Maybe they have more talent because they reside in Tampa and the talent rich state of Florida.  The place we have to travel 1500 miles to recruit.  According to rvls they’ve finished ahead of us in the rankings every year and have multiple 4 star kids, but I don’t care what the rankings say I care what my eyes say.  They appeared bigger and faster.  Their DL was formidable and mostly rushed 4 all game.

I just went and checked the USF roster and the roster says they’re bigger.

Of 17 defensive backs on their roster only 6 are listed under 6-0 tall.  That's only 6 of 17.  *we have 6 corners listed – 4 of 6 are under 6 feet tall

Of 14 linebackers, they have zero listed under 6-0 tall (only 2 are 6-0 the rest are bigger).  *we have 12 linebackers listed – 7 of 12 listed as 6 feet or shorter.  3 of those kids start

6 safeties listed.  5-9, 6-2, 6-3, 6-2, 5-10, and 6-3.   *we have 8 safeties listed – 5 of 8 listed as under 6 feet tall.  2 are 6-0 tall and Scissum checks in at 6-2

We’re TINY

We’ve upgraded our speed and play making ability by leaps and bounds but now we have to get bigger.  We can’t have midget safeties coming up in run support.  Or linebackers that weigh less than the running backs they’re defending against.

Everyone railing on South Florida as being the worst team on our schedule needs their head examined.  They have 1 bad loss to Maryland.  FSU and Memphis are good football teams.

Frankly I predicted a loss at USF so I’m not surprised by the outcome.
