They beat Illinois and GA Tech and were ranked as high as #21. Then lost their last 5 in conference. Did they have some injuries or something?

crap, 1 of those wkday games on ESPN.  too bad we couldn't get the facebook bowl on Sat on live-stream!  (sarcasm)  hahahaha

This is a great bowl for us but sucks that we are having a down year right now.

Great for recruiting, great for our players, great for our southern alumni, good opponent and good bowl overall.


This would be a good win to end the season.

[herdfan129]

Hindered by injuries and an ineffective offensive scheme, USF averaged 19.8 points over its last five contests. For the year, it defeated one team (7-5 Georgia Tech) that finished the regular season with a winning record.

Their board is not happy about it either. They have already chalked up a win.

[marcbuff]

I will be there. We have a large MU base in the Tampa Bay area.

We must have traded the first responder bowl to the ACC.

Great for geriatrics that want to warm up.   ;)

I like this bowl match-up.  I was afraid we would get matched up with a Sun Belt or another MAC team.

USF very interesting game.  They have been ranked last couple years.  Fast and athletic players. Our secondary will well ......   better stop the run and pressure or no chance.  But it’s USF.  Have some cred. No excuses not to win. Home game for all of our Fla players.  No homefield adv with this much time to prepare.  Homefield overrated.  It’s still the same game.  It’s fun beating teams on there home soil.  Very fun.

Agree- interesting match up. This certainly has more appeal than I anticiapated. Will be a challenge for sure.

[HaveUherd]

Get to find out where we stand vs the AAC and another relatively new program that left us in the dust.

My guess is not very well.

I agree. But there will be excuses from a few no matter what.

Good Bowl and matchup. I think we got lucky to get this one.

We should be very competitive against this version of USF.

[MUAlum2004]

As irritated as I was leaving Blacksburg Saturday, it looks like I may give it another shot.  Decent destination and what appears to be a favorable match up.

[herd2win]

Like the game wish it was a weekend...

Stadium had us playing Minnesota in that bowl.

[Mako]

Yep.  Good bowl and a good matchup.

[Buffalo Bop]

SF fans upset they’re not playing an ACC team. It looks like ESPN pulled some strings at the last minute for this matchup, per their board.

[herdorbust]

Looks like everyone is 100% back on the bandwagon lol.

[MarshallHerdFan99]

I hate this %^&*. We turn down bowl games against P5 teams to play in Florida for Doc.

that's exactly what i was thinking.  no matter how many games doc loses to teams with a pulse, 24 hrs later, the wagon's full again of people who believe he'll surely win the next 1.
