Once upon a time, the South Florida Bulls were a respected program and perennial bowl team. From 2005 through 2010, South Florida went bowling every College Football odds season. Also, that was the cast from 2015 through 2018. However, the Bulls have gone three straight seasons without a winning record or bowl bid. Second-year head coach Jeff Scott arrived with great fanfare from Clemson. The theory was that he was trained in a national championship program. Scott is yet to apply those lessons to USF. Now comes the biggest challenge of the year vs. the undefeated Cincinnati Bearcats.
