USF has a chance to make these people wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One did pick Cincy to beat Rutgers though which is not that far fetched. Cincy is not going to be easy for Rutgers tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our best win is over a bad Pitt team. We've beaten 1 team that will see a bowl game (Pitt).To expect anyone to pick USF @ Louisville, looking at our road record, our terrible schedule, and the fact that UL is coming of a loss yet still in it for a BCS bowl is a tad rediculous.

We've beaten 1 team that will see a bowl game (Pitt).That "bad" Pitt team was on the verge of cracking the Top 25 this year before losing to Rutgers.Just as you're tired of people trying to justify the Big East's place in the NC game over a 1-loss SEC team, I'm tired of people minimizing some of the more notable accomplishments that USF has achieved this year.

Knight_Light Posted November 18, 2006 Group: UCF Knights Topic Count: 207 Content Count: 2,276 Reputation: 9 Days Won: 0 Joined: 08/04/2000 Share Posted November 18, 2006 >  No respect at all....  http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/expertpicks FYI...Vegas has had UL a -17 pt fav almost all week. Some books now have UL at -17.5 and one has it at -18. I think UL is getting action for several reasons: 1) UL plays MUCH better at home 2) UL coming off a tough loss on the road at Rutgers 3) Because of all the Top 10 losses last week, UL can almost lock up a BCS Bowl bid with wins as big favorites in their upcoming games vs USF, Pitt & UCONN. 4) With all of the above, "style pts" are still important to UL, voters, and gamblers. But anything can happen (USF win, USF cover, UL cover) come gametime...which is why the game is played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is asking for it to be given to us. But, we're not a horrible team by any means and we have a respectable shot at winning tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
