Give props when they’re due

We’ve talked about USF having poor attendance. They were averaging in the mid-20,000s for their home games.

That was then, this is last Saturday. When the 6-0 Bulls hosted Cincinnati at Raymond James Stadium, they pulled in an announced crowd of 43,708. Well done, USF Fans.

USF hasn’t drawn a crowd in excess of 35,000 since 2011. Now, according to the Tampa Bay Times, the crowd was actually only 38,121 (per the Tampa Sports Authority) and USF has been marketing the daylights out of the area.
