Fri Oct 03 20:20:00 UTC 2025: ## South Florida Bulls Roar, Sparking College Football Upset Frenzy

**Tampa, FL -** The University of South Florida Bulls are the talk of college football after a stunning start to the season, claiming victories over Boise State and the Florida Gators in the first two weeks. The Bulls’ unexpected surge has turned the spotlight on the program, which now enters conference play as a heavy favorite against Charlotte on Friday night.

Boise State, widely considered a frontrunner to represent the Group of 5 in the 2025 College Football Playoff, suffered a shocking defeat at the hands of the Bulls, followed by an even more impressive win against the Florida Gators.

The Bulls’ momentum coincides with a special promotional offer from Fanatics Sportsbook.

Sports betting analyst Michael Leboff projects a tough path for Charlotte, anticipating a decisive victory for South Florida.
