Tight end Okolie makes first career catch
Redshirt freshman walk-on tight end Quincy Okolie had made his first career catch, a 19-yard grab across the middle from Matt Grothe to set USF up on the Oregon 18-yard line. Okolie (oh-KOHL-ee), from West Palm Beach Central, had played sparingly in seven games before today's game.
Times sportswriter Greg Auman, who covers USF, will post news and thoughts on the Bulletin and we invite your participation in the comments area.
Why in this big game is this kid in there. When I saw 88 I was searching the program to know who he was/is. I don't think this was the time.

At least he caught the ball!

I couldn't think of who he was, either. But hey, he caught it. And then had a penalty. I think Gregory's bright idea was to compensate for the missing Walt Walker by using extra TEs. That really worked well.
Any one notice that neither Selvie nor Nick Reed had a tackle-for-loss?

I never saw the game turning out this way. I really think the most urgent need is BIGGER STRONGER linemen on both sides. We have to open up holes for backs and protect QB. WE HAVE TO START STOPPING THE RUN ON DEFENSE! GO BULLS!
