GAME DAY at ECU The Bulls will play their third conference road game (second straight) in four weeks and fifth straight afternoon kick when they travel to ECU on homecoming.

USF has won four straight vs. ECU and has never lost in Greenville (4-0). The Bulls have averaged 34 ppg in nine contests vs. ECU, failing to score at least 20 just once in a 28-17 loss in 2014. USF posted a 61-31 victory in its last trip to Greenville in 2017. QUARTERBACK HEALTH: Senior QB Blake Barnet (who started the first two games of 2019 and 10 in 2018) underwent season ending ankle surgery on Oct. 18. Redshirt freshman QB Jordan McCloud, the starter in the last five games, has played the last two games with injuries to his shoulder and wrist. Walk-on Kirk Rygol (6-0, 195) has seen action late in two games (UConn & Navy), completing 5-of-8 passes for 97 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions. CRONK FINDS A RYTHM: Senior RB Jordan Cronkrite has posted 382 yards on an average of 21 carries a game in the last three games to provide some stability to the offense while posting two of the top four rushing performances of his career, runnning for 148 at UConn and 158 vs. BYU. DISRUPTIVE DEFENSE: After posting three takeaways at Navy, the Bulls’ fourth game with two or more on the year, USF has 18 takeaways on the year to rank second nationally.

I want to believe but too much of a pragmatic to think we are anything else than a dumpster fire that is intent on becoming an inferno.

I don't really care too much if we win or lose. All I know is that I get to watch a USF game with my son, my wife (USF grad), my youngest daughter (future USF grad?), and my parents. The weather is beautiful here today. Life is good. Go Bulls! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the day! Agreed. My son was born the day before the inaugural game and has been going to USF games since he was a kid. Even though he’s now a senior at FSU, he’s still very much a Bulls fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
