South Florida Scouting Report

South Florida Bulls(hits)

(6-9, 1-2)

Last game: W 80-58 @ DePaul

First of all, South Florida is not that good, but we need to realize that anybody can beat anyody in the Big East; actually in college basketball as a whole.

The Bulls(hits) have no players averaging more than 4.7 rebounds per game. In comparison, DeJuan Blair averages 6.1 offensive rebounds per game.

Those are some good numbers.

However they do have eight players who average between 4.7 and 3.3 rebounds per game, so our guards will have to be active on the boards.

S. Florida has two good players: Dominique Jones and Jesus Verdejo, who are both guards. However, Jones shoots 40% from the field and Verdejo shoots 41% so we know they are going to miss shots. In order for Pitt to win this one comfortably, it will have to limit these two to under 40 points combined and make the other Bulls(hits) beat it, which S. Florida is incapable of doing against an elite team such as Pitt.

Cut the Bulls(hit).
