The Bearcats (12-6 [4-2 AAC], KenPom #72, NET #83) travel to Tampa to take on USF (8-10 [1-4 AAC], KenPom #142, NET #158) as they continue their AAC farewell tour.

The Bulls are coming off an 11-point win at ECU which snapped a four-game losing streak where USF lost to the likes of Memphis (away), Temple, Wichita St, and Houston (away). The encouraging part was that each of these losses only came by a margin of 4-7 points.

Under 6th-year coach Brian Gregory, the Bulls are led by 5th-year Memphis transfer 5’9 guard Tyler Harris (16.6 ppg, 3.0 apg, 2.6 rpg). They’ll have a match for Lakhin in the post with 4th-year 7’0 center Russel Tchewa who averages 11.8 ppg and 7.8 rpg over 30 minutes/game.

One of the USF's greatest team strengths is offensive rebounding where they average 12.6/game (35th in the nation). One of their greatest weaknesses is free throw shooting where they are shooting 64.2% (337th in the nation) on just under 18 attempts/game.

The Bearcats are 3.5-point favorites on the road.
