GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Nico Gramatica hit a 20-yard field goal as time expired and South Florida stunned No. 13 Florida 18-16 on Saturday to give the Bulls consecutive wins against ranked opponents to start the season.
The Bulls, who beat then-No. 25 Boise State last week, are just the fourth unranked team in the Poll Era (since 1936) to win their first two games of a season against AP-ranked opponents, joining 2012 Oregon State, 2008 East Carolina and 1976 North Carolina, according to ESPN Research.
Gramatica missed a 58-yarder with 2:52 remaining but got a chance to redeem himself after Florida defensive lineman Brandon Bett spit at a South Florida player on the Bulls' next possession.
