The computers loved us and the humans hated us. We might have crashed the party in 2007 had we gone undefeated but the screwjob at futgers took us out. Well, that and the three other losses.

We had a "conditional" bowl bid from C-USA to go to Hawaii, but in the end that didn't happen. Being left out then, is second only to losing @RU in 2007.

Are you sure we were ranked that year in the BCS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, I know in 2007 we finished number 25 in the BCS I thought that was the only time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This board was in existence back then, but those posts are no longer in our archive. I'm sure that some of the old members remember threads about that and it stuck with me. This was a thread from 2009 talking about what happened in 2002, but it does not mention BCS ranking.

If you are talking 2002, the BCS rankings only went to 15 and we are not listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, that would explain the situation. IF it had been based on the top 25 teams, I believe USF would have been ranked #24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
