Final Analysis

Though South Florida might not have as much talent as Florida State, the Bulls make do with what they have and the style of offensive attack they run should have the Seminoles worried. Whether they can bounce back or not this week will say a lot about the character of Jimbo Fisher’s team after virtually everything went wrong last week. If the Seminoles can avoid mental errors and breakdowns in the secondary and find a way to protect quarterback Deondre Francois, they should win this one. After watching FSU get manhandled by Louisville, those are big ifs.

Prediction: South Florida 35, Florida State 33

Please, please let it be a bulls win. It's good to see there are some other prognosticators who believe in us. I hope our team believes they can win too. Go Bulls!

We get more respect from the national media.  All 5 in the TBT picked FSU and the local big douche on his radio show said he wasn't worried about FSU beating the Bulls and said the Noles would cover.

We should note that these picks are against the spread, but still, it's nice to see.

I'm getting a little terrified that we're being picked to win by so many. Oddly, it makes a loss seem more likely to me. I don't like us being favored still. Can't wait to see if Taggart can handle expectations better than Leavitt.

Rick Stroud from TBT picked FSU, makes me feel better if he picked USF it would mean guaranteed loss.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
