Team had 10 sacks today. Could not find records on that but post game notes indicate that is a new program record. One of the keys to this game was to not let USF QBs get comfortable and I would say "mission accomplished"

Character showed. This team went out and played like a team suppose to win. Total domination over a very poor USF team.

I do think at home after 2 big road wins this team manhandles Tulsa. If not, major disappointment in the team and coaching staff.

I expect the leadership and veterns of other winning programs to keep this team focused and playing well.

USF also looked really bad. Tulsa is a lot better, and has a bye week.

USF undisciplined and poorly coached. The little things will kill you. Did you notice that when Barnett had to leave the game for a play after losing his helmet McCloud wasn't able to come in because he couldn't find his own helmet? Then of course the third stringer mishandled the snap for a huge loss killing the drive.

With that type of math, we should have an attendance of 55-56K next week with Tulsa.

That's what they announced?
I'm not sure there were 3K fans at kickoff. Sections around us were empty.
