South Florida Bulls at Raymond James Stadium
In less than a quarter of a century, the University of South Florida has built a team from the ground up that can compete among the best in the nation. The USF Bulls play out of Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, which opened in 1998 and currently seats 65,618. Even though the Tampa Bay region is centrally located on the Florida peninsula, the University of South Florida was the southernmost school in the Florida state university system upon its founding in 1956. The Bulls are coached by Jeff Scott, who won two national championships as the co-offensive coordinator at Clemson before joining South Florida after the 2019 season.
History of South Florida Bulls Football
After years of grassroots support among USF students, and spearheaded by the assistant athletic director and Hall of Fame defensive end Lee Roy Selmon, the South Florida Bulls first took the field on September 6, 1997, beating Kentucky Wesleyan 80-3 in its first game at Houlihan's Stadium. USF played four seasons at the NCAA Division 1-AA level before quickly rising up the FBS level, joining the Big East Conference in 2005 after success in Conference USA and as a Division 1-A independent. South Florida's breakout season came in 2007, upsetting No. 17 Auburn and No. 5 West Virginia on their way to a 6-0 start. The Bulls were ranked as high as No. 2 before finishing the season with a 9-4 record and a Sun Bowl appearance.
The USF Bulls are known for the quality of their head coaches throughout their history, including Jim Leavitt, who ran the program from its inception until 2011. The Bulls have also been coached by such notable names as Skip Holtz, Willie Taggart, and Charlie Strong. Many distinguished players have suited up for the Bulls, including Jason Pierre-Paul and Nate Allen. USF's biggest rivalry by far is against in-state conference opponent Central Florida, with the Knights facing the Bulls on a regular basis since UCF joined the Big East during its transition into the American Athletic Conference in 2012.
I enjoyed the game a good deal. I wish more USF fans had been in the section were I sat. The enthusiasm was a little low.
Had a great time at last Saturdays USF Bulls game! The energy was awesome and the people were extremely friendly! I would rather go to more college games than Pro now that I've gone to the USF Bulls game! The marching band was awesome too!
Overall was a boring game!! A win is a win. I just hope the Bulls look better this weekend against FAU! GO BULLS!
Great game, seats were all the way up top, but could see the ball perfectly and the plays develop. Wish the crowd got a lot more into it, but I kept them entertained
IT was AWESOME! I will be at more games this year.
The game was great for usf fans as we killed the seawolves.
Great event. Fun time. Good crowd. I will go again.
Was a good game, was kindda scary at first but they ended up killing SB like I thought they would. Now the big test next week at FLORIDA!! Would be awesome to see an upset!!
Great Game. We are Family of a Band member and sat in the upper section which was great to see the Band as well as the game, except the home side of the field was closed and all upper section seats were the back side of the band. This was our first time at Raymond James and we can't wait to come back for more, but really hope next time our seats will face the Half-time Show.
