Better than last year

MUCH better than the two previous to that

Offense has been stupendous

Defense has done "barely just enough" and is worse than last year

Overall, yes it's improved, but NOT as good as we could have been

This!

Stop looking through green & gold colored glasses and watch the game again; the defense has not improved.  They gave up numerous long plays against SMU. 

Stop looking at it through misery. The defense got THREE turnovers, where they haven't done so before. That is objectively an improvement, regardless of how many yards they gave up.

Nowhere did I state that the defense played great, nor even to an acceptable level. Instead some people love to just hate, instead of looking at things objectively. If you can't see that there was an improvement, then you are looking at it with differently colored glasses, not me.

2 ... 4 ... 8 ... 9.

Only a fool would say there hasn't been improvement.

We need to get to 16 wins if we want to continue the trend.

If we lose to UCF, it won't feel like an improvement.

No need to put record in quotes.  It would be, in fact, a record number of wins and of course it means something.  No USF team has ever done it.

Has any USF team ever had this weak a schedule? Leavitt always tried to follow the Bowden mantra of anyone anywhere. Landscape has changed a bit and it has become difficult to schedule those kind of games.

 

I think it has clearly been an improvement - but I think this is far from the best USF team ever (as a best record my indicate).

This is not true.  We've always played a FCS team and a lower leveled FBS team

Besides, coach doesn't make the schedule, the AD does

Yep, an improvement. 

How could you say otherwise, having just marked the first ten-win season in our history?:GoBulls:
