That's somewhat of a moot point now; have you seen the new CUSA? Not saying that the AAC is any better than the CUSA we were in, but at least we aren't in the new one.

Would that be the same USF team that Michigan state could NOT score an offensive TD against, the same one that gave up 53 to McNeese State (FCS)?

Second straight win, AND second straight win by not scoring an offensive TD

CINCY
But with Cincinnati turning the ball over four times, missing an extra point and having a field goal blocked, USF's sputtering offense didn't need to get into the end zone to do its part.

-- four field goals, blocked FG for TD, and INT for TD.

UCONN
two field goals, and Aaron Lynch returned a fumble 44 yards for a touchdown as South Florida beat Connecticut 13-10 on Saturday.

actually noticed it on my own. Remember I mentioned USF scoring 26 in a win last week without scoring a TD-I thought I'd check their boxscore to see how they did this week

From the looks of the national rankings of the teams that stay in the AAC next year it looks like C-USA is a much stronger conference in football and maybe even basketball.

What are you talking about? The highest rated team in CUSA by Sagarin is ECU at 65th, and they'll be in the AAC next year. The new CUSA is on the same level as the Sun Belt.

Yeah, because I would really hate to lose to both of those teams in the same season...
