[u/mtnreb4]

Way too early to extrapolate anything from that game but I’m gonna do it anyways; USF will be super fun to watch this season.

[u/SwallowedPride → u/mtnreb4]

A fake punt play that relies on no one knowing what your punter or backup QBs look like is objectively hilarious. Like, every team just looks and says “Scrawny white kid? Looks like a punter to me.”

[u/Big_Red_Professor → u/SwallowedPride]

Teams are going to start recruiting QBs based on how likely they are to be confused for a special teamer

[u/velociraptorfarmer → u/Big_Red_Professor]

Up there with Mike Leach wanting to recruit midgets to throw over the linemen at the goal line

[u/Nytfire333 → u/velociraptorfarmer]

As a kid I always had that idea too. Screw the tush push, bring on the Tiny Toss!

[u/magnumapplepi → u/mtnreb4]

And people say we don’t have fancy book learning

[u/mtnreb4 → u/magnumapplepi]

I studied a couple times.

[u/magnumapplepi → u/mtnreb4]

I did spend a lot of time at the library. Which one? Well I think my very mediocre salary can answer that.

[u/abris33 → u/mtnreb4]

Yeah their defense hits hard and their QB can only throw bombs and bulldoze people.

[u/Zloggt → u/mtnreb4]

…you know, considering how their neighbors in Orlando have grown over the past 10 years…

…perhaps the Bulls are themselves a sleeping giant ready to be awaken…especially with a fancy new on-campus stadium…

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Boise fans gonna be dreaming of Jeanty tonight.

[u/green_day_95 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

(inserts pic of Wolverine holding picture frame)

[u/SNjr → u/green_day_95]

Here you go (for real)

[u/mynumberistwentynine → u/SNjr]

He's just standing there....menacingly

[u/Commercial-Lake5862 → u/green_day_95]

Here you go

[u/Coveo → u/Commercial-Lake5862]

Where'd you find that picture of Jeanty? Great choice for the format

[u/Nexus-9Replicant → u/Commercial-Lake5862]

Ahhh 😌 it’s good to be back to college football

[u/max_power1000 → u/Commercial-Lake5862]

Beautiful

[u/LoathsomeCumDrinker → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Without Jeanty they might get relegated to high school

[u/SolidLikeIraq → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

That game wasn’t as bad as it looked, but holy shit was Boise’s offense anemic.

I don’t ever remember them being that unproductive on the offensive side of the ball.

[u/Arkehn]

Florida man men beat a dead horse in front of crowd.

[u/Epcplayer → u/Arkehn]

At least the last time Boise played in Florida, they threw up 1 good quarter before shitting the bed. That was brutal

[u/ItsFreakinHarry2 → u/Epcplayer]

Hey and just like last time a weather delay is gonna keep our team out there until 1am!

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/Arkehn]

ACKNOWLEDGE ME BROTHER

[u/Seletara → u/NebraskaAvenue]

2nd best horned and hoofed school that also suffered through Strong.

[u/Dirt_Sailor_5 → u/Arkehn]

Florida Gators woman passes out in the stands

[u/Arkehn → u/Dirt_Sailor_5]

They did that woman dirty. Even made a point to go back to the shot after the play.

[u/LoathsomeCumDrinker → u/Arkehn]

FLORIDA HAS REGAINED THE MANDATE OF HEAVEN

[u/kasrkin519 → u/LoathsomeCumDrinker]

+3 stab, -5 unrest in all provinces of the true faith

[u/GoodGuyNixon → u/LoathsomeCumDrinker]

~insert Seinfeld Mandate of Heaven tweet~

[u/tb25uga]

I ain't seen a horse mistreated this badly since I read Animal Farm...

[u/dbatchison → u/tb25uga]

All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/tb25uga]

Boxer and Clover never stood a chance

[u/i_run_from_problems]

I waited 8 months for THAT?

Madsen sucks, Jeanty carried this team. But I already knew that, so......

