South Florida is outscoring opponents by 12.1 points per game with a +388 scoring differential overall. It puts up 88.3 points per game (eighth in college basketball) and gives up 76.2 per outing (242nd in college basketball). The Bulls post 17.9 more points than the Shockers allow (70.4).
USF is 2-0 with upset wins over No. 25 Boise State and No. 13 Florida, but the start looks better on paper than it really is. The Bulls have been living off big plays, turnovers and opponent mistakes more than consistent, sustainable football. Against Boise, USF won 34-7, but the box score tells a different story. Boise actually had more first downs and controlled time of possession. They moved the ball well but lost three fumbles that killed scoring chances.
