After letting a close one slip away against the Memphis Tigers last Thursday, the football team must find a way to recover ahead of its game against the No. 17 South Florida Bulls on Saturday – the toughest opponent the Cougars will face in 2017.
The Bulls enter the weekend tilt riding a nation-leading, 12-game winning streak, threatening to embarrass the Cougars should they fail to show up mentally. Letdowns have been nonexistent since the arrival of former Texas head coach Charlie Strong who has the Bulls building on the 11-win season they earned last year.
Although led by senior quarterback Quinton Flowers, the USF offense boasts some of the top talent in the country.
