"If you're the South Florida Bulls, the postseason plethora allows a well-merited joyride. An 8-4 record in the Big East Conference, with upsets of Pitt and West Virginia, earned a young USF program an extra slice, Dec. 23 against East Carolina (7-5) in the PapaJohn's Bowl."

Well-merited...

Nice to see a paper from the most inbred, tunnel-visioned city in Florida recognize the Bulls...

Were we not favored against Pitt?  I thought we were giving them points that day.  Either way it wasn't much of an upset.

I don't believe we were favored...Pitt was riding high when they came to RJS and folded their season soon afterwards...   ;D

Yeah, the kitties were 6-2 and had dismantled the tinmen a couple weeks earlier and we were supposed to be scared, remember?  We beat them and they failed to win another game including a loss to woeful UConn a week after we destroyed them physically and psychologically.

Am I going overboard?

Yep, the receiver flipped off our fans and it really cost them a chance for the comeback.  It backed them up on the two point conversion.  Pitt was never the same again.  Its funny how they blew UCF out though.  That was one of the ugliest games ever.

Indeed.  I remember watching that and thinking Palko may give us heartburn...so much for that...h eonly exposed the tinmen for what they are.

I bullieve Pitt was the first listed in the "others receiving votes" making them #26 in the country.

Just another example of how invalid the polls are.
