USF-WVU highest-ranked ESPN Friday game

Friday night's USF-West Virginia showdown at Raymond James Stadium will be only the second Friday night game ever on ESPN's networks to feature two ranked teams, and never before has a Friday game on ESPN or ESPN2 featured teams ranked as high as No. 5 West Virginia and No. 18 USF.

The only other Friday game on an ESPN network featuring two ranked teams was an October 2003 game between No. 13 Minnesota and No. 19 Michigan, according to ESPN's communications department.
