Some USF - Cincy trivia courtesy Jim Louk:

Here's some trivia as we prepare for our 15^th meeting against the Bearcats:

• Homecoming games have been a mixed bag for the Bulls; they are 11-9 overall.  After losing its first-ever Homecoming game on Oct. 18, 1997, USF reeled off six Homecoming wins in a row.  Since then though, they Bulls never won more than two straight.
• This is the second time Cincinnati has been USF's Homecoming opponent.  The first was back on Oct. 31, 2003 in a Conference USA matchup. The Bulls won, 24-17, in double overtime, in a game sealed by an interception by Lee Roy Selmon, Jr.
• That 2003 game was the first meeting between USF and Cincinnati.  The teams have been in three conferences together over the years; Conference USA, the Big East, and now The American.
• The series, which Cincinnati leads, 8-6, includes a very rare Sunday night game, won by the Bearcats at Nippert Stadium on Oct. 22, 2006.  The Bulls have won the last two meetings, and three of the last four.
• The last time the teams met in Tampa (Nov. 20, 2015), the Bulls scored 51 first half points on the way to a 65-27 win.
• This game marks the 11^th anniversary of a road 37-20 win over North Carolina on Oct. 14, 2006.  The Bulls lost on the road to West Virginia on Oct. 14, 2010, making them 1-1 on this date.

That was the first game we ever attended.

20 minutes prior to kickoff and student section mostly full. We need to get alumni out of the club prior to kickoff

We really need to get more people in the stadium 30 minutes before kickoff

It's not the students today, it's the alumni dropping the ball
