Memphis fans could make the same argument, but we don't because we lost.

A win here would be real good for the conference as a whole.

Got lucky they blew the slant pass. Defense needs to toughen up.

Let's face it: We probably are the best team. UCF beat us by the slightest of margins, we out-gained and out-played you, despite you playing at home and us getting hammered by the refs with double-digit penalties.

Little early to start drinking don’t you think? Memphis would run you off the field. Nowhere the best team let alone the 2nd best team. Don’t let facts get in the way of your story though

Honestly, it doesnt sound that farfetched. USF could have easily won against UCF @ their stadium.
Would have been home field for UCF too
1. I'm saying that USF could have won @ UCF's stadium
2. USF has more fans than UCF
What is with you usif fans and your alternative facts? 1. Yes, usf could’ve won, if they scored more points than UCF. 2. Where have they been all season? And the previous 4 years.

We look like mirror images. Defensive stops are critical for us
