If you live in the state of Florida and someone refers to "South FLorida" people think West Palm, Ft Lauderdale, & Miami area. Not Tampa, which is on the west coast of FL and 4 hours north.
Please no one take offense to USF, its a great school. The name just bothers me!

The University of South Florida will no longer be called "South Florida" for this exact reason. We will be known as
USF (not to be confused with the University of San Francisco, whose colors also happen to be green and gold, like ours), or the
University of South Florida. Nothing else. This overhaul goes along with our complete new athletic logos and colors. We used to be dark green and bright yellow gold, but now are more spruce green and dark gold. We even have a new bull logo
I miss Rocky!
