We've not talked about it much on this board, but how were you acting when the Bulls got to #2?

I was in another world --couldn't get anything done in real life. Everything for those few weeks were about the Bulls!

What a GREAT couple of weeks!  I would say it was the BEST few weeks as a Bulls fan. I think I was so happy that it was even difficult to sleep.  ;D

I would say "ditto." I could not even comprehend the real nature of the situation...

I saw a friend that morning (not a bulls fan) after the polls came out and he was like "how hard is it to go from this (giving the bulls sign) to this (making a #2)?" I didn't even get it. I was freak'n on cloud nine to say the least. Hope it happens again soon...

Yeah, it was very hard to focus on real life. There were so many articles and publishings that I was desperate to read. It was during my 2nd to last semester of college and I barely did any schoolwork. After we lost to Rutgers, I was so upset I didn't go to classes. But it was a good couple weeks.

i was on cloud 9 after Auburn, then after WVU...

but in all honesty i wasn't comfortable with the Bulls being #2...  too much, too fast.  it went to our guys' heads.

It was really hard to grasp the fact that another florida team (that wasn't Florida, FL. State, or Miami) had climed to the top of college football, much less the school I attend. I have always been a HUGE college football fan, and it was (at the very least) exciting to see South Florida climb to No. 2, and heartbreaking when they lost three in a row.

it was a tough time.  you want to enjoy it but yet you cant help but think about the "what ifs" 

on one side of things...i was glad we played on a thursday that week but at the other side...i didnt give us that much time to take it all in.

I had been telling all of my friends we were going to have a breakout year and everyone laughed their asses off at me. before the auburn game i asked "what chance do you think we have" and many of them replied 0%. hence we made a bet and they were mad at the end of the night. then after wv game they finally admitted we were much better than they could have imagined. its unfortunate we didn't maintain a good ranking but it did put us on the map. one step at a time... means we win the BEAST this year ;D

It actually made me a very defensive person when it came to talking about college football because everybody was saying USF didnt earn it and arent that good...made me furious

    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.
