USF vs. UConn Football: Everything You Need Again

TAMPA, FL – Barring any miracle, USF is now out of the conversation for getting into the College Football Playoff thanks to its last-second defeat at the hands of Houston. However, the Bulls still have a shot at their first-ever conference championship.

To keep its American Athletic Conference hopes alive, the Bulls have to keep the train on the tracks this week against UConn. The two teams were meant to face off in the second week of the season, but thanks to Hurricane Irma – and a dozen phone calls – schedules were rearranged to allow all the AAC teams to have a full conference schedule.

UConn comes in to the contest after suffering a 52-12 defeat at the hands of Mizzou. Heading into last week, the Huskies had been riding high from a two-game win streak with wins over Temple and Tulsa.
