South Florida at Notre Dame

S Florida can be dubbed as the greatest scare to ranked teams out there. They are always close against some of the top teams in their conference, the toughest conferece in college basketball in the Bit East - yet, they never win. But for bettors, they are the new gold mine. Yes, this team has lost their 12th straight (I know what you're saying "what are you thinking?!") - but wait: This team lost to louisville by 3, Seton Hall by 5, Cincy by 7, Villanova by 3, Georgetown by 3, Syracuse by 6 and West Virginia by 4. I just gave you 8 top 25 teams whom they've played tough throughout. How can they do this so many times? Well it's due to the tempo style of game they play with long winded possessions and suffocating defense. They are a 13 point dog to Notre Dame tonight, who has lost to all of these teams in similar fashion. I expect the Irish to win but they'll have a tough time doing it in this game which will be a true grind. Let's take the golden points here in this game where they will tough to come by and watch the Bulls lose another close one - but bring home the bacon for us. Two stars on South Florida.