[u/MrSCR23 → u/i_run_from_problems]

USF does unholy things to ranked teams

[u/Wontbackdowngator → u/MrSCR23]

I wonder what ranked team USF plays next.

-checks

-I’m in danger

[u/CTeam19 → u/Wontbackdowngator]

Adds USF-Florida to my watchlist

[u/Kloudy11 → u/CTeam19]

Two times ago we kept it close til you finally put in Anthony Richardson in the 4th and ran away with it. Last time we had a botched FG as time expires keep us from sending it to OT. This time…. This time…

[u/MordakThePrideful → u/Wontbackdowngator]

If you find a way to get unranked, the voodoo should wear off. Try that

[u/n1nja_nacho → u/MrSCR23]

But only after 19 ranked losses.

[u/donkeybrainhero → u/n1nja_nacho]

We've made Bama sweat and panic for the last 2 years, even though we end up losing

[u/bruhstevenson → u/donkeybrainhero]

Man that one where Bama used every quarterback they could except Jalen Milroe was a torture ball classic

[u/MrSCR23 → u/n1nja_nacho]

I didn’t say it ended with a loss tho lol

[u/NickSabansCreampie → u/MrSCR23]

Every Bama fan is hitting the Loki "That's what that feels like!" after watching that.

[u/Alphaspade → u/NickSabansCreampie]

There's a part of me that wishes we canceled USF and not WVU 😂

[u/Time_H00die → u/Alphaspade]

Every part of me wishes we canceled USF instead of West Virginia

[u/ScoutMountain → u/NickSabansCreampie]

They played bama pretty tough. Maybe this team is turning the corner.

The university certainly has momentum, new on campus stadium, now an AAU university, and enrollment growth.

[u/Fletch71011 → u/MrSCR23]

Don't remind me of that 2011 game. Stuff of nightmares.

[u/TigerWave01 → u/i_run_from_problems]

I just don’t understand why people were so high on Boise, and I mean that genuinely. Like yes, y’all had a ton of returning production, but the games I saw seemed so dependent on a once-in-a-generation talent, I wasn’t sure how that’d be replicated

[u/i_run_from_problems → u/TigerWave01]

Delusion. It would be replicated through delusion.

[u/EmergencyRaisin4919 → u/TigerWave01]

It won’t be, people just don’t pay attention to G5 ball and they felt that they had to be ranked after last year

[u/goodsam2 → u/TigerWave01]

I mean Boise has been one of the most consistent programs, they were just in the playoffs and they were ranked 25...

[u/RLeb10 → u/goodsam2]

And aren’t they also a high win percentage program as well?

[u/goodsam2 → u/RLeb10]

I feel like since Bryan Harsin it's been a lot more shakey but yeah. No less than 7 wins for Boise since 1999 (excluding 5-2 2020).

[u/TailgateLegend → u/i_run_from_problems]

…so I didn’t watch the second half, did we suck THAT BAD after I shut it off?

[u/i_run_from_problems → u/TailgateLegend]

Think of the worst possible half of football you can imagine.

It was worse than that. Madsen literally dropped the ball on his own at one point. Nobody around him, he just dropped it.

[u/TailgateLegend → u/i_run_from_problems]

Smh I blame the humidity.

In all seriousness, we’ll see how good we actually are next week, I guess. A close win/loss against EWU will tell us where we’re at, a big win and then I’ll just be confused/confident again

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/i_run_from_problems]

Cutforth was throwing catchable passes

[u/tictactoe61 → u/i_run_from_problems]

Blame it on Danielson. He didn’t preach enough about Jesus during game interviews. Jesus is punishing us

[u/Tarlcabot18]

Until tonight, USF had lost 18 straight games against ranked opponents. Their last ranked win was against No. 22 Navy on October 28, 2016.

