TAMPA, SEPT. 29, 2017 – USF's defense has jumped on the national scene this season with an all-around impressive defensive end leading the sack attack.
Birmingham Bowl hero Mike Love has gotten to the quarterback a team-best 2.5 times already to help the 4-0 Bulls rank 13th nationally with 3.25 sacks per outing. Love is tied for third in the conference in sacks per game (0.75) heading into Saturday's conference showdown at East Carolina..
"He always does his job, he's always in the right place and he's a positive influence on the rest of the defense," said defensive coordinator Brian Jean-Mary.
