UConn -2.5 vs USF....

[CL82]

USF is indeed our rival, much more so than UCF. Close games, with heartbreaking moments on both sides. Every game is competitive.

I suspect that if USF was 200 miles from campus instead of 1300 miles, this game would be all that we talk about. But to me, it's always felt like a real rivalry. I think I'll go out and buy a $6 trophy to make it official. Of course, I'm only going to put the scores of the games that we've won...

Depends on your definition of "upright". I'm sure I wouldn't try what you're planning. As a dad, and now first time grandpa of a 6 week old granddaughter who never seems to nap or stop squirming until all the adults retire, I'm ready for some downtime after about 2-3 hours alone with her. Oh, did I mention she's 15 lbs and 26 inches long already (dad's 6'7" and mom's 5'9")? Good luck with your plans though ;-). Admire the dedication.

You sir are nuts . I brought my 3 year old to two games. One kid, potty trained. We did 6 trips to the potty against navy and navy scored TD's the first 4 times I left my seat.

USF just had a O line guy Benjamin Knox arrested for shooting a gun at the outside of his dorm building.

What a moron.. I was biking around USF campus and I was near the garage where the moron shot the gun...I was at the Library doing research. USF has a beautiful campus ideal for biking. It is accessible from the local buses.

 

[HuskyDogArt]

Why does this young man need a firearm..... on a college campus no less? Puts the rest of his life in jeopardy, to say nothing of the other lives he put at risk.

Just crazy.

The guy is a moron. However, Florida is passing a concealed carry on campus law and if that moron from Northern Arizona or that Oregon Community College idiot tried that at USF, I would calmly shoot him.

Yeah? You been in combat? You think you know how you'd react? I have not. I do not know that I could calmly shoot someone. That's with lots of training... Lots. The fantasy that you people have with killing someone is disturbing.

 

[HuskyDogArt]

Good for you. They deserved it.

Surprisingly, for a Florida school, USF has always had a really good "club" hockey team. I doubt that we are going to ever make that into a full sport. However, I would love to watch UCONN play an exhibition game against our club hockey team, just to see what the difference is in the level of competition.

As a Florida resident, I think USF (with Jeff Vinick's - the Lightning owner, who is 180 degrees different from Peter Karmorons (Hurricanes owner) help, I think you will see D1 USF hockey soon. Vinick got the USF Morsani School of Medicine to build in the Channelside area.

See USF play hockey at Amalie Arena- the home of the Lightning!!

I have a cc license....I go to the shooting range 3 times a week...

Good luck! Took my 3 year old solo to the navy game while the wife worked. Had to leave early in the 4th because he was getting a little iffy. Passed out on the way home with his hand in a bag of goldfish.

From what people tell me, shooting a live human being is quite different from shooting a target.

I hope I'll never have to shoot a human, but between protecting my family or being a victim, I'll shoot a thug!!

Take the over 44.5 in the game. Our O will be on fire.

For entertainment only:
Other great bets:
GaTch -3
MSU +8
Clemson v BC Ovr 36.5 (Clemson will win the NC--bet them now and get good odds)

I hope these work out better than BYU, Missouri and Navy!

I worked at Deerfield School in Westwood! Great place. You're screwed on Saturday morning, though.

 

[Waquoit]

Not sure why Diaco picked UCF when we have a history with USF, but whatever.

I think part of the reason Diaco picked UCF is because UCF flat out quit in the bad weather last year. USF never did that up here.

They will. Do you believe?

 

[BugsyCT]

Wouldn't say they quit, but it looked like they wanted no part of being there. Recall a few times when their players slipped on that wet, icy field (bad kleats?). Even with that, after falling down by 16, they came back and had a chance to tie on their final possession.

You're right about USF - 2005, 07, and 09 games had typical fall New England weather (cold, rain, snow), and they never looked phased by it.

They only came back because we were so bad! We kept them in it despite themselves.

 

[whaler11]

I believe that you need to be a brave man to bet a BC over. That points and not yards right?

 

[Husky25]

I don't think Clemson scores 37 points. BC's Defense is relatively good.

It's all about Title IX.

Most schools are looking to add women's sports in order to comply with Title IX requirements.

The last sport that USF added was Women's Sailing, but that is not an NCAA sport. I'm pretty sure BC is one of the schools they compete against.

At the time, I believe USF really wanted to add Women's Swimming but, probably for financial reasons, chose sailing.

So, if we added Men's Hockey, we would most likely have to add a new women's sport to offset it and I don't think we are prepared to do that.

So...how long have you been in therapy?

You have guts my man, pure guts.

Sorry, not fair to you or the kids.
Why not hire a babysitter or two even to keep the kids at home?