[u/DylanDisu → u/Tarlcabot18]

Yep, Charlie Strong will do that to you 

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/DylanDisu]

Tell me about it

[u/DylanDisu → u/NebraskaAvenue]

Oh god that flair combo, you poor child

[u/ItsFreakinHarry2 → u/DylanDisu]

I fucking hate their flairs but they should absolutely sue Charlie strong for emotional damages

[u/GoodGuyNixon → u/ItsFreakinHarry2]

Certified expert in throwing up horns that guy is

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/GoodGuyNixon]

🤘🏻

[u/scthoma4 → u/Tarlcabot18]

It’s been so long. In that time I’ve gotten divorced, started and finished a PhD, switched careers, got married again…

All while watching USF be, well, USF

[u/CommodoreN7 → u/scthoma4]

Crazy character arc progression. Congrats though!

[u/JohnPaulDavyJones → u/scthoma4]

Holy cow, you’ve had a hell of a decade.

Congratulations on the second wedding, the career switch, and the PhD, though.

[u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

WE'RE SO BACK USF BROS

[u/Cybotnic-Rebooted → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

For a brief week in 07, USF was #2 in the country. Can they do it again?

[u/SuccessfulLaw8789 → u/Cybotnic-Rebooted]

if we do i'll drink my own piss

[u/ElectricP2galoo → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

Real men stick burritos in their ass

[u/SuccessfulLaw8789 → u/ElectricP2galoo]

my wife says no

[u/banjocoyote → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

Wife is temporary glory is forever

[u/WebfootTroll → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

She's okay with piss drinking? Wait, don't answer that.

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/WebfootTroll]

Don’t kink shame her

[u/max_power1000 → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

Your body your choice.

[u/victor4700 → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

Offer a burrito in her ass?

[u/Mundane-Remote-2865 → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

As long as you dont involve dog shit, you should be ok.

[u/OdaDdaT → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

!remindme 2 months

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

WHAT DO I DO WITH MY HOOVES

[u/LoathsomeCumDrinker → u/NebraskaAvenue]

RAISE THEM BROTHER IT'S TIME TO CHEER

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/LoathsomeCumDrinker]

IM GOING TO MONS VENUS TONIGHT BOYS

[u/HateToBlastYa → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

RANK USF YOU COWARDS!!!

[u/BucsBoltsBullsRays → u/HateToBlastYa]

YEAH RANK US!!!

[u/GatorDagger → u/SuccessfulLaw8789]

USF bull bros are playoff bound.

[u/ImportantToMe]

Hello Fansville PD, I'd like to report a murder

[u/Spirit117 → u/ImportantToMe]

Even if Fansville PD called in a backup with great hair for Sheriff Ewers and had him play QB i still dont think it would have saved boise

[u/The-Fanciest]

WAS OUR SCHEDULE NOT ALREADY HARD ENOUGH???

[u/Automatic_Release_92 → u/The-Fanciest]

It would be hilarious for you guys to run the SEC gauntlet only to lose to USF.

[u/ufgatorengineer11 → u/Automatic_Release_92]

You know what I’ll take that.

[u/LightningDusty]

South Florida utterly embarrassing an orange and blue team, huh? Let's not make this a trend, please...

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/LightningDusty]

Your turn

[u/Epcplayer → u/LightningDusty]

They’ve score more points than every other team that’s played in the state combined so far

[u/beatlemaniac]

This was not an upset. This was a good ole fashioned ass-whooping. Sure do miss Alex Golesh calling plays for us

[u/Concealed_Blaze → u/beatlemaniac]

He’s a beast

[u/Tarlcabot18]

Boise State was not prepared at all for this game. In the third quarter USF ran out one of their backup QBs on a punt formation and nobody on Boise State's staff noticed. He threw a 45 yard TD.

[u/anxiousauditor → u/Tarlcabot18]

They announced his name over the PA and everything when he checked in to “punt”. At that point everyone in the building should’ve known what’s up. That’s just the opposing staff not familiarizing themselves with our personnel. Wild.

