How is USF not quad 1 at this point? What did they do wrong?

They are #92 as of today, and have been moving up. A road win over them would become a Quad 1 win for SMU *if* the Bulls rise to #75 or higher. (Quad 1 is different on the road--top 75, on a neutral court--top 50, and at home--top 30.)
USF is as low as they are because they started the season losing to heavyweights Central Michigan, Maine, Hofstra, and UMass. It's really just a function of their team not knowing one anothers' names at the start of the season, then they figured out how to play together.
