It's that time of the year where I get to bore you with another ridiculously improbable scenario about USF clinching something.  Last year it was Women's B-Ball getting to Hartford -- and it happened!  By my count, USF can still mathematically win the Big East's BCS slot, but would need all ten remaining conference games to play out exactly as listed below:

1) USF over RU

2) UCONN over SU

3) USF over UCONN

4) UL over WVU

5) PITT over UC

6) WVU over PITT

7) SU over UC

8 ) UL over RU

9) USF over WVU

10) UCONN over PITT

This leaves a five-way tie at 4-3 between USF, UCONN, WVU, UC, and PITT with all teams 2-2 against each other.  The next tie-breaker is highest BCS ranking, and since we would have the only 3-0 finish among these teams, it would seem likely that we would sneak in.  If no team is ranked, I think it comes down to a vote (where RU, SU, and UL cast the tie-breaking ballots).  Of course, if this scenario ever played out, no team deserves to get in and the Big East should drop to D-I-AA.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    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.