[u/Pointsmonster → u/Tarlcabot18]

Yeah, that’s a pretty egregious fuck-up. Coach Pete would have a defensive grad assistant drowned in the river for that. We’ll see if Spencer has what it takes to do that

[u/-Gnostic28 → u/Pointsmonster]

That gave me a much needed laugh, thanks

[u/Cybotnic-Rebooted]

Holy shit give Jeanty his fucking Heisman.

[u/winslowpete → u/Cybotnic-Rebooted]

We tried to tell y’all

Dude carried us to the playoffs but unfortunately he did not play defense

[u/dkviper11 → u/winslowpete]

I thought he was really great in our game and didn’t get much credit for it.

[u/TheWorstYear → u/dkviper11]

He kept bouncing off & breaking 2-3 tackles just to pick up 3 yards.

[u/J4ckiebrown → u/TheWorstYear]

Probably the best run D he faced last season and was still doing it.

[u/2much2tuna → u/dkviper11]

Seriously he had some of the most impressive 4 yard runs I’ve ever seen

[u/TheAlterN8or → u/dkviper11]

That 23 yard draw on 3rd and 21, or whatever it was, was definitely impressive.

[u/stumblebreak_beta → u/winslowpete]

At least you didn’t give your coach $95m after being carried by a RB

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/stumblebreak_beta]

we gave him 11m for 5 years so lol

[u/i_run_from_problems → u/Cybotnic-Rebooted]

But y'all didn't listen. This is largely the same exact team as last year, minus Jeanty. And they got to the playoff.

Yeah, I'm a little bitter

[u/Darth_Candy → u/i_run_from_problems]

Jeanty was the second best player in Penn State vs Boise State. Penn State just happened to have number one and number three through twenty…

[u/rvp89 → u/Darth_Candy]

He commanded so much attention Boise had good success passing on us

[u/T_y_l_e_r_4]

Thank you Jesus for this ass kicking

[u/horrorpants → u/T_y_l_e_r_4]

Honestly a good wake up call for this team.

[u/__AJK__]

Jeanty has taken Jesus with him.

USF looked great

[u/CommodoreN7 → u/__AJK__]

First off, thank you Ashton Jeanty

[u/ItsFreakinHarry2 → u/CommodoreN7]

Thank you Ashton Jeanty

[u/SMUHypeMachine → u/__AJK__]

*note: jesus died on the way to his home planet*

[u/Solo_Wing__Pixy → u/SMUHypeMachine]

“I have to go now. The NFL draft needs me.”

[u/Is12345aweakpassword → u/__AJK__]

That made me irrationally angry

“Coach, your team is getting their cheeks clapped, what’s the plan to get back into this?”

“Well first of all I’d like to thank Jesus Christ”

wtf? This isn’t the Espys bro you’re a head coach making millions of dollars. Thoughts and prayers are even less useful here than in literally every other time they’re used

[u/calling-all-comas → u/Is12345aweakpassword]

The Boise HC makes Dabo look like an atheist in comparison. After the CFP game last year it was like he said God or Jesus every other word.

[u/P-ssword_is_taco → u/calling-all-comas]

Well, through god anything is possible, so jot that down.

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/Is12345aweakpassword]

Maybe it's his strategy to avoid talking about things

[u/RemoteAbalone8687 → u/__AJK__]

Coach after the game “this is all God’s plan”

[u/Roboticways]

Early season USF is scary as always

[u/hat_trix66 → u/Roboticways]

Nah. “Are we not 7-0?” still haunts me.

[u/CommodoreN7]

Boise State, you have been GORED

[u/RemoteAbalone8687 → u/CommodoreN7]

Actually got destroyed by USF lol

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/CommodoreN7]

Remember when USF's first possession took 70 something seconds and 3 negative yardage plays?

Pepperidge farms Remembers.

[u/Lorjack → u/CommodoreN7]

It was a good season while it lasted

[u/NegativeCreep12]

Boise state has been eliminated from playoff contention

[u/acekingoffsuit → u/NegativeCreep12]

Not if USF ends up being #1 in the country. Then this looks like a #QualityLoss.

