South Florida Bulls Tickets Information
South Florida Bulls
Playing its home games in Tampa, Florida, The South Florida Bulls are a Division I-A college football program. The team began playing in 1997 and had only one head coach, Jim Leavitt. After competing first four years as a Division I-AA independent, the Bulls moved to Division I-A in 2001 but remained independent. They joined Conference USA in 2003 until becoming a member of the Big East in 2005. South Florida has earned a lot of press coverage for their upsets of Top 25 ranked teams such as West Virginia, Louisville and Auburn.
The Bulls' starting quarterback for the 2007 season is sophomore Matt Grothe, who was awarded the Big East Rookie of the Year award in 2006 after being the most productive freshman.
USF won its second ever bowl game with a victory over the ECU Pirates on December 23, 2006 in the Papajohns.com Bowl. The previous year, USF lost to the NC State Wolfpack in the Bulls first-ever bowl game, the 2005 Meineke Car Care Bowl. USF's nine wins in 2006 matched a program record and has helped increase the media profile of the team. As a result, USF finished the 2006 season ranked #29 in the final AP Poll with 17 points.
Bulls football games currently air on the radio in Tampa on 970 WFLA-AM. Due to USF's affiliation in the Big East athletics conference, most games can be seen on one of the many channels ESPN owns, usually ESPNU or ESPN2.
Due to the youth of the program and the aggressive growth that it has experienced, establishing a permanent rival has posed somewhat of a challenge. Rapidly changing conference affiliations and a quick ascension through the NCAA football ranks have made an annual rivalry difficult. On the heels of upsets that have garnered national attention, the seeds of rivalry have been planted with Louisville and West Virginia, and to a lesser extent with Pittsburgh. Additionally, the University of Central Florida has expressed interest in establishing an annual home-and-home series, due to the close geographic proximity of the two schools.
Likely candidates for a future rival game include Louisville, former Conference USA before the Big East, West Virginia, and Miami as USF has announced an annual 6 game series with the University of Miami, to be played on Thanksgiving weekend. With UM locked up for 6 years, USF appears very unlikely to continue the series with UCF, but instead focused on potentially establishing a rivalry with Miami.
