-----------------------------------------------
With the alumni in attendance for Homecoming Weekend, the USF Bulls scored 42 points.
In the first half.
Bulls head coach Malcolm Francois was able to play a lot of his backups and freshman as the Horned Frogs were ran out of Tampa to the tune of a 70-21 beatdown.
James Pittman and most of the Bulls starters only played a half, enough for Pittman to throw five touchdowns. William Stone remained in the game sporadically in the second half, scoring two more touchdowns including one with just four seconds left in the game after the Bulls had already taken a kneel on first down.
Francois took exception to the defensive lineman rushing on that kneel down.
"I didn't like the fact that they were trying to do whatever they were trying to do on first down," Francois said when asked why he called a play with four seconds left in the game, "I thought it was [expletive] so we can play that game."
