Next up is a Dec. 31 matchup against North Carolina State in the Meineke Car Care Bowl. Coach Jim Leavitt built the program from the ground up -- his first office was an abandoned trailer -- and near the end of the season was signed to a seven-year deal. Interest in the team has picked up, as evidenced by the crowd of 45,274 that showed up at Raymond James Stadium for the season-finale against West Virginia. Team speed was a strength (Pitt wide receiver Greg Lee said USF had the fastest defense in the conference), but Leavitt needs to build a better passing game and replace star tailback Andre Hall next season. MVP: Hall led the conference in rushing with 1,256 yards and was 14th in the country at 114.2 yards per game. Biggest disappointment: The Bulls had only themselves to blame for a crushing, 15-10 loss Nov. 26 at UConn, a defeat that cost them a chance to win the Big East title. USF committed five turnovers, allowed a 90-yard kickoff return and tried a trick play on fourth-and-goal from the 6 with 6:08 remaining, instead of kicking a field goal to pull within three, putting the ball in the hands of UConn's impotent offense. What's next: USF made the smart move by retaining Leavitt, who was a candidate at Kansas State. This program has great growth potential amid the fertile Florida recruiting grounds and is headed upward. Fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can fill the holes on the DL, then this will be a better D in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont disrespect fellow bulls. only the ones who arent diddies! all im saying is...someone complaining that their "diddy" nickname was stolen is like someone with the last name Smith complaining because someone else has the same last name that isn't in their family. and if you took that as disrespect than maybe you need a new "nickname" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
