Still doing some research, but I think this was the longest off-season in the history of USF football. 

Mathematically it was only 280 calendar days.

The longest off-season would be 1999-2000 at 294 calendar days... (Nov 13, 1999 is the earliest end to a USF season in history)

The others on "long" list:

  • 2019-2020 - 288 calendar days ... (Sep 12, 2020 is the latest the season started in USF history)
  • 1997-1998, 1998-1999, 2003-2004 - 287 calendar days
  • 2000-2001 - 285 calendar days

Shortest off-season is 266 calendar days 2013-2014 (Dec 7, 2013 was also the latest regular season game in USF history)

The next shortest was 272 calendar days from 2010-2011 (not counting the bowl game).

A few come in at 273 calendar days (not counting bowl games) :

  • In 2004-2005 USF did not make a bowl game was 2004-2005, from the end of the regular season on Dec 4, 2004 to the 2005 regular season
  • In 2005 USF made a bowl game, but from the end of the regular season to the 2006 regular season
  • In 2008, USF made a bowl game but from the end of the regular season on Dec 6, 2008 (the latest regular season game in USF history) to the 2009 regular season

Shortest off-season from bowl game to regular season was 2009-2010 at 245 calendar days - the International Bowl on Jan 2, 2010

I'll put you in for an award for doing your math homework, but there's a part of me that thinks perhaps my point was lost...or you chose to go a different route.  🤨

@Jim Johnson is our Hal.  I love it.  He thoroughly researches everything.  Very literal, very smart.

You will note that I started off my post with the word "Mathematically"

Does anyone know of any western Kentucky message boards? Curious to see what there fans are saying?

Also I recall in previous years that there was a list of opponent message boards. Is that still a thing?

I used to post message boards for our opponents, but I favored independent message boards (like ours). I think you’ll have to go to 247 or Rivals to find something.

Things you can do during Game Week!

I see absolutely nothing about drinking. Should be number 1 on the list especially as game day gets closer.
