When was Scott’s hire presser? Every season he is here our elimination gets earlier and earlier. We are not even done with this season and have already been eliminated for next season. I think that’s a first in the college world.

That would be October 29th of 2022.

Yup... this is the only second time USF has been 1-7, but the 7th loss came later in 2020.

I would guess - before today - 2020, having won only the opening game against Citadel (September 12th) and amassing seven losses by November 14th (Houston). 2022 - as of today - safe to assume that we're on track to be eliminated from bowl contention as of the seventh loss of the season effective October 29th.
