When there's only 1 in your history, it covers a broad spectrum of emotions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me. There is still a chance to make this season everything we hoped it would be. 11-1 and all will be forgiven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is hard to describe actually. I'm sure the FSU and UF fans are feeling dissatisfied this year too, but the difference between them and Bulls fans is that they know that their future seasons will be better. We, on the other hand, all recognize from past experience (NCAA basketball tournament 20 year gap for example) that our opportunities for great seasons only come along every decade or two. When it appears that the team is set up for one of those rare great seasons, nothing short of that is satisfying to true fans like us. Even though we are 9-1 (stupid 4th & 24!) us Bulls Are We types tend to default to our normal expectations and start to see the real possibility (probability?) of not getting to enjoy a "great" season (i.e. AAC championship, big-time bowl game). Performances like last night's last 3 quarters only reinforce those feelings of here we go again... another USF "what could have been." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida hasn't been good for a while. True. But "knowing" it does affect their outlook as fans in a positive way. Just like Bulls fans "knowing" we won't be this good again for a long time affects our outlook as fans in a negative way. I for one hope UF, FSU, Miami, and Orlando U. are terrible every season for the rest of my life and that all the Florida 4 and 5 stars come to USF instead, but I think we all "know" that isn't happening. 🤘 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what we lose, but I still think we'll be good, just different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
