The South Florida team's shooting accuracy was on display with an impressive field goal percentage of 46 percent from a total of 63 attempts. Their prowess from beyond the arc was also notable as they made seven out of seventeen three-point attempts, translating to a solid 41 percent success rate. The Bulls were equally effective from the free-throw line with an admirable conversion rate of 83 percent.


On defense, the Bulls managed to keep their slate clean without any blocks but compensated with six steals over the course of play. They also maintained discipline by committing only ten personal fouls during the game.


A key aspect contributing to their victory was ball movement; South Florida amassed a total of seventeen assists compared to nine by St. Francis (BKN). This teamwork helped them achieve an assist-turnover ratio of 1.89 which is indicative of efficient playmaking and ball handling.


In terms of rebounding, South Florida outperformed St. Francis (BKN) by securing thirty-three rebounds – twenty-two defensive and nine offensive – while limiting their opponents to thirty rebounds overall.


The Terriers did put up resistance with twelve three-pointers made out of twenty-four attempts resulting in a fifty percent completion rate from long range. They also blocked seven shots and had four steals but were unable to convert these efforts into enough points on offense due mainly to twenty-one turnovers which allowed South Florida twenty-four points off turnovers.


Despite being able to make eighty percent free throws, it wasn't enough for St. Francis (BKN) as they struggled inside against South Florida's defense which limited them to just ten points in paint compared with forty by the Bulls.


Looking ahead for fans eager for more action from their team: The next challenge for South Florida will be against UMass Minutemen at Yuengling Center located at Tampa FL on November 30th where fans can catch all live action via ESPN+ network broadcast starting at midnight Eastern Time according to international standard time notation.
