I'm keeping my toes crossed as I write this, so I don't jinx myself or the team, but USF keeps moving up in the college football rankings - this time moving up from #23 - to #18. This is such a great deal for USF and one of those important moments in their history.
The only thing that did annoy and offend me, is the fact that the St. Pete Times replaced the news about USF's win against UNC with the Gators' win over Ole Miss on the Times' website. Now I know the Gators are the 2006 National Champions (I'm a fan too), but they are not the home team (last time I checked University of Florida is in Gainesville, I drive by it every single day - I should know! And the University of South Florida is in Tampa- the same general place the Times' is located - geez!). Anyway, I'm stepping off my high horse/soap box now - just had to vent about that.
UCF also beat Memphis Saturday - 56-20 (ouch!). I must have missed this story, but apparently there were no water fountains built in the stadium, until just this week. President Hitt was kind enough to help pass out water bottles to fans and new water fountains were installed before the Saturday's game. This didn't keep fans away though, and 42,153 people came to see UCF win again!
I continue to remain very proud of three Florida teams.