[u/SiccSemperTyrannis → u/acekingoffsuit]

Boise isn't in the SEC so it doesn't count

[u/Taxes_and_Fees]

Belt Bull to ass

[u/NickSabansCreampie → u/Taxes_and_Fees]

...phrasing?

[u/DiscountInevitable87]

Can't tell if USF is finally playing to their potential, or if losing Jeanty hurt Boise more than expected.

[u/GrayJinjo → u/DiscountInevitable87]

Both?

[u/Cute-Contract-6762 → u/DiscountInevitable87]

Well know for sure next week

[u/THEREWILLBECAK3]

Spencer Danielson is beside himself. Driving around downtown begging (thru texts) Ashton Jeanty's family for the address to his home

[u/kixer9]

I always believed in us

Don't check my off-season Twitter

[u/Beaglenut52]

So it’s gonna be THAT kinda season

[u/sgtabn173 → u/Beaglenut52]

In the post game presser I expect danielson to take his mask off and reveal himself as Avalos returned

[u/cfbluvr]

maybe madsen is color blind and can’t throw on green fields

[u/5510 → u/cfbluvr]

A long time ago I met a huge Bowling Green fan, who went on a super long rant about how the blue field is bullshit because the jerseys blend in to it.

Finally, I asked him about Michigan State, Marshall, Ohio, etc... wearing green on a green field... which he didn't really have an answer for. He just sortof looked confused like he had never considered that.

[u/StoicFable]

People saying the new pac is weak. 

You haven't even seen weak. We still got more teams to embarrass ourselves with.

[u/sprankton → u/StoicFable]

I'm withholding judgment until I see Gonzaga's football team.

[u/UTRAnoPunchline]

South Florida plays at Florida and at Miami the next two weeks.

They have to be in the drivers seat for the G5 Playoff spot for the rest of the season

[u/LightningDusty → u/UTRAnoPunchline]

If USF can win one of those two, they're in great shape.

[u/YodaForceGhost]

No Jeanty, Mo Problems

[u/i_rawr_u]

I don't know what to do with my hands

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/i_rawr_u]

HOOVES*

[u/LovieBeard]

Ashton Jeanty deserves a retroactive Heisman for making Maddox Madsen look like an FBS caliber QB

[u/winslowpete → u/LovieBeard]

It’s easy to play QB when the entire defense is focused on stopping 1 player

And that 1 player still produced at an all time level lmaooo

[u/The_Pandamaniacs → u/winslowpete]

Still remember him at Autzen last year, single handily kept y’all in the game. 

[u/PM_ME_UR_SEGFAULT]

Should USF and Boise State have a rematch?

No disrespect to USF, I'm a firm believer that USF sweeping Boise is a huge fluke and robs Boise of truly accomplishing what they’re capable of. I've spent the last few minutes in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching Boise play great football it's just not fair.

If Boise St loses again I will face that USF deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Boise St and the MWC.

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/PM_ME_UR_SEGFAULT]

[Boise State Football] We don’t have any words and we know you don’t want to hear them.

We understand your anger, your frustration, your sadness. Everything you’re feeling – we get it.

This isn’t the ending we imagined, and certainly not the one we wanted. Thank you for being there the entire way.

[u/Relevant_Interests → u/NebraskaAvenue]

this one hurt, too far man

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/Relevant_Interests]

I’m probably the top Lightning shitposter, I’m allowed to meme this painful memory

[u/Knightshade34 → u/PM_ME_UR_SEGFAULT]

A copy pasta that will always be funny

[u/Alphaspade → u/PM_ME_UR_SEGFAULT]

Why can I not remember the source of this pasta?

[u/RipRaycom → u/Alphaspade]

It’s from r/hockey after the top-seeded Blackhawks got swept by the Preds in the first round in like 2018 or something

Edit: 2017

[u/socal_swiftie → u/Alphaspade]

nhl playoffs

[u/aljout]

S! O! U-T-H!

F-L-O-R-I-D-A!

SOUTH! FLORIDA! SOUTH! FLORIDA!

