hurts the conference rep vis-a-vis the playoff, leaving room for an undefeated AAC team.    

And, you know, if I'm gonna dream of a big USF season, I'm gonna dream real BIG.  

1) USF
2) 48 - 13
3) Mack
4) Barr
5) 472

I haven't had cable for over two years now, haven't missed it once, and would still drop $200 for a year of USF sports.  Even for games I don't watch, it'd make for good background noise and I constantly have something playing.  I'm kind of a scrooge and I'd do it in a second.
