I understand the reason behind it, but I would like to feel that we would be a position that we had nothing left to prove. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be only two teams in all of FBS who haven't tried to run up the score and they are named Idaho State and UMass. Other then those two, the rest would be hypocrites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to do it and nobody cares if we beat them by 7 more points. This will come back to bite us at some point, its called karma 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awwww were we being meanies by trying to score late? When ECU had the ball last, did they take a knee? Nope. Then why should we? Because we might hurt someone's feelings? It's freaking football. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TallyBull Posted October 8, 2016 Group: Member Topic Count: 23 Content Count: 3,686 Reputation: 1,188 Days Won: 14 Joined: 01/19/2011 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) How quickly we forget how horrid this football team has been since Leavitt left. We are ONLY NOW STARTING to rebuild our image in the community. And it will take several more years of winning consistently before we get 40,000 fans to come out at noon against a team most people in Tampa (except diehards like us) could give two ***** about. Another thing. So very tired about the lectures about attendance. I don't live in Tampa, but I've got season tickets and I make sure I'm there or at least a family member is. I'm doing my part. But it'll take time, and IMHO lecturing the fanbase (in particular the ones who bother to follow USF on social media - you know, people who care and usually do show up) isn't going to accomplish anything. Just piss fans off. Anyways, let them score whenever and however they want. If other teams / coaches don't like it, screw them. This team is fun to watch, and most people outside of Tampa hate us anyways. "Sportsmanship" isn't going to get more butts in the seats or get us more love from ESPN - but more points will usually command respect if nothing else. /rant Edited October 8, 2016 by TallyBull 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