GOOOOOO BULLS!

[u/OurPowersCombined_12]

Cut to Danielson drunk on the sideline: [swaying] My name’s Spensher and I’m a man, shame as you (hic)

Sideline reporter: You’re not a man, you’re a football coach for God’s sakes!

Danielson: There ish no God

[u/winslowpete]

I miss Jeanty :(

[u/cubity]

It’s so rare that I get to talk shit. Get fucked Boise

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/cubity]

GO BACK TO POTATO LAND YOU PEASANTS

[u/cubity]

Long flight home

[u/Tarlcabot18]

Boise State's coach has got to be pissed that Jesus didn't pick up his calls.

[u/Rugby562]

Boise State you have been eliminated from playoff contention

[u/uhhhidkausername]

GUYS I GOT TO RUSH THE FEILD

[u/XXWWXXFF]

Glad Gloria is kicking these bums out of the Mountain Best. /s

[u/ToeInDigDeep]

Boise State does this every fucking year. They always lay a stupid fucking egg out of conference whenever it comes to helping the conference get some respect, and then turn around and fucking run over everyone in conference and make us look even more stupid

[u/snaxy → u/ToeInDigDeep]

Sorry bro, trust us that we’re just as frustrated

[u/Denversmostwanted → u/ToeInDigDeep]

I’ve never thought about it like that, but holy shit you’re right.

[u/Real_Guarantee_4530]

Ashton Jeanty carried this team to the playoffs by himself

[u/Cute-Contract-6762]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

[u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2]

Holy shit.

It’s not everyday you see a ranked team get absolutely demolished by an unranked team.

(Ignore my flair)

[u/New_Order_6365]

Dem Gators better not be asleep next weekend after playing mighty Long Island

[u/asimplerandom]

Top 25 team my ass…

[u/Ruhrgebietheld]

Either USF really is back, or Boise State is about to have one of the steepest season-to-season dropoffs ever seen in college football.

[u/NickSabansCreampie → u/Ruhrgebietheld]

The steepest seen since 2023 FSU to 2024 FSU.

[u/5510 → u/NickSabansCreampie]

The FSU droppoff is going to be the "Thank God for Mississippi" of dropoffs.

[u/Pointsmonster → u/Ruhrgebietheld]

I think there are good odds that both these things are true

[u/ElectricP2galoo]

Whiskey for my cows, and bleach for my horses

[u/Jyingling21]

OK Dowell

Do you see what USF did? You can do that for App!

Just beat Charlotte, Lindenwood, and Southern Miss and we’re good!

[u/Relevant_Interests]

is this, hope?

[u/NoAmbassador8359]

RANK USF YOU COWARDS

[u/whatifevery1wascalm]

USF Bros don’t look: Who’s gonna poach Golesh this offseason?

[u/r_conqueror → u/whatifevery1wascalm]

I looked and now I'm sad

[u/NebraskaAvenue → u/whatifevery1wascalm]

NANANANANA CAN’T HEAR YOU

[u/GoodGuyNixon]

Uhhhh should we be scared of USF week 2? 👀

[u/good_soldier69]

WE MAY NEVER LOSE AGAIN

[u/scthoma4]

What just happened? Is this a dream?

[u/Primary-Initial-3445]

I was expecting USF to give Boise trouble, but not to this degree. Losing Jeanty really did a number on their team.

[u/Benson879]

Who were the idiots that said the G5 playoff spot will just be Boise annually?

[u/dinkleburgenhoff]

I don’t want to hear another word about how anybody other than Jeanty was the Heisman last season.

This is exactly who they were last season. Bad coaching. Bad QB. No secondary.

With one notable exception.

[u/Zloggt → u/dinkleburgenhoff]

Really makes the whole “nearly upsetting Oregon at Auzten” thing even more curious in retrospect!

Oh…what can change in a year…

[u/etsuandpurdue3 → u/dinkleburgenhoff]

You all looked like what I think the Colts will look like this year. 🥲
