South Florida Bulls

South Florida comes into this game with an impressive and efficient defensive record, though their offense has been lacking. Despite their successful shooting performance in their last game, the Bulls average just short of 77 points per game, rank #267 in shooting overall, and have cashed in under tickets in nine of their last 12 lined games. . @1kasean with the steal and the SLAM DUNK😤 #HornsUp 🤘| #EDGE pic.twitter.com/vHoorbyT5N

USF and UAB Neck-and-Neck For Conference Clash: Defensive Turnover Percentage Holds Key to Victory

USF and UAB are closely matched, with the Pomeroy Ratings placing South Florida at 143rd and UAB at 166th overall. UAB has a better overall offensive rating, but the Bulls have the stronger defensive rating. Additionally, the Bulls have a much more challenging overall schedule assigned at #231. Turnover percentage will be key to deciding the victor as USF ranks No. 47 in defensive turnover percentage by forcing 14.8 miscues per game (#41), while UAB is early on in offensive turnover percentage, losing possession of the basketball 12+ times per game (#156). With projected odds near a pick ‘em, it's likely USF's ability to value possessions will allow them to remain undefeated in this conference clash.
