Neither school needs each other. You have your BE to worry about and as long as we are in CUSA, then that is our priority. We will gain more national attention by winning the conference championship. Personally, I would rather schedule teams similar to what Boise and Hawaii have done to improve their national rankings. USF can finish 3rd, 4th or 5th every year in the BE and be content. Some of you are correct with not wanting to come play us at BHNS. We would never give you more than 2500 tickets. That is one of the advantages of having an OCS. How many tickets does Louisville or Rutgers give opposing teams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they will allow USF to have that many since they will sell.As for Del's question, UCF never tried to avoid a game with USF. We asked since day 1 and Leavitt avoided it like the plague. I still think he's sore from when he was told he wasn't the right fit for an assistant job at UCF.(he was considered before USF came around) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good coach who got in trouble for something stupid(cell phone incident). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF has never finished 5th in the BE. 2005: Tied for 3rd. 2006: 4th or 3rd depending how you look at it (there were 2 teams tied for 2nd and USF finished right after that). 2007: Again tied for 3rd. USF would not be happy finishing 5th. I bet most pundits will put us as one of the preseason favorites in 08, expected to finish anywhere from 1-3 along with WVU and Cincy. If we win sun bowl, we'll be preseason ranked around 15th or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF will have an annual game with Miami, and UCF should schedule an annual game with an up and coming FAU team. There you go, problem solved. FAU is even building another BHNS, so UCF will feel right at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, what does preseason ranked 15th get you? Trophy? More BCS money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
