USF Bulls Athletics in Tampa

The University of South Florida fields 19 USF Bulls teams from its Tampa campus, 8 for men and 11 for women, according to the team list on the USF Athletics site.

The men's list on the USF Athletics site is baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis and track and field. The women's list adds sports the men's side lacks: lacrosse, sailing, softball, volleyball and beach volleyball, alongside basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis and track and field (USF Athletics team list).

Conference play shows on the Tampa schedules themselves. The 2026 USF football schedule tags American games, links to AAC standings and lists the American Athletic Conference Championship for Saturday, December 5, 2026, at 8 p.m. (2026 USF football schedule). The men's basketball program won both the American regular season and the conference tournament in 2025-26 (USF Athletics, March 15, 2026).

USF football plays its Tampa home games at Raymond James Stadium, and as of October 18, 2026 the Bulls have three regular season home dates left: UAB on October 31, Memphis on November 12 and Tulane on November 28 (USF Athletics 2026 schedule).

Raymond James Stadium is not a university building. The Tampa Sports Authority describes its venues as home to USF Football and manages the stadium, along with three city golf courses and the Hillsborough County Tournament Sportsplex. State law set it up: Chapter 65-2307, Laws of Florida, created the authority on May 28, 1965, and the agency describes itself as an Independent Special District (Tampa Sports Authority).

Through seven games the 2026 Bulls are 5-2 overall, 3-1 at home and 1-2 in the American. The October 17 homecoming game against Kent State ended 29-2 at Raymond James Stadium; the losses were 13-17 to Temple in Tampa on October 3 and 24-31 at UTSA on October 8 (2026 USF football schedule).

Source for every row: the USF Athletics 2026 football schedule. The Memphis game is the Salute to Service game and the only Thursday home date of the Tampa season, with an 8 p.m. kickoff on a weeknight, while the October 31 and November 28 kickoff times were still listed as TBA and TBD on October 18, 2026.

The on-campus USF stadium on the east side of the Tampa campus is scheduled to host its first events in fall 2027, at a project cost of $348.5 million approved by trustees on April 29, 2025 (USF Newsroom, April 29, 2025).

That figure revised the plan the Board of Trustees approved in June 2023. USF says the added scope covers design and structural upgrades for future expansion beyond the expected seating capacity of approximately 35,000, academic space inside the building, a vertical expansion of the Tampa General Hospital Center for Athletic Excellence and better locker rooms. The added money comes from interest earned on $200 million in financing already issued by the USF Financing Corp. (USF Newsroom).

The construction schedule in the same April 2025 release calls for final inspections in spring 2027 and a move-in over the summer before the fall 2027 opening. Trustees also approved $47.9 million in east campus infrastructure at USF Tampa, including a new lift station, water main and stormwater facility, paid from state Public Education Capital Outlay funds allocated in 2024 and carryforward dollars (USF Newsroom).

The stadium site lists 28 luxury suites, 22 living room boxes, 17 loge boxes and about 2,200 club seats. The TGH Center for Athletic Excellence, a 150,000-square-foot building directly connected to the stadium, will hold the Bulls weight room, team meeting room, coaches' offices and training and recovery space, next to the Porter Family Indoor Performance Facility (USF Bulls Stadium).

USF men's and women's basketball and USF volleyball play at the Yuengling Center, 12499 USF Bull Run Drive, Tampa, FL 33617, on the Tampa campus (Yuengling Center directions).

From I-275 the venue's directions run east on Fowler Avenue about 3.5 miles to the Bull Run Drive entrance on the north side of Fowler. From I-75, the Fowler Avenue exit is the first exit north of I-4, and Bull Run Drive is 3 miles west (Yuengling Center directions).

Parking at the Yuengling Center is first come, first served, prices change by event and cash is not accepted. Lot 22 serves Gates A and B, Lot 6 serves Gate C and the USF Federal Credit Union Club, and prepaid passes are sold through JustPark (Yuengling Center parking). The venue asks fans to arrive early for USF basketball games, which it groups with concerts as high volume events.

The arena's own facts do not match between the USF Athletics page and the venue's own website. USF Athletics says the former Sun Dome opened in December 1980, seats about 10,000 and covers 250,000 square feet; it reopened with a sold-out show on September 14, 2012, after a $35.6 million renovation, and has been named the Yuengling Center since July 1, 2018, for a 10-year contract term (USF Athletics, Yuengling Center). The venue's About page gives an opening date of November 29, 1980, a 10,500-seat arena inside a 55,000-square-foot facility and more than $43 million in renovations since 2000 (Yuengling Center, About). Both pages were checked on October 18, 2026; this page reports both rather than choosing one.

USF soccer plays at Corbett Stadium, at Bull Run Drive and Elm Drive in the USF Athletics District, and baseball and softball share a complex across the street (USF Athletics, Corbett Stadium).

Corbett Stadium opened in 2011 with a grandstand of nearly 1,000 seats and a grassy berm on three sides; USF lists its capacity as 3,000+ and its field at 120 by 80 yards. It overlooks the Lee Roy Selmon Athletics Center (Corbett Stadium).

The USF Baseball Stadium was built around Red McEwen Field and opened for the 2011 season. Capacity is 3,211, including a 1,500-seat grandstand with a shade canopy, and the design leaves room for added seating so USF can host NCAA Regionals and Super Regionals. The first game was February 22, 2011, against Elon before 3,126 fans. It shares a concourse with the USF Softball Stadium, and both came out of $35 million in USF Athletic District upgrades that also produced a basketball facility, football practice fields and the soccer stadium (USF Athletics, Baseball Stadium).

USF men's basketball won the 2026 American Conference Tournament, beating Wichita State 70-55 on March 15, 2026, in Birmingham, Alabama, after also winning the American regular-season title at 23-8 (USF Athletics, March 15, 2026).

The Bulls entered the Birmingham tournament as the No. 1 seed and beat the No. 2 seed in the final. The win took the Tampa team to 25-8, tied the program record for victories in a season and stretched its winning streak to 11 games. It came with an automatic NCAA Tournament bid as a No. 11 seed in the East Region, the fourth NCAA trip in the program's history after 1990, 1992 and 2012 (USF Athletics).

USF Athletics notes the 1990 trip came through the Sun Belt Conference Tournament title, also won in Birmingham, while the 1992 and 2012 bids were at-large; the 2012 team won two NCAA games. The 2025-26 season was the program's 55th (USF Athletics). Home games for that team were played at the Yuengling Center on the Tampa campus (USF Athletics, Yuengling Center).
