Pathetic defense gives up two third and longs

24-17 amd it may be 24-24 before we get ball in second half.

We’ve got ourselves a ballgame.

Tulsa wins this and UCF clinches the division

This needs to NOT be a ball game. Come on USF... blow these guys out and get yourselves ranked! How often do we have a chance to face off while both ranked?!?

Nope. You still have to win one of your last 2. Lose both, and you're out, even if USF loses tonight.

You would lose the head to head tiebreaker.

Really poor defense. We blitz 6 and yet the middle parts like the red sea for their QB to scamper through?

You’re right. I forgot we have 2 games left.

Tulsa win and beat Temple

How are we in this game? We were down 7 at the half to Memphis too, and we saw how that turned out. So I'm not getting my hopes up.

As Bob Diaco would say...

Terrible sloppy defense on two Tulsa TD "drives" that should have ended as punts from your 20 yard line or so. Just ridiculous how we are giving up 3rd and longs to QB scrambles and the like.

It would seem that Luke Skipper is "Quinton Flowering" your defense. lol

Yes, but he shouldn't be. He doesn't have QF's special talent for that. Our defense is just playing really bad assignment football, creating gaps that shouldn't be there.

Flowers can use his footwork to create gaps that aren't originally there, and slice through tiny ones that seemingly aren't possible.

Your guy can only exploit pretty obvious gaps if they are there (no offense intended, just how i see it). Right now, our D is allowing those gaps.

I gotta bad feeling. We're only an 8 point swing Tulsa's way to having our sky-is-the-limit season ending with a trip to the St Pete Bowl for Christmas, a fate worse than Birmingham.

4th and 1 conversion for Tulsa. With a walk-on RB. Yikes.

So I take it that's a negatory on tanking, USF fans?

Blocked kick. Big turnaround for the Bulls. No tanking that one.

Bulls make long FG after penalty kills drive.

27-17

I'm trying to watch, but the nearly empty stadium keeps throwing me off. I'm starting to suspect the crowd noise is canned. Great job USF fans, you make Pitt look like they are good at filling an NFL stadium.
