TAMPA, Fla., (Mar. 3, 2022) – South Florida hosts the Memphis Tigers tonight in the regular season's penultimate game. It is also Senior Night for the Bulls. Tip-off at Yuengling Center is set for 9 p.m. ET on ESPNU.

The Bulls (8-20, 3-11 AAC) enter Thursday's game fresh off a 56-54 win at Cincinnati Saturday night, which ended a six-game losing streak. South Florida's defense is the second-best in the AAC this season, allowing an average of just 64.4 points per game.
