USF were unanimously chosen to beat Rutgers... they said that Ray Rice would not be able to run over our defence...

Nothing but love for your USF Bulls. Both hosts chose USF as their #1 and Said that OSU's body or work did not warrant a #1 ranking, but USF's did.

Nice to hear everyone isn't blinded by tradition. Let it be settled on the field!

Go Bulls!

I saw it too.  Lots of love for USF.  Too bad not everyone gets ESPNU.

Too bad last month when we beat WVU they wouldn't dare consider putting us in the Top 10.

And they said we were going to lose that game too..

And then after we won... they didn't care.

Now just cause we're media darlings, it's the right thing to do.

Zero credibility...

They also mentioned that they know the USF players have been watching their show since Leavitt repeated that 'Beaten like a rented mule" after the WVU game. So, it looks like they are now catering to the USF audience which is alright with me.

Just for info purposes about Coach Gottfried;

Mike Gottfried’s Career Highlights

• 1966 - becomes head coach at Roseville (Ohio) High School

• 1978-1980 - head coach at Murray State

• 1981-1982 - head coach at Cincinnati

• 1983-1985 - headcoach at Kansas

• 1986-1989 - head coach at Pittsburgh

• Record as college head football coach - 77-56-6

• 1990-Present - ESPN college football analyst

• 1999 - Helps implement GMAC Bowl in Mobile, Alabama

• 2000 – Founded Team Focus

A Game of Numbers

Football is a game of numbers. Total yards, time of possession, and third down efficiency are often measures of success or failure. For coach Mike Gottfried, the most important and motivating numbers in his life are four, three, and 56, and they have nothing to do with football.

“Those numbers are a date, April 3, 1956, the day my father died. I was 11 years old,†he remembers. “My whole life changed. We were three boys and a mother looking at each other after the funeral and wondering where we go from here.†Gottfried’s journey through life would eventually lead him to national prominence as a college football coach. He would spend 12 successful seasons as head coach at Murray State, Cincinnati, Kansas and Pittsburgh. During his four years at Pitt, he would win 26 games and defeat NCAA powerhouses Notre Dame, Penn State and West Virginia. He would finish his coaching career with 77 victories and parlay that success into a job as lead college football analyst for ESPN. Yet, when Mike Gottfried looks at his life, the wins and losses, the hirings and firings, April 3, 1956 is never far from view.
