#7 – South Florida Bulls

The South Florida Bulls pulled off a pair of September upsets by going on the road to knock off #17 Auburn then taking down fifth-ranked West Virginia at home two weeks later. The Bulls suddenly found themselves ranked second in the nation, and people were talking about the very real possibility of USF in the BCS. However, a midseason swoon that included losses to Rutgers, Connecticut, and Cincinnati ended those dreams. Still, the fact that the Bulls were in the national title discussion was quite a surprise.

They are classified as upsets when a lower ranked team beats a higher ranked team.  Therefore if we beat Kansas or WVU they will still most likely fall into the upset category.

They just won’t be as surprising to most people.

And is the KU responsible for the scores of children he'll probably eat?

Though seriously, he went to High School with my dad in New Castle Pennsylvania.  I found that out and thought it was a humorous coincidence.

I don't think we ever really have snuck up on any team, just their fans and the press.  Coaches and players watch film, they know if a team has talent.

True. They may be upsets technically but the way I see it. If anybody beats us this year they upset us. Thats how I feel with the exception of a very good kansas team and Wvu because they will be ranked higher but we know we should beat both.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
