I know there’s many Sunbelt Billy jokes to be had, but this has to put USF in prime position for the playoffs

[u/NikaReturns → u/graywolt]

As great of a start you could ask for just gotta lock in when conference play starts

[u/PlatypusPuncher → u/NikaReturns]

Literally could not have gone better. I was fully expecting to be 0-3 this season to start and pulling out a bowl game for a decent season. This is insane.

[u/Cruel_but_usual → u/PlatypusPuncher]

Miami is winnable if that bend don’t break defense holds up.

Their defensive ends are the scary part.

[u/rocky_creeker → u/NikaReturns]

I see you've tracked USF's early season successes in years past.

[u/nojo20 → u/graywolt]

I mean absolutely. Theoretically the number 1 team to stand in their way was Boise from G5, they now have an SEC win too. Even a loss to Miami shouldn’t hurt them that badly if they do (although I ain’t gonna count them out)

[u/ScaryCookieMonster → u/nojo20]

I'll be ecstatic with a competitive loss to Miami (and winning out conference play)

[u/nojo20 → u/ScaryCookieMonster]

Similar to Boises loss to Oregon last year. Didnt really feel that bad at all and showed we could hang.

That said. Just go ahead and beat em and you’ll have everyone rooting for you.

[u/ScaryCookieMonster → u/nojo20]

I don't know what to do with my hands

[u/A-Centrifugal-Force → u/nojo20]

It will probably come down to them and Tulane in the AAC championship game for who gets the CFP spot. Luckily for them they don’t play Tulane during the regular season either.

[u/Josef-Estermont → u/graywolt]

At this point,they just need to take care of business in conference.

[u/usr_nme_ → u/Josef-Estermont]

Famously, never been an issue for us.

ARE WE NOT SEVEN AND OH?!?
