Going into its bye week, USF has been penalized 48 times, the most in Conference USA, for 392 yards.

Only TCU has more penalty yardage, 402, and TCU has played five games to four for the Bulls.

has to better than the following....

"There could be a lot of different reasons why people do what they do. I don't know," USF coach Jim Leavitt, who doesn't really like commenting specifically on penalties, remarked.

"Our guys don't want to make penalties. If we didn't have officials, we wouldn't have any penalties, but we have to play with officials.

"If they wouldn't make any calls,we'd be fine, but they will call a game," Leavitt said.

"We've got to figure out a way not to do the things we're not supposed to do. I can't imagine any player wanting to make a penalty, wanting to do the wrong thing. They work too hard," the USF coach declared.

"I tell them don't do it, work your tail off and I don't tell them anymore than that," Leavitt said.
