South Florida Bulls Face Off Against Alabama Crimson Tide in Women's Basketball at Foster Auditorium

In a recent women's basketball matchup, the South Florida Bulls faced a challenging game against the Alabama Crimson Tide at Foster Auditorium. The South Florida Bulls ended with a 41-70 scoreline, while their season record now stands at 0-1.


South Florida Bulls VS Alabama Crimson Tide

The game started off with the Bulls scoring 10 points in the first quarter but they struggled to keep up with the Crimson Tide who put up 17 points. As the game progressed, it became evident that shooting was an issue for the visiting team; they finished with a field goal percentage of just 24 and made only five out of 22 attempts from beyond the arc. Despite these challenges, they showed resilience on defense by blocking seven shots and stealing six times from their opponents.


The home team capitalized on turnovers, scoring 17 points off them compared to just six for the Bulls. The Alabama team also dominated inside, scoring 38 points in paint which contributed significantly to their victory. Their shooting was more effective overall as well; they had a field goal percentage of nearly double that of South Florida at around 44 percent and made half of their two-point attempts.


Rebounding was another area where South Florida struggled; although they pulled down a total of 37 rebounds, it paled in comparison to Alabama's impressive haul of 48. This discrepancy played into one key aspect where Alabama excelled: second-chance points, where they outscored South Florida by six.


One bright spot for South Florida was free throw accuracy – sinking eight out of twelve shots gave them a free throw percentage close to 67 percent which surpassed that of Alabama's at around half successful attempts from the line.


Looking ahead after this tough loss on foreign courts, fans can catch The South Florida Bulls back in action when they host North Florida Ospreys at Yuengling Center located in Tampa on November 19th at around noon local time. While there won't be any broadcast networks covering this event live, supporters will surely be eager to see how their team responds after this challenging encounter.
