So if we get the st pete bowl(one of the first bowls) do we still get 15 practices?

Actually Miami would be worse. St. Pete is almost 4 weeks away.

I'm sure Brad will be excited about the extra bowl posts on TheBullsPen.

No one is saying extra practices = guaranteed success the following season. 

Extra football is never a bad thing.

Not making the AACCG this year gives our team a reason to be pissed off and strive to be the undeniable division champs next year and play for - and win - the game.

It's not the extra practices that count, it's making the extra practices count.

Which is fine but not  necessarily a huge competitive advantage. 

It's impossible to quantify because you never know the answer to "what ifs". But there are certainly ways to frame it in a positive light - only one time in the program's history have we gotten these extra practices and failed to go to a bowl the next year. Who knows how much of a contribution it really makes to next season, but I've always heard that the coaches consider it incredibly valuable so that's good enough for me.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
