The highlight of the day is the USF Bulls Football Green & Gold Bowl, the first-ever scrimmage of its kind on campus. In addition to the scrimmage, baseball, softball and women's soccer will also be in action.

In addition, all students can vote on the design of next year's SBC Under Armour t-shirt. There are three different designs to choose from.
In 2010, Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio officially declared April 9 as USF Day. Founded as a celebration of USF in Tampa, the event was expanded this year to include all campuses in the USF system, including Polytechnic, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota-Manatee. The campuses will host student-focused events in the days prior to converging on the Tampa campus for Saturday's day of events.
USF Day will kick off at 11:00 a.m. with the USF Veterans on the Green Golf Classic at The Claw at USF, where pre-registered participants will swing their clubs to raise funds to assist student veterans with financial difficulties. Softball and women's soccer fans will enjoy early afternoon games and food, games and music at the USF Day Festival, beginning at 2:00 p.m. at the field adjacent to the Soccer and Track Stadium. At 5:00 p.m., USF Bulls football fans will stampede the Soccer and Track Stadium to watch the Bulls football team scrimmage in the Green & Gold Bowl. Following the Bowl at 7:00 p.m, participants can choose to head to the Baseball/ Softball Complex to root on Bulls baseball or to the Meadows to enjoy Bullstock.
