Not being negative, I'm a realist. 

So you thought this team would steal a win against BYU, UF, or UL??

Totally agree; these guys haven't been competitive in years, and these OOC schedules are doing them no good.  Sure, have one high-level opponent, but don't put yourself in the bottom of the NCAA prior

It looks like it's setting us up for failure every season. We need confidence builders in the beginning of the season, not blowouts.

I've said if we aren't going to fold the program altogether, we should go stadiumless, independent, and play all away games against top teams. Embrace what we are and become the Washington generals of

I did answer your question, not that you're owed anything.  Check the last page.

You’re right you don’t owe me anything. I appreciate your response as I was wrong!  Thank you.

They should have.  Any team in Florida should be able to steal a win against one of those teams.  Any.

Middle Tenn just blew out Miami.  What advantages does Middle Tenn have over us.

Dumbing down the schedule is nonsense.  We just need to get better by any means.  That isn't happening.  These teams that we are getting blown out by are not Alabama or Georgia.  They are flawed mediocre teams.  Louisville was 1-2 and getting gashed.  We couldn't move the ball one inch.

We should be able to beat one or two of these teams every year.

Actually 2023 00C schedule is a little more realistic. Bama, of course they'll beat the brakes off us. But then we have FAMU Western Kentucky and UCONN. Absolutely no excuse to not start the season 3 and 1 next year. Oh man I'm already looking to next year SMH

Gainesville sucks so I will agree with that but both BYU & UL I didn’t see USF on that level coming into this season

The OOC schedule is not the problem. Playing UL like a cold limp fish isn't UL's fault, it is ours. 

If we try to "weaken" it now we are talking about 10 years out. Who knows who will be good or bad in 10 years. We could be way off. We also will need all the big OOC wins we can get if we ever figure out a way to be good again and want to avoid the Boise State problem (crush it in conference, only occassionally had top notch OOC wins)

WKU won 73-0 today.  We will lose to WKU unless something changes.  We will beat UConn by a TD or so and win the FCS game so there's that.

The schedule planning is fine.  USF needs the money to cover for facility upgrades, (e.g., IPF OCS) in hopes to get better talent; player-wise coaching-wise or just wise-wise. Unfortunately this will cost USF record-wise, fan-wise and other-wise.
