USF Defeated!

The Bulls started out the season with a 5-0 start again opponents such as FSU, Western Kentucky, and Wofford. Their dreams of staying a ranked team were crushed when Syracuse brought their A game to play. USF led the first quarter 7-3 when B.J Daniels threw a 30 yard pass  to Jessie Hester for a touchdown. In the second quarter of the game Syracuse stepped up and managed to score two touchdowns, leading USF 17-7. On the last play of the half USF kicked a field goal lessening their deficit to 17-10. 

The second half didn't look to exceptional for the Bulls either. Seven minutes in the Bearcats scored another TD increasing their lead 24-10. With time running out in the third quarter the Bulls drove the ball downfield leading to BJ Daniels running it in for a one yard TD. The forth quarter was a downer. Syracuse came out strong scoring within two minutes of the quarter. From their things went down hill. USF gave up stupid fouls and started playing sloppy. USF spirits were crushed when Jake Rogers put the finishing touches on the game by kicking a field goal putting Syracuse up 34-17. I think USF could have played a better game but Syracuse played an excellent game and their performance defiantly deserved the win.
