For those of us paying attention ... here is a recap of USF's BRIEF History ...

Walk on team started 1996

First game Fall 1997 as a Div I-AA team

2000 Transition year from Div I-AA to Div I-A

2001 - 2002 Div I-A Independent

2003 - 2004 Conference USA

2005 - Present Big East

2005 - First Bowl Game

2006 - First Bowl Victory

September 16, 2007 - First AP/Coaches Poll Ranking

Now if my numbers/memory aren't failing me ...

# of years playing: 10 (technically our 11th season, but we didn't play a game that first year)

# of years as Div I-A: 7

# of ranked opponents beaten: 3 (Louisville, WV & Auburn)

In just 7 short years as a Div I-A team we have gone from Independent to Conference USA to a BCS (Big East) Conference.

In just 7 short years we have scheduled and beaten 3 ranked teams.

In just 7 short years we have made it to TWO bowl games, winning 1 of them.

In just 7 short years we have been ranked as a top 25 team in the country.

Today Bull Fans, Alumni & Students should be standing proud. This is a big day for us and we should enjoy the moment ... pause now ... enjoy it ...

...

Now let's get back to work ... we have a lot of games still to play. North Carolina, you're up next! :-)

No, this is actually our 11th year of playing, 12th year of program.

acctually isnt it our tenth? 1997-2007 is ten years

No, that's 11.  You include both ends.

Right, it's been a little over 10 years since first game, but this is our 11th season.  Count each one.

Ok, let me correct my math ...

It is our 12th year (1996-2007), and 11th season ... the numbers are inclusive, not exclusive. :-) Thanks for those who kept me honest. What do you want from a guy who didn't get any sleep? haha :-)

Brings a tear to my eye I am so proud of all the boys and coaching staff, and all the support staff!!!   damm great day to be a BULL!!!!!

Very proud day to be a Bull.  For the folks that have been a part of or just rooting for USF athletics since the Sun Belt days or even before, this is almost  mind boogling.  You guys remember the days that they used to tell us we would never have a football team? 

This is truly awesome.  Proud of the team coaches and the entire University.
