Once again the bitter rivals on the opposite ends of I-4 are being mistaken, but this time it’s not Alex Sink slipping up — it’s a news anchor.
In video posted by WFLA Channel 8 in Tampa, the anchor makes the slip up of saying “USF” when informing her viewers about the UCF playboy shoot during the weekend news in Tampa.
See the video that sparked all the attention below:

The UCF Knights and USF Bulls have been known to compete for recruits. A popular UCF athletics facebook group, UCF Nation, raised the point that showcasing UCF’s attractive women may help with recruiting.
The group posted the YouTube video to its thousands of fans with this question: “New UCF recruiting video?”
Not if UCF’s administrators have anything to do about it. They have apologized for the video. UCF coach George O’Leary is reportedly the one who authorized the shoot, although he seemed to suggest he thought the still photos would be the focus — not the video.
