GAME DAY at Navy Riding a two-game win streak, USF will make its second ever trip to Navy and first under head coach Charlie Strong.

SOPHOMORE LBs MAKING PLAYS: Sophomore linebackers Dwayne Boyles & Antonio Grier have emerged as major playmakers for the Bulls. Boyles has posted a TFL in five straight games, including a team-high 3.0 at UConn and 2.5 vs. BYU, to lead the team with 8.5 on the year. Fellow sophmore Antonio Grier has 4.5 TFL in the last two games and led USF with two sacks vs. BYU. He is now tied for the team lead with 3.0 sacks on the year.
