I really thought this was going to lead to a #CancelFrancoisSr but damn, it looks like his forces are going to be doubling down behind their God. This makes this season that much more interesting.

#9 USF (3-0, 2-0) | 14 | 17 | 14 | 17 || 62

Bulls hand Buckeyes worst shutout loss in school history since 1993
USF entered the game with plenty of off the field concerns and scandal but at the end of the game, it was the Ohio State Buckeyes coaching staff that was under scrutiny.

The Buckeyes chose to punt it three times on fourth and short in the first half while USF put together two separate scoring drives of thirteen and fourteen plays in the first half alone to rout Ohio State 62-0 on Saturday night in Tampa, the program's worst defeat since losing 28-0 to Michigan in 1993.

Ohio State head coach Luke Fickell credited the Bulls' home field advantage for the decision to punt it during those fourth and short situations.

"It was a hectic environment," said Fickell after the game of the crowd, "A lot of noise and I didn't feel like putting us out there and try to run a clean operation with no penalties, false start or a bad snap, whatever, I didn't like our chances there."

Down 28-0, Ohio State had a chance to put points on the board when Brian Anderson was stripped at the USF 44-yard line on a sack by Rick Hunter and the ball was recovered by Ron Cox and returned to the Ohio State 8-yard line with nine seconds left in the game.

Jeff Jones completed his third touchdown pass of the half with a touch pass to Robert Givens in the corner of the endzone to put the route in full effect.

Editor's Note: While the current sliders I'm using led to some competitive games last season, it's become clear that after nearly a decade of playing this game, I need to continue to adjust the sliders in order to maintain a competitive franchise. Even with four national championships, I feel like this chise has done a good job of being somewhat realistic. I am posting both the previous house rules and the ones I'm currently using it in the interest of transparency as well as a way for me to track to see how adjustments are impacting results.
